KORE

Created by Danielle De Vries & Tommy Boyce

When grief shatters Sam’s world, she freefalls into prescription drug dependence. Her friends Nick and Jenna try to pull her back to the surface—but instead, they become reluctant fellow travellers, each drowning in their own struggles.
With the "help" of her eccentric psychiatrist Dr. Whimsey, her Deliveroo drug dealer Darren, and her climate-activist mother Demi—too busy protesting the end of the world to notice Sam’s personal apocalypse—Sam’s descent becomes a tragicomedy of survival. No heroes, just humans failing together.

With Chloe Mason’s haunting original score underscoring every step of the descent, KORE reimagines the Persephone myth as a fearless, devastating spiral: an ode to all the ways we numb, fight, or fail to cope.
