In a world ever more focussed upon global warming, climate change and the increased scarcity of resources, UGLY is a dark comedy by Emma Adams, set in a future where food and water are dangerously scarce, climate change has reached the point of no return and a malevolent new world order has begun to exist.
UGLY tells the story of Ben and Woody, two ‘special’ people who find themselves trapped in the Ghetto-Zone, a segregated place for those labelled ‘Not Special.’
Ambushed by Mrs. Mason, a disgraced home economics teacher who now works as a ‘food memories prostitute,’ and who has an illegal immigrant hidden in her cupboard, they must all learn to reconcile the past with the present if they have any hope at all of escape. Red Ladder's trailer for UGLY is here.
