A new gonzo true crime docu-play by Johnnie Walker about homophobia, violence, incarceration, sex, and mystery inspired by the true story of Luke O'Donovan.
In 2013, Luke was arrested after a fight at a New Year's Eve party left several men with knife-wounds-himself included. The local media portrayed Luke as a maniac who went on a stabbing spree. Luke says he was the victim of a queer-bashing, punished for the crime of fighting back. In 2014, Johnnie began writing letters to Luke in prison and looking for the truth.
