Description
"A garishly real film noir [...] winding throughout the weird underbelly of a lurid Northampton fever dream." – Dan Cooper, Film Stories
From the mind of Alan Moore comes a new feature film directed by Mitch Jenkins.
A frighteningly focused man of many talents, passports and identities arrives at England's broken heart – a haunted midlands town that has collapsed into a black hole of dreams – only to find that this new territory is at least as strange and dangerous as he is. Attempting to locate a certain person and a certain artifact for his insistent client, he finds himself sinking in a quicksand twilight world of dead Lotharios, comatose sleeping beauties, Voodoo gangsters, masked adventurers, unlikely private eyes and violent women ... and this is Northampton when it's still awake. Once the town closes its eyes, there is another world entirely going on beneath the twitching lids, a world of glittering and sinister delirium much worse than any social or economic devastation. Welcome to the British nightmare with its gorgeous flesh, its tinsel, its luminous light-entertainment monsters and its hallucinatory austerity ...
