No Names
Inspired by the iconic punk scene of the late '70s, No Names blurs the lines of affection and sexuality in a haunting tale of desire, hope, and loss.
Mike and Pete were no names, two working-class boys lost in the shuffle of their stratified town, brought together by their love of music. By 1978, their punk band was blazing across the underground scene. Now, in 1993, Mike is a hermit living alone on a dot of an island in the North Atlantic. When a mysterious letter from an unlikely fan named Isaac arrives, he is pulled right back into the pain he has spent over a decade running from.
Isaac longs for an escape from his lonely teenage life. A chance discovery of the No Names only album catapults him into an obsession with the godlike rockers and the tantalising possibility of connection.
As their stories collide, mistakes breed consequences that echo through the decades like the furious reverberations of a power chord.
