Perfidious Albion |
Contemporary Britain, a society losing its grip on truth and identity in a welter of social media hysteria manipulated by large corporations and unscrupulous politicians. People are trapped in multiple lives as commenters, trolls, fantasists, consumers and propagandists. Relating to one another on a simple human level and knowing what is real suffers. Overreaction is rife and violence is in the air. A few twists too many perhaps but an often funny tale which feels bang up to date.
