She Sings of Murder and Love is an anti-true-crime documentary, told as a musical through a feminist lens, a story like no other.
An anti-true-crime documentary, told as a musical, an unapologetically feminist, cinematic portrayal of Irish singer-song writer, Keeley Moss. Every song Keeley writes and performs celebrates the life of, and demands justice for, Inga Maria Hauser, a young German backpacker, sexually assaulted and murdered in Northern Ireland in 1988. As the facts of Inga Maria's case migrate from Keeley's meticulous campaigning blog into her songs, the Director ‘investigates the investigator’. Capturing Keeley's fever dream of Inga Maria’s intense week of adolescent freedom, before she became a 'murder victim', we discover the unexpected, profound gifts that Inga Maria has rewarded Keeley's dedication with.

Founded in 2004 by Damon Albarn and Ian Birrell, the UK music collective Africa Express has spent two decades bringing artists together across borders. In February 2024 it arrived in the Americas for the first time. Over eight days in Las Estacas, Mexico, more than 60 musicians from Africa, Latin America, Europe and the United States came together to rehearse, perform and create an album from scratch.
Following Africa Express from Mexico through Europe and back, the film becomes a poetic journey through music, memory and imagination, celebrating the power of collaboration and community as reality slowly blurs with fantasy.
With no single protagonist, the collective itself is the main character and music is its language. Africa Express is a portrait of a fleeting community and of what strangers from different worlds can build when they truly listen to each other.

‘You want to look at how it is and marvel at the ordinariness of it and the extraordinariness of it all’ (Lubaina Himid)
Kettle’s Yard is a small, humble home. Created by a couple, Jim & Helen Ede, who, with little money, became supporters and friends of many of the most important artists of the 20th Century. Jim survived the trenches of the First World War but despaired of a society that could allow such horrors. His is a quiet, very British, revolution that has a powerful resonance today.
‘These fragments that you find all around Kettle’s Yard, they’re almost an equivalent to the fragments of a bomb blast that he’s trying to capture and hold, he’s trying to stop this explosive force of horror and warfare and people fighting’ (Andrew Nairne)
Antony Gormley, Edmund de Waal, Cornelia Parker, Ai Weiwei and others, passionately explain why this humble place is so important to them and why Jim’s radical ideas are vital for us today.
