Antic Hay

Step into the roaring, post-WWI London of Theodore Gumbril Junior, a disillusioned schoolteacher who trades chalk dust for the quixotic pursuit of pneumatic trousers. As Gumbril navigates the absurdities of inventing and marketing inflatable pants, he simultaneously stumbles through a series of romantic misadventures. His quest for connection is mirrored by his bohemian circle of friends and acquaintances, all grappling with a profound sense of existential ennui and searching for meaning in a world that feels increasingly fragmented and aimless.
