Morris Men tells a complex emotional story of two past lovers thrown back together when broken ex soldier, Tommy Martin (Jamie Chambers), returns to the small seaside town they grew up in.

 

With an untold past involving a painful breakup and Tommy running from his emotional issues, clearly unresolved feelings soon bubble to the surface. Forced together by a twist of fete Tommy and Sally (Eloise Lovell-Anderson) revisit powerful and raw emotions as they fight to keep their feelings under control amidst a strange new world that pulls them together like never before. 

 

Amidst a raging battle of revenge and retribution, feelings soften as Sally realises she can maybe now trust Tommy to stand by her side as he desperately attempts to proves he is back to stay. 

 

Akin to Romeo and Juliet, and the best unrequited love stories, emotions are laid bare as we feel the grip of their past anguish and wishes for reconciliation, yet constantly fighting against the explosive power of a broken union and the scalding embers that remain.  

 

“You’ve not seen anything like it. It’s essentially an urban vengeance thriller with huge fight set pieces and dark themes of retribution; all tied up in a traditional Shakespearean unrequited love story.” Writer and Producer,

DB Morgan.
