Four Words

My latest project is a contemporary drama, and a testament to the power of love.

Four Words features a young man who possesses a unique gift: he has the ability to crystallize individual life problems into just four words. Vano has lived with a mixed band of gypsies since his home life was destroyed in mysterious circumstances when he was just a boy. Though supported emotionally by some of the kinder gypsies, he has grown up haunted by his past and very much a loner. When he develops his gift into a highly effective therapeutic tool that is much sought-after in Europe, Vano is mercilessly exploited by Romano, the camp boss.

Although irritated when an ambitious young journalist begins snooping around, Vano initially dismisses her interest as the occasional type he receives when someone decides to repudiate his therapy. He is also distracted, and becomes increasingly charmed, when he receives unexpected validation for his work from an attractive mainstream therapist who turns up to study his methods. As the journalist digs deeper, however, she causes Vano to lose his moorings completely when he finally learns the shocking truth that lies behind his gift.

Further updates will follow in due course.
