When a mysterious cult horror movie from the 1970s pops up on YouTube, Ben simply has to see it. He has to see it, partly because it’s a horror film, but mostly because it stars Margot Kidder. Ben asks his girlfriend Lena to watch it with him. She does. Driveshaft, however, is no ordinary film, and before they know it, Ben and Lena are trapped within its murky and disturbing world.

Tender, nostalgic, romantic, funny, absurd, magically real, speculative, ironic, nightmarish, entertaining and elegantly rendered…these stories span a century of Man’s consciousness. Once, a man might be a Gatsby chasing his girl half-way around the world, the captain of a football World Cup winning side, a raging Picasso bull in a mythical maze refusing to yield lover or art till his last mortality-defiant egotistic gasp. He zigzags over #TimesUp, political correctness, game theory, oh...and...the women in his life.

Nineteen tales of human connection and disconnection that collide and subvert the half-crazed romantic contemporary, the not-so-distant rosy past, our dodgy-looking promised cyberpunk utopia, and our post-apocalyptic dystopian future. Provocative, wistful, melancholic, nightmarish, darkly funny, and satirical, these episodes must surely play out logically. Or not.
