The Lives of the Saints (NR)

synopsis

When Roadrunner, an errand-boy for local small time crook, Mr Karva, quite literally stumbles across a young abandoned child, he believes he has discovered an angel. Like an oracle, the silent child seems to be able to tell the future and fulfil people’s innermost dreams. Karva’s step-son Othello uses him to win bets, but soon everyone wants a piece of the action and father is pitted against son, and friend against friend, as greed and lust for power spiral out of control.
