The Phoney
Stop Pretending
Rupert, the son of world-renowned artist Luther Milo, longs to create art of his own but is shackled by the need to care for his ailing father. Long-time friend and gallerist, Gab, suggests that the world has woken up to the fact it’s just two blobs on a canvas, and has simply become worthless. This prompts Rupert to consider all of his options – some less tasteful than others.
