Phantasmagoria

Four people come together for a political debate in a remote house, deep in a forest. Mehrosh is a celebrated activist, made anxious by recent death threats. Her opponent, Bina, is a wily politician from the ruling party, determined to look good and win. Jai is a journalist who wants to launch his new channel with a bang. Scherezade is Bina’s PA, and not quite who she seems. Is anyone?Set in an imaginary country in the near future, "Phantasmagoria" pits the terror of speaking out, against the fear of staying quiet, in order to warn us of the very real dangers of populism, social media and the use of fear to control us.
