The gifted film-maker, corduroy activist and amateur dentist Richard Ayoade first chanced upon a copy of The Two-Hander Trilogy by Harauld Hughes in a second-hand bookshop. At first startled by his uncanny resemblance to the writer's photo, he opened the volume and was electrified. Terse, aggressive and elliptical, what was true of Ayoade was also true of Hughe's writing, which encompassed stage, screen and some of the shortest poems ever published. Ayoade embarked on a documentary, The Unfinished Harauld Hughes, to understand the unfathomable collapse of Hughes's final film, O Bedlam! O Bedlam!, taking us deep inside the mind of the most furious British writer since the Boer War. This is the story of that quest.
