Hope Is Lost
Ten days before the millennium, a single mother fleeing her past finds refuge in London — only to discover the stranger offering help has darker motives than the Y2K panic surrounding her.
Ten days before the millennium, Hope, a single mother, arrives in London with her two infants, clutching only the clothes on their backs. Escaping a haunted past, she seeks refuge in a city gripped by Y2K paranoia. A charismatic stranger offers sanctuary, but as Hope navigates an uncertain future in unfamiliar streets, she uncovers his chilling motives. The threat to her family dwarfs the feared technological collapse. In a pulse-pounding race against time, Hope must protect her children at any cost, no matter the personal sacrifice.

Arriving in the UK from Nigeria - on “Colonial Airlines” (with a very familiar logo!), a mother and her two children apply for asylum at the immigration desk. They are admitted and an appointment is made with the already significantly over-subscribed Home Office to discuss their circumstances, but with only ten days left of the 20th century and her sister unable to put them up, “Hope” needs to find somewhere to house her family out of the biting winter weather. Luckily, she espies a card on the wall of the phone box for “Ola” whom she calls and who offers to help them out with some very basic accommodation. That proves vitally useful, but next day we begin to appreciate that he might not be quite the generous Christmas spirit that he claimed to be…! I like this style of claymation and pape
