A Different Time
Sebastian F is an 80s Pop Star living on his memories. Estranged from his former wife and son, he has abandoned London for a life as a semi-recluse on the edge of Dartmoor.
Callie Wagstaff is a 20 year-old student dealing with the unexpected death of her mother from the Covid virus. Clearing out her mother’s apartment, Callie discovers something about her mother’s past that turns her life upside down.
In Callie’s attempt to get to the truth, these two characters are brought together in the most dramatic and unexpected way.
‘A Different Time’ is a powerful examination of what happens once morality has shifted. Should people be judged for acts committed when society’s principles were less nuanced and refined? How far back should we go to punish people for behaving in a manner considered normal at the time?
‘A Different Time’ confronts these issues face-on, examining the emotions and responses of all those involved.
