'Over The Top' is a love letter to the world of fanfiction and fan culture. Jessica Durand takes you on a hilarious deep dive into one particular magnum opus: the 500,000-word Downton Abbey World War 1 fanfiction that changed her life.
Part TED Talk, part fever dream, and part self-insert fanfiction, Jessica takes you on a journey through her very own, self-written Downton Abbey fanfiction set in the trenches of World War One.... (no prior knowledge of Downton Abbey is required).
Written & Performed by Jessica Durand
Directed by Rowan Ellis
