Devils Are Dreaming
- Synopsis
- Independent feature film. A black comedy about high art, pornography and a thirty-year-old loser caught in between. Joseph Avedon (Donovan) is an unfocused thirty-year-old living at home with his worried parents. While taking part in a bad experimental theatre version of Hamlet, he falls in love with the talented and beautiful Cessia (Evans). But Joseph soon finds himself thrown out of the production, rejected by the girl and being drawn in to a successful life as a pornographer. When confronted with failures in art and love, as well as the potential for success in a field he abhors, Joseph starts losing touch with reality and has hallucinations as he strives to make his life work.
