Poppets
17
min
Content warning:
Poppets is a surreal soap opera set in Basildon and the Estuary, following an Essex girl investigating malpractice in a new housing development, two women who meet and fall in love on a night out at Bas Vegas, and their ex boyfriends (who also hook up). They're psychically linked to the story of two Plotlands women - as overshared to them by an old man in the smoking area - who visit a local cunning person to make a poppet. Witchcraft and provincial planning applications collide and their environments collapse into something stranger than even your standard Essex night out.
