Plot Synopsis Produced for BBC television, Danny Boyle’s DV
"Dogme" film Strumpet is an extraordinary tale of comic, chaotic
characters living in an anarchic English urban landscape. Strayman (Christopher
Eccleston) is a spontaneous street poet who is landlord to a pack of
stray dogs. Unable to resist another of life's strays, he hooks up with
Strumpet (Jenna G), a shy homeless girl with an exceptional gift for
music. Knockoff (Stephen Walters), Strayman's neighbour and an aspiring
manager, overhears them singing Strayman's sporadic poetry to the soaring
strains of Strumpet's guitar. Knockoff pronounces the birth of a new
musical sensation, and the three of them set off for London in search
of fame, fortune and Top of the Pops. |
