About this Event

After catastrophic climate disasters devastate mainland Europe, millions are forced to flee west in search of safety. Miraculously, England remains untouched, but as refugees begin arriving on British shores, the government calls a historic referendum.

The question is simple:

YES - Let refugees in.
NO - Shut the borders with ruthless force.

Seeking refuge from the tension in London, siblings Henry and Margaret retreat to their quiet family cottage on the Cornish coast. But when Margaret discovers a young refugee girl hiding along the cliffs, their fragile sense of safety begins to unravel.

The Vote is a tense and haunting story about fear, family, and the human cost of political decisions.
