Damages

T992366611
Every paper wants a scoop. Every celebrity wants exposure. But when the scoop is a kid's TV presenter's bare breasts it's not just reputations that could end up damaged. And there's more to these breasts than meets the eye... A scandalous image of a high-profile TV personality has emerged in the newsroom of a notorious daily rag. With the deadline rapidly approaching a team of conflicted high-flyers battle against the clock and each other as they attempt to solve a menacing moral conundrum. All is not quite as it seems and the ensuing comical chaos exposes the cynical ethics and darker forces that shape our celebrity-centric press. Played in real time, Damages is a fiercely witty satire of the tabloid food chain and the ravenous appetites that sustain it. Is it in the public interest just because it interests the public?
