Plots(1)
Hugo Dill lives in two worlds. One is the hard – and cold – world in which he is a rink sweeper at an ice show. The other is the highly colourful world of the pulp detective magazine, which he reads to the point of mania. The would-be private detective uncovers a plot to assassinate Britain's top scientists and, with the aid of a blonde, prevents the transmission of secret plans. (StudioCanal UK)
