With a makeshift workshop in his back garden, David looks like any other middle aged dad with a sad hobby. But as this short documentary from the Northern Film School reveals, David has darker, more profound reasons to spend so much time in the shed. Following a terrible accident and several weeks in a coma, David fights his fears day-in, day-out: polishing, fixing and rebuilding, finding his way through the darkness. A documentary film from Yorkshire about life, death, and bicycles; a film about what pushes us beyond.

An astronaut exposed to cosmic rays outside of Saturn's rings returns to Earth and begins to melt away. Escaping from the hospital, he wanders around the backwoods looking for human flesh to eat.
