Running Man is a dark yet comedic short film set in the South East of England in 1991 – the heyday of illegal raves.
In an attempt to escape the ghosts of his past, guilt-ridden Fred Love convinces his mates to do a clinical drugs trial for cash. But the trial drug reacts disastrously with the chemicals already flowing through Fred’s veins from the previous evening’s rave, and events take a violent turn as he is forced to come face to face with everything he’s been running from.
