BFI titles • Fantasy, Horror, Short Films, UR

Paul and Nick are an odd duo who have developed a method that allows them to predict the sudden death of unsuspecting innocents in London. When their unbroken record of accurate predictions is threatened by an American tourist who discovers their theory, the morose forecasters start to unravel. A strikingly imaginative 1990s British fable shot in stunning black and white.
