The film will start shooting in January. Jonathan Smith adapted from his own novel and Christopher Menual (Prime Suspect) will direct. The story is about the bohemian artists group Lamorna at the start of the 20th century, including a love triangle that plays out on the Cornish coast.
The story is said to follow a pair of loner college undergrads, Jack and Montgomery, who order a take-out pie, but accidentally take a homemade drug that turns a two-floor journey downstairs into a “mind-bendingly transformative quest.”
On the verge of losing everything, veteran sprinter Gu Young is getting one last opportunity at redemption, including a chance to re-kindle the love of his life.
