THE DARKEST UNIVERSE is BAFTA-nominated directors Will Sharpe and Tom Kingsleys surreal and hilarious follow-up to the critically acclaimed BLACK POND. Described by Sharpe and Kingsley as a romantic comedy set in space, or - to be more specific - planet Earth, the film follows world-weary banker Zac on his search for his eccentric sister, Alice, who goes missing while on a narrowboat trip with her new boyfriend. Poignant, funny and thought-provoking in equal measure, The Darkest Universe is an otherworldly and truly original gem of a movie from two of the UKs freshest young directors. the films ensemble cast includes Joe Thomas and Simon Bird (THE INBETWEENERS) and an array of Britains brightest comic talents.
