Apr 29, 2021
A brutal social commentary illustrating the complex issues surrounding class and problems that society doesn't know how to deal with. It reveals the selfish way humans attempt to shroud themselves protectively in ignorance, clinging to the pleasantries we manufacture in pretence that poverty, suffering and social malaise are not only a stones throw away.
Expect to be taken out of your comfort zone and confronted with stark reality exposing attitudes and prejudices within society and ourselves.
