Jason's World

A surreal tale of the London underworld.

A single, innocent object (small enough to slip into a pocket, harmless enough to belong to a child) falls into the city's hidden veins.

From the moment it appears, nothing stays the same.

It moves through the tunnels, the derelict estates, the night-bus graveyards, passed between hands that have forgotten how to touch another person without suspicion or violence.

Wherever it goes, it tears open old wounds and solders new bonds in the same breath.

They are all insane, these nocturnal citizens, starving for the simplest thing: another human being.

The innocent object gives them exactly that (for a night, for an hour, for the length of one whispered sentence).

It costs them nothing and everything.

Alliances form like fever dreams.

Enemies become confessors.

Lovers swear oaths they will regret the moment the effect fades.

But every touch arrived at through deception curdles.

Every reunion stitched together by a lie begins to rot from the inside.

The more perfect the comfort, the more savage the loneliness that follows when the illusion flickers. Beneath their appearances: was the lie, for one brief moment, close enough?

Well I would say this, but it is good fun and the characters and their conflict builds throughout... A quirky, London low budget movie. Their might well be a tv series here, as Jason has a history of madness and risk... The triangle of the good, Jason, Bad, Molly and the indifferent, Daniel works particularly well.
