Beyond Heaven and Hell

2014, 70 minutes

Does the Devil have a choice in being Evil?

Eddie and Tanya have lived together for the last three years in a less than fulfilling relationship. Tanya dreams of one day becoming 'famous' and ends up cheating on Eddie with a small time film maker who boasts of “being connected inside the industry”. Quiet, unassuming Eddie works at a charity bookstore and hasn't had much sleep recently, some of his old nightmares are coming back. When he finds out about this final betrayal, he decides to take his fate in his own hands and kill Tanya. He soon finds that taking a life really isn't so easy as he thought, until the devil appears to him as his First Apparition (A1 in the script) and helps him make up his mind. But what if the devil you see isn't the devil at all? When the 2nd Apparition (A2 in the script) shows up dressed as the devil, all hell breaks and both Eddie and Tanya start wondering if they've gone insane. Once Eddie and Tanya realise that the first Apparition (A1) is actually GOD pretending to be the devil, the film starts dealing with the meaning of Evil and the central questions: “Why would God do such a thing?” “Does the Devil have a choice in being evil?” “Where is Eddie's conscience?” All these questions are revealed by the end, and one (un)lucky character will die; the only question is: WHO?
