Guilt, alcoholic apathy and the inevitable, looming apocalypse threaten to push a young man to the brink.
"To the Brink" is a flagship portfolio piece for the start-up animation studio "Spare Flesh", co-founded by Hugo Docking and Henry Blackaller.
A violent stop motion cabaret for the cynical and depraved, To the Brink was directed by Hugo Docking and made possible by a gaggle of collaborators - all as talented as they are twisted.
Spare Flesh specialises in making grotesque and anarchic animations using a blend of dark comedy, body horror and musical theatre. They are currently open for commission.
