A desperate woman. A Faustian deal. A myth, shattered. Liana and Ben, a twisted, sexy retelling of a classic tale.
With: Kimberly Alexander, Darrell Larson, Mara Marini, Jonathan Medina and Tim Wright
LIANA AND BEN is a twisted, sexy, modern take on Faust. Our story begins with a not-so-chance encounter between a beautiful young woman and a dark, enigmatic stranger. Ben makes Liana an offer: he will keep her young and beautiful for 250 years if she can prove to him that humanity is worth saving. Now, Liana’s time is almost up and Ben demands his proof. They travel forward and backward through history in search of hope – questioning their very existence, the nature of their own mythology and the foundations of good & evil.
