"Original and witty and goes like stink." -- Greg Loftin, director, Saxon.
Cool media man Root Wilson almost has it all - the London radio show, the movie deal, the dream girl. But when deceased film director Philip Hegley reappears on the scene, Root turns detective. As he searches for the truth about Hegley, he is drawn into the capital's dark side, leading him to risk everything. Intricately plotted and shot through with the mood of a basement jazz club at 1am, this stylish thriller riffs on classic cinema and transforms London into a contemporary noir landscape full of fast-talking antagonists, original and smart femmes fatales, and a River Thames that plays as big a part in the action as any other character.
