Dream On

Part black comedy and flashlight noir thriller, part meditation on the stories that connect up the frayed wires in the business of living, this fictional debut experiments with genre boundaries and paints detailed portraits of its characters. There is Digger Davies and his untimely death; the award-winning photographer whose return home will become a quest for his own forgotten identity and compromised life; the thwarted politician in a hospital bed writing his own obituary; and a beautiful girl caught in time, alive in an old man's memory.
