Fascinating, disturbing and compelling

The DV8 dance group, who specialise in their own unique brand of physical theatre, attack the British lad culture in this surreal and compelling film. Set in a pub, the 5 or 6 young actors and dancers express this disturbed and surreal world where emotion is unacceptable and beer means everything.

The graceful and yet perfectly ugly movements of the young talents draw you in, and the piece manages to be beautiful and terrifying at the same time.

Truly stunning.
