Synopsis
“This film will be a Cult Classic” Tim Noakes- Edior, Dazed and Confused
“The craziest thing I’ve ever worked on.” Ceephax Acid Crew – Dance Music Producer
In this brand new subgenre of surreal British comedy filmmaking, Lorraine Willy of Planet Earth believes there's an ancient lost portal built by Amen Rah somewhere in deep Essex that leads to Sirius. As she explores, time, space and greasy chicken wings with her friends and family, will she be proven wrong by those who think they hold the secrets to her madness or will she be vindicated in her unstoppable quest for the truth?
