Project Detail

Accident

Synopsis

An accident takes place in a busy London street. A crowd gathers, panic and apathy ensue as private fears are made public in an elliptical and fragmentary way. Events cluminate in a moment of decision for one of the main characters, and we are left to consider the influences that have shaped our city life.
