Darkness Visible

2024

It is June 1940. The war against Hitler’s forces is raging. And the tide is turning against the British. In this hour of despair, Prime Minister Winston Churchill receives a mysterious letter from an even more mysterious woman, offering a Faustian bargain and a promise of victory. But if Churchill accepts, will he be condemning his nation’s very soul? Darkness Visible is based on the graphic novel of the same name, written by Mike Carey and Arvind Ethan David, and stars Christian McKay as Winston Churchill and Miranda Richardson as Lady Vivian. Earworms is a series of short, speculative fiction dramas–tales of what might have been...or might yet be...or perhaps in fact are, if only you were paying attention...if only you were listening.

Dr. Vikram Loses His Mind

2024

It is a simple question that is as profound as any we can ask: “Who am I?” Dr. Vikram Anthony is that rare person who believes the answer is relatively simple. I am my work; I am my skill; I am my mind. It is only when the noted surgeon faces his own mortality that the answer gets more complex. And the opportunity for a new life–a decidedly different life–opens a world of possibilities he’d never imagined. But perhaps he doesn’t know his own mind as well as he thinks he does.... Dr. Vikram Loses His Mind is written by Arvind Ethan David and stars Sanjeev Bhaskar as Dr. Vikram Anthony and Ming-Na Wen as Dr. Elaine Greenfield. Earworms is a series of short speculative-fiction dramas–tales of what might have been...or might yet be...or perhaps in fact are, if only you were paying attention...if only you were listening.

The Girl Who Wasn't There

2024

A window is but a piece of glass through which we view the world outside. It is not meant to distort. It is not intended to do anything but show us things as they are. At Oxford, though, there is a very particular window that reveals a very particular view. It is a view that defies all laws of nature and science. And when a detective is called in to investigate, he is startled to find that view opens a window into his own life–and a mystery he has never been able to solve. The Girl Who Wasn't There is written by Arvind Ethan David and stars Malachi Kirby as Ernest Underwood and Sarita Choudhury as Sara Adler-Denning.
