Franklyn – A Unique and Intriguing Tale

In a comic book-like world, Jonathan Preest is the masked vigilante of Meanwhile City, where everyone is legally enforced to adopt a religion. Preest, the only atheist in town, learns that his nemesis, The Individual, has kidnapped a girl. While looking for her, he is captured by the local authorities. Promising to eventually release him, they bring Preest to an operating room to implant a homing device on him. Before they can do that, Preest fights his way out of the building.

An Unlikely Alliance

In a reality like our own, Emilia is a troubled art student living in London. During one of her arts projects, she records herself calling an ambulance and taking a deadly amount of pills. The ambulance arrives in time to save her, and she wakes up in a hospital.

A Father’s Search

In that same building, Peter, a religious man, looks for his son David, who has become mentally unstable after returning from the war. He has been reported to be at that hospital before fleeing.

After learning that the kidnapped girl has been killed by the Individual, Preest visits Wormsnake, his usual informant, and attacks him. Pretending he wants to arrange a meeting to talk things out, Preest gives Wormsnake a note with an address and tells him to give it to the Individual. He then hides in the building in front of the one referenced in the note and, holding a sniper rifle, awaits the Individual.

A Twisted Reality

Another one of Emilia’s projects is secretly following and recording strangers, occasionally disguising herself with a red wig. One of the strangers is named Milo, and his fiancée left him days before the wedding. Heartbroken, Milo starts believing an old childhood friend, a redhead named Sally, is everywhere he goes. He eventually talks to Sally, who looks a lot like Emilia, and arranges a date at a restaurant. Milo later learns from his mother that Sally is imaginary; a character he constructed as a child while dealing with the death of his father. He nonetheless goes to the restaurant the night of the date.

At a shelter for the homeless, Peter meets Bill, an old acquaintance of David from his time in Basra. David recently attacked Bill and gave him a note with an address. Bill, who looks a lot like Wormsnake, fears David will kill him.

After a conversation with the hospital’s janitor and another botched suicide attempt, Emilia decides to confront her mother. It turns out that, as a child, Emilia was abused by her father and told her mother about it. For her entire life, Emilia has thought that her mother did not believe her. Her mother reveals that she did believe Emilia, and that is why they left her father. The two women reconcile.

Peter goes to the address in Bill’s note, which turns out to be the building where Emilia lives. Baffled, he decides to go to the restaurant in front of the building, the same where Milo is “dating” Sally.

David, who looks a lot like Preest, breaks into Emilia’s apartment, hits her and uses her window to aim a rifle at his father in the restaurant below. The Meanwhile City reality is actually a fantasy constructed by David after the trauma of both the war and losing his sister at a young age. When she died, Peter told David that her death was part of God’s plan, in an attempt to reasure him. Peter’s attitude had the opposite effect on David, who has resented his father ever since. Believing himself to be a hero, he shoots at the exact moment that Milo stands up to “kiss” Sally. The bullet ends up hitting Milo and makes everyone around him panic. Meanwhile, in yet another suicide attempt, Emilia turns on the gas heater. Realizing what he has actually done, David commits suicide by igniting the gas, causing an explosion that destroys the apartment. Emilia, who was running out of the apartment, survives. Leaving the building, she is spotted by Milo. As the paramedics arrive on the scene, Milo and Emilia meet.
