Epic
Synopsis:
epic is a vivid collision of ancient legend and modern obsession. a small time criminal transports a cargo of smuggled sheep from Cumbria across the Irish border, triggeirng a sequence of actual and spiritual events that resonate and spread, virus-like, across the whole island. Urban vigilanteism, sexual betrayal, meditations on eco-culture - all feature in Gorman's poetic, visually exciting and sometimes hilariously comic canvas of a society on the edge. From exiled small-town teenagers to corrupt public servants to a quiet farming community devastated by a total cull of livestock, this is a theatrical kaleidoscope of a Northern european nation in a time of change and anxiety.
