HELIOS
A story about the son of the god of the sun.
Internationally award winning modern re-telling of an ancient myth.
A lad lives half way up a historic hill.
A teenager is on a road trip to the city in a stolen car.
A boy is driving a chariot, pulling the sun across the sky.
HELIOS transplants the Ancient Greek tale into a modern-day myth wound round the winding roads of rural England and into the everyday living of a towering city.
A story about life, and about the invisible monuments we build to it.
