Hour 6
VORE
Writer
Rebecca Millar
Love, loneliness, connection, consumption; how do you learn to deaden the hunger?
In the ripening underbelly of London's dating scene, a group of singles dig their teeth into finding love. Our story follows Vee, an otherwise confident twenty something, trying to confess their feelings to their best friend, Eve. However, it seems that Eve has her eye on someone else, who, in turn, has his eye on another as well! With the voyeuristic threat of the lonely snapping at the heels of the characters, they've got to confront their deepest feelings and darkest hungers should they want to find true love.
