Franklyn weaves a tale of four lost souls set between the parallel worlds of contemporary London and a futuristic metropolis ruthlessly governed by faith and religious favour: Preest (Ryan Phillippe) a masked vigilante detective hunting his nemesis: Esser (Bernard Hill) a broken man searching for his wayward son: Milo (Sam Riley) a heartbroken thirty-something trying to find his way back to the purity of first love and Emilia (Eva Green) a beautiful art student whose suicidal art projects are increasingly deadly. As their worlds collide a single bullet will determine their destiny.
