Kitchen salesman learns body-hopping. What could go wrong? (Spoiler: his body gets stolen.)
A supernatural drama telling the story of Darren Jackson, a kitchen salesman bored with his mundane life. So when the opportunity arises for him to change his destiny, Darren grabs it with both hands. His mentor of sorts, Fetch, teaches Darren how to 'wraith'; to send his spirit into other's bodies and control them for a short time. However, when Darren's body is left without a spirit, it is taken over by someone else, and it is Darren's challenge to reclaim his body, and his life.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
78-minute runtime suggests this was likely shot in about two weeks with available locations—explaining why Darren's 'mundane life' looks genuinely mundane.
The 'wraith' concept borrows heavily from Jumper and The Hidden, but the British kitchen-salesman protagonist feels uniquely post-2008 recession—trapped by class, desperate for escape.
