'The last thing I want is all these total strangers, who live literally inches away from me, knowing every last detail of my life.'
When a young woman buys her first flat it seems that all her dreams are coming true. Then she meets him. Overbearing, brash, and prone to spectacular gaffs, her across-the-hall neighbour is definitely strange - yet strangely attractive.
But when an innocent prank goes horribly wrong the newly-formed friendship is pushed to breaking point. Only then do the neighbours realise they don't know as much about each other as they thought they did.
Starring Craig Gazey (Coronation Street; RSC) and Emily Head (The Inbetweeners), and directed by Russell Labey (New Boy), this new thriller is a hilarious and unsettling look at urban living today. So put an eye to your keyhole and feel the guilty rush of spying on the strangers whose secrets are only a wall away. After all, it's good to know your neighbours…right?
