A doctor in Nordic- and Medieval Studies from Cambridge University, is on the run in Copenhagen. His boyfriend has broken up with him and he’s just been fired from his dream job. His former employers at the University of Copenhagen have hired a Serbian contract killer to assassinate him. Someone has stolen the keys to his apartment in the city and tapped his phone and computer. His wallet and mobile phone have once again mysteriously vanished. There is only one solution. He’ll need to cool his feet by dipping them into the toilet bowl and take his name off the doorbell.
Storm Alerts is a docudrama about a man in his prime who all of a sudden finds himself standing at a peculiar crossroads in his life. A doorway to another dimension is flung open and he’s faced with a choice. To ignore the call or answer it. But to answer it comes at a high cost. Sanity, as we have come to recognize it, is up for grabs. He is hospitalized and diagnosed with a mental illness, but instead of taking his medicine as prescribed by his doctors, he tries to embrace and live with his episodical madness.
