William Blake is a private detective. When he is asked by an
eccentric scientist to investigate the whereabouts of his amnesiac
missing wife, Louise, Will finds himself entangled in layers of
deceptions and disappearances that lead him inexorably back to an
unsolved mystery in his own past: the loss of his young daughter
Emily. The case takes Will to brothels, night clubs and amusement
arcades in the Scottish seaside resort of Portobello. Identities
become confused as his sexual obsession with a night club singer
becomes entwined with sightings of Louise, his own torturous
memories, and new visions of the lost Emily. The Existential
Detective is a surreal, dreamlike story of loss, incest and what it
means to remember.
