Two super-fans chase Jarvis Cocker's yellow trousers in an absurd comedy about fandom, grief, and letting go.
"We just sit and sometimes dance and prance around the room and ask, 'What would he do? What would Jarvis do?' Somehow, that makes us feel a little better."
Didi and GG are best friends and super-fans of Pulp frontman Jarvis Cocker.
When a pair of yellow trousers, supposedly worn by the man himself, come up for auction through their wildly unconventional therapist, they empty their pockets to buy them.
Only there's one problem. They might not be Jarvis's trousers at all.
Their search for the real yellow trousers spirals into an increasingly surreal odyssey populated by eccentric strangers, impossible coincidences, and the unsettling feeling that they've been here before.
What Would Jarvis Do? is an experimental absurdist black comedy about fandom, grief, and the stories we attach to treasured objects. It's a playful exploration of what happens when the people and things we hold onto disappear - and how we might find a way forward.
