| Description |
A narrative driven and character-based work exploring contemporary youth cultures. Set in a filthy, run-down group house, where the seven housemates play and fight with each other, confide, deceive, bully and beguile each other as Kim Salmon perched upon a burnt-out car wreck, pulling riffs from his guitar. Into this world came an outsider, a sleazy, shadowy figure. Suddenly the game was being played by his rules. |
