The Faces That
Don't Belong
God has given you one face, and you make yourself another.
– William Shakespeare
In the shadows of the city, a man’s twisted visage haunts the night. Zeke Horcoff’s disfigured face is a constant reminder of the cruelty life can bestow. But when a chance encounter with a kindhearted prostitute, Louise, reveals a path to a new life, desperation drives them to unhinge the boundaries of morality.
From the gritty underbelly emerges a chilling conspiracy – to find the perfect face, they must first take a life. With the aid of a surgeon seeking fame at any cost, they embark on a perilous quest that will push them to the brink of sanity. As the line between right and wrong blurs, they must confront the harsh truth: in the pursuit of beauty, some sacrifices are too horrific to comprehend.
Descend into the darkest depths of human obsession, where the price of perfection is paid in blood. This haunting tale will leave you questioning the lengths we’re willing to go to remake ourselves, and the consequences that await those who dare to play God.

Caduceus (kuh-DOO-see-us)- A figure of a staff with two snakes wound around it and two wings at the top.

This draws them to each other.
However, in different ways, they also clash. There are growing cracks in their friendship that they are blind to because of their idealism. The clash is not just between two friends, but also through other people that has and will infringe themselves into the rhythms of two young men in their lives in Victoria.
When changes start to happen, their friendship is brought to the test. When two different women enter and leave their lives, their friendship demonstrates its resilience. The question is – how far can their friendship bend?
The two friends reach out for the wings at the top of the staff…
