STROKE OF GENIUS, starring Maxim Baldry (RINGS OF POWER, YEARS AND YEARS) and narrated by Tim Key (MICKEY 17, THE DOUBLE), juxtaposes the calm and emptiness of a morning spent waiting for a letter, where ostensibly little to nothing happens, with the turmoil on a cosmic scale caused by the waiting man’s existential ambivalence about his legacy and purpose.
