Description

A gripping, claustrophobic and intense psychological thriller follows Jonathan Stetson, an out-of-work actor suffering from borderline personality disorder. Waiting tables to make ends meet, he spends his nights drinking alone, plotting a return to the West End stage. Manic, unstable and highly impulsive, Jonathan is completely unaware of his condition, lost in the chaos of his own mind. When he turns to his estranged older brother for help, old wounds from the past are opened, sending him hurtling further into the abyss of his own self-destruction.

I am not my thoughts. My thoughts are not me.

Jonathan Stetson’s life has not turned out the way he envisaged.

When his advances are met with resistance, Jonathan spirals further into his own dysfunction and twisted sense of reality, developing an obsessive interest in his brother’s family, especially his young nephew, as he struggles to come to terms with a world that continues to reject him…
