Comes A Bright Day is an offbeat, blackly comic, coming-of age love-story set during the armed robbery of one of London’s most exclusive jewellers. Two hostages flung together by circumstance discover their true feelings for one another. Sometimes funny, often dark, always captivating and never what you expect.
Matthew Ryan is returning home to his London council estate after months spent in a psychiatric unit following the disappearance of his little brother, Tom. Matthew’s father had left him to look after Tom and he’s still racked by feelings of guilt. He studies a recorded news reconstruction of the abduction and hears his brother’s voice calling out to him for help. Not knowing what is real or imagined, he fears he is losing his mind. Ignored by his alcoholic father, Matthew visits a clairvoyant who reveals an ancient curse and a disturbing history of missing children in the area.
