In Fog, the promising, high-spirited young Nick Mangos of Fitzroy Raw is a loner in his late-fifties with signs of failing memory. Wanting to dispel a sense of growing unease, he sets out on a foggy night and finds himself, candle in hand, wandering through Fitzroy in search of his boyhood home. He encounters an assortment of vivid characters, all of whom are in some way touched by the flame and who further his journey. Through adventure and misadventure his candle is responsible for a fire, a Molotov cocktail, a suspected bomb, which result in a police hunt. Mixing pathos and humour, blurring past and present, fusing real and surreal, Fog is a modern-day parable, a long night's journey toward light, a lost soul's quest for meaning and homecoming.
