Synopsis

With the weather increasingly at the forefront of our news and media together with the idea that someone somewhere has their hand on the volume knob, End of the Street takes the original 19th Century Beaufort Wind Force scale and conjures a response, incrementally turning up the strangeness.

Poet and broadcaster Ian McMillan produced the poetry specially. His interpretation of the wind scale transposes the action into the familiar surroundings of an average street. Imagemaker Andy Martin produces a mix of animated graphics, 3D, live action, photography and typographics all underpinned with a bespoke score by composer Robert Worby.

Synopsis

A collaboration with poet and broadcaster Ian McMillan reflecting on his recent trip to Russia - a short visual poem. A combination of studio set photography, animation and motion graphics illuminate this thoughtful meditation on the notions of travel and identity.

Sandy's quest for independence is not a smooth ride. He faces suspicion and hostility as he begins his new life. But as his true potential is revealed, magical things happen. Lucy (Boo Pearce) breaks down her prejudices to become his lover, and a strange group of travellers help him in his quest.

Ultimately, Sandy achieves his dream, though not in the way he had planned!

But as the team set up, things start to go horribly wrong. Sarah becomes convinced that they are not alone, and as the panic rises the asylum begins to take on a life of its own.

Walls disappear, they reappear and the group are forced further and further into the mysterious depths of the building - where something ancient and sinister is waiting for them.

The quest for fun is about to become a race to stay alive.
