Nonsense Revolution is a 2008 Canadian Comedy drama written and directed by Ann Verrall,[3] starring Alex House, Anastasia Phillips, Robert Clark and Deborah Allen.[4]
Synopsis[edit]
Nonsense Revolution is about a group of friends who were partying one night. In a terrible accident, Kaz (Alex House), one of the group dies in a "hit and run" accident.
About a year later, Kaz returns with angel wings (but is not saintly at all). He "haunts" one of the friends called Tess (Anastasia Phillips) and appears only to her but remains invisible to all the others. He tells Tess to arrange the gathering of the group together on the anniversary of his death. An awkward atmosphere develops as Kaz "plays" around with the group sexually arousing them by touching them with his feathers and making them engage in various heterosexual and homosexual acts with each other.
