THAT DOOR
COMING SOON
This film tells the story of Cordel ‘Delboy’ Green, born and bred in the ends, but his stomping grounds these days are members clubs, overpriced coffee shops and those burger spots that’ll sell you a £15 pound smashed burger without chips.
One obscure evening on an errand for his mum, he drops a coin that rolls through the shop before being swallowed by the darkness of a mysterious door at the back of the corner-shop.
As Delboy chases after this change through the door, he finds himself trapped in a twisted, decaying version of the corner shop, where he’s confronted by its neglected soul.
