One Dead Man



The concepts of "good" and "bad" are subjective value judgments. There is however, a belief in self-empowered action otherwise known as conviction of belief. A man of conviction lives in his own world while he answers his calling. His attitude is justifiable on practical grounds. He does what he believes is right and will do it even though the world doesn’t agree with or accept him. He does it because he must.

On one level, ONE DEAD MAN explores this theme but on another level it is philosophically and psychologically so much more. It is a story about loneliness, escape, disappointment and alienation; about people that nobody cares for, that nobody knows; loners, doomed tragic figures, lost on their inner journey. This story certainly doesn’t present its characters as heroes, but ultimately as human beings. It is a story not only about belief, but ultimately it’s consequences.
