Description
Twist is a gritty re-telling of Charles Dickens's classic Oliver Twist updated to current times, moved out of the poor house and onto the street. Told from the point of The Artful Dodger, Twist is no longer a tale of the misfortunes of boys, but rather about the prosaically beautiful Oliver who falls into the hands of down-and-out young men. Dodge takes the young man under his wing and instructs him in the unforgiving arts of drug abuse and prostitution. As Oliver's innocence dissolves, both young men confront inner and outer demons, and strangely it is Dodge who finds he cannot escape his past.
