STRANGE TASTE

He didn’t know what to do with her at first. Her behaviour was erratic and daring. Her love, the tactile touch, their passion, intoxicated him. Then, when she came to him, he smelt the animal scent on her, she savoured his strange taste, and they lost all self-control.

– Strange Taste, an Audiovisual Drama  (18+) 

IS IT LOVE?

It’s five-sixteen, rush hour, Poet’s Day time for Stretch Class. An assassin faces certain death. Chaos breaks out in a remote medical research facility when a clone escapes. A couple struggle to come to terms with the emotional effects of the pandemic. A homicidal religious maniac shelters homeless young men in her bedsit. A chance encounter abroad leads to love and enjoyment. A bizarre cult encounters unexpected danger off a tropical beach. An astronaut becomes emotionally attached to his life support system. A stress victim suffers from incurable bristling. A deranged wife prepares to kill her husband with his garden spade…

Is It Love? they seek, a quick thrill, or an enduring obsession?
