Nonsense
Flatmates fight over the opportunity to experience some very new sensations.
Overview
In a post-sensory world, Gene arrives home with an experimental kit that allows people to experience sight, sound, smell, touch and taste. He starts sampling the goodies with his flatmate Richard but the further they go, the greedier they get… Featuring winning performances from Deaf actors Alex Nowak and Stephen Collins, Max Clendaniel’s mad-cap sci-fi fantasy channels the honourable tradition of odd-couple sitcoms.
Signed dialogue in this film is subtitled by default but additional, optional closed captions can also be accessed from the playback bar.
