When Syd (Chris Evans) learns that his ex-girlfriend London (Jessica Biel) is leaving New York without telling him, he responds by impulsively crashing her going away party. Once there fear catches up to him, rather than confront her, he holes up in the bathroom with a pile of cocaine and Bateman (Jason Statham), an enigmatic Englishman he just met. As the two engage in a drug-fueled conversation that runs the gamut from entropy to S&M to the meaning of life, Syd struggles to work up the nerve to talk to London before it's too late.
Writer-director Hunter Richards' directorial debut, LONDON, is an alternately hilarious and harrowing meditation on life, religion, sex and love, told from the perspective of a young man cast adrift after losing the one thing he cares about. LONDON challenges us to reexamine our most deeply held beliefs. It also offers a window into a generation of affluent young adults born to the excesses of the 1980s and now searching for meaning in their materially full but spiritually bereft lifestyles.
