Synopsis
Visitors Are Reminded That They Are About To Enter The Wunderkammer, A Floating Chamber Where Normal Spacetime Conventions No Longer Apply… A Bomb Blast In The London Underground Rips Through Space And Time, Unearthing Four Stories That Whirl, Collide And Pass Each Other By. Sometime Around Now, Georgia Madden (who Used To Be Georgie) Flees Her Dublin Home, Embarking On A Road Trip Spiked With The Hidden Dangers Of Her Past And Her Present. In The 1970s, As The Madden Family Begins To Disintegrate, A Disruptive Stranger Arrived Who Will Bind Them, Briefly. While The Underground Bomb Ticks Down, An Elderly German Woman, Anna Bauer, Recounts Her Own War Story To A Film Crew. And All Along, Fizzing And Popping In A Parallel Reality, We, The ‘visitors’, Are Led Through An Unsettling And Volatile Museum Of Curiosities. -- Mia Gallagher.
