Worm

Synopsis

When a detective arrives at a young girl's family home in order to investigate her disappearance, it soon becomes obvious he has bitten off more than he can chew.

Worm takes us on a surreal journey into a dark world filled with ferrets, dead mackerels and toothpicks; a world where the grotesque meets the ridiculous.

But when Eilidh finds she cannot go through with the termination, the pair are forced into an awkward, absurd and increasingly intimate attempt at preparing for parenthood.
