A beautiful Black and White montage of poetry and music depicting central London at it's bleakest. Lensed by Star Wars D.P David Tattersall, this early work is a clear indication of world class talent at work. Beautifully Scored by Paul Inder (son of Lemmy from Motorhead)The poem is written by the near legendary underground poet Randala (although she chose to remain uncredited at the time) And directed and narrated by indie cult icon Jon Jacobs. the film also features Marilyn Monroesque Fhiona-Louise as the Whore/Poet, Fhiona-Louise later directed at the tender age of 21 an underground British flick called "Cold Light of Day" which told the true story of Serial Killer Dennis Nielson.

This film played at film festivals worldwide and was an official selection at the Semaine de la Critique at Cannes in 1988.
