“Dark, dark my light, and darker my desire.”
— Theodore Roethke
A disturbing sci-fi thriller about technology and human desire. In the near future, the internet has become The Nether, a completely immersive virtual reality. But in its secret recesses, where nothing is true and everything is permitted, beauty and horror walk hand in hand. Winner of the 2012 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize.
Featuring: Michael Brocki, Michael Foley, Marleigh Purgar McDonald, Lazarus Simmons, Caitlin Wells
