Description
A man's body is found in an abandoned apartment on a cold, quiet day between Christmas and New Year. His friends are also dead, their bodies discovered in various locations across the city. Their stories are told through fractured narratives, pieced together from the fragments of their lives. We meet those who knew them, including Robert's daughter Laura, who becomes entangled in their world; Danny, who discovers the body and searches for his friends; Heather, who finds herself in a new place; and Mike, a veteran of the Falklands War. As they share their stories, it becomes clear that these individuals lived on the fringes of society, struggling with addiction, loss, and despair. Yet, in their sudden deaths, they are treated with more respect than they ever were in life. This powerful exploration of life at the edges of society is both intense and exhilarating, shot through with hope and fury.
