Three films made from found footage, video diaries, performance and to-camera discourse. Music and narrative voiceover connect the chapters searching for subjectivity through various existential backdrops; from responses to love with addiction, pain and release, to a detective story set in Jaffa and Tel Aviv, and finally a dance across Europe in search of a happy ending.

The stories of the desperate souls who pass through the doors of 508, a room on the fifth floor of an anonymous, decaying hotel.
A surreal and blackly comic journey down the hotel's lonely corridors and behind its out-dated furnishings and stained surfaces. The story plunging into the ever-turning carousel of haunted lives who check in and out of the establishment. Adulterers, lonely businessmen, and hustlers grapple with their demons whilst a prying, occasionally sinister hotel staff always seems to be within earshot. Inside this hotel the mundane transforms into an implement of threat; a faulty light fixture appears to contain a hidden camera; a heating unit whispers to guests with increasing menace; a television set randomly flips channels, displaying TV shows which reveal a guest's secret paranoid fantasies; and a stray look into the bathroom mirror becomes the quickest way to disprove your existence.
One of a series of videos in which everything happens at the edges of the frame. In this piece waves build up (in stereo) and then unfurl.

Interweaving the directors’ lived experiences of present-day Nicosia with their memories as children whose fathers served with the RAF in Cyprus, FATHER-LAND explores notions of home, loss and displacement in the politically charged space of the UN Buffer Zone, the demilitarised strip that has partitioned the island since 1974.
Between the 1960s and 70s three sisters each ate from her own coloured enamel plate at a specific place at the table.
PLATES juxtaposes audiovisual recording of material objects with narrative interpretations of their past context. Each plate manifests an individual sound, colour, and damage. Evoking interpretations of childhood identity.
The film gives insight in to Alyssa's anxiety phase of grieving as hallucinations build to a peak, blurring her understanding of time and mortality before reaching an emotional rebirth.
Global in scope but intimate in spirit, a dizzying assembly of footage shot between the bucolic English countryside and buzzing metropoles New York and Hong Kong.

Following artist Bill Drummond over two years of his 12-year World Tour: At work in Kolkata, India, and in Lexington, North Carolina, doing his self-imposed 'work' – building beds, baking cakes, making soup, shining shoes – to the variously amused, perplexed or annoyed reactions of those around him.
