Midsummer Boulevard
When the strikingly confident Sapphire Jones emerges from the Milton Keynes railway station, pauses for an e-cigarette and meets the loitering Leon Magritte, it sets off a chain of events that strips away the layers of the planned city to reveal something dark and primal lurking beneath. Set against the unique features of Milton Keynes-its grid road, concrete cows and astrologically aligned main thoroughfare-Midsummer Boulevard is equal parts film noir, black comedy and cult murder mystery-with the unwitting Leon Magritte as the intended victim.
