Synopsis

Casimir Effect is a story of unrequited love set on a backdrop of temporal paradox. Dr Alice Sharpe has a choice to make, stay with her true love and risk the collapse of the space time Continuum, or take more drastic measures to ensure all of creation isn’t erased.

Alice is thrown through time and into her own past. She finds her true love in Dr Robert Cameron, however if she embraces this love she risks a paradox that could undo all of creation. She must lay low and buy her time until she can find a way to fix things.

Sami, a Syrian refugee in the UK, and Bryony, an aimless young librarian, embark on a highly personal quest to preserve a bell from a demolished Christian church. What begins as a civic protest quickly becomes a criminal case when they accidentally near fatally injure a security guard, and find themselves on the run from the police. However, our accidental heroes’ fate is sealed by a kindly police sergeant who is moved by their mission, and our odd-couple achieve their goal of saving the bell and reminding the town they both call home about the importance of remembering its own story.
