THE Q
This lyrical piece recounts a single evening of two strangers’ chance meeting to the sounds of London’s busy nightlife.
From sex and politics, to religion and the latest Snapchat filter, nothing is off-limits when talking to someone you’ll never see again. You’d be surprised just how much a stranger can teach you about yourself. Their two nights intertwine in this modern day love story turned on its head.
