A noir mystery where the real case is staying alive.
Sid Penrose is a story about depression and suicide. But more than that, it’s about choosing to face another day when you’re at your lowest. It’s disguised as a mystery / noir film. Many involved with this film have first hand experience with depression and suicide. That is why we are so passionate about bringing this story to life.
