A poor memory leads Gregor Petrikovi to make audio recordings of conversations with loved ones, friends, and acquaintances, and since 2016, he has been building an archive of anecdotes and recollections. With AI-generated visuals, SINCERELY, VICTOR PIKE combines these faceless voices in a patchwork to produce a collective memory around the semi-fictional figure Victor Pike.

The pace of technological progress in the physical world has stalled. WE MADE TELEPHONES converts mid-20th century propaganda and advertising into a personal, intergenerational exploration of how the ‘world of atoms’ fell apart—and how it might yet recover.
Bodies of water are intervened upon, moved, disrupted and exploited. Labouring bodies experience similar pressures from the same forces of power and extraction. Distant communities – Northern England and Jamaica – share similar histories of manipulation and oppression whose record is kept in the living memory of its waterways. But water, like people, can find a way to exert its own will.

A work of speculative cinematic writing, the film is about war and displacement, architecture and place-making. It tells the fragmented biography of the so-called Rock Church, an iconic building in Helsinki and its architects who were excluded from the canon of Finnish modernism. The architects' personal history of displacement due to the Finnish Winter War of 1939 and Soviet occupation is braided with the war on present-day Gaza.
Past and present histories, temporalities and geographies fold into, and over one another collapsing time, place and identities narratively to consider, in the gentlest of tones, the impact of atrocities on contemporary lifeworlds.

What if every thought was a movement, and every movement a thought? What is intelligence and when is it artificial? Can robots dance? Can they help our children learn how to be? How are we learning, and do we ever stop? What are the values and skills that we pass on as societies through games, crafts, stories and cinema?
Connecting scenes of pedagogy, work and play in four global sites, THE HEXAGONAL HIVE AND A MOUSE IN A MAZE invites viewers to consider the mechanics of learning. We search in the cabinets of a supercomputer, in the curve of a chalked letter, in the weaving of a basket. We jump down the rabbit hole and seek counsel from researchers and public intellectuals.
Curiosity and the affordances of the essay form send us grazing, observing, and thinking through film with an open heart. We wonder afresh what the human spirit might yet dream up as new and improved programming for our species.

Using a collated archive of healthcare experiences recorded with Birmingham's trans+ community the film explores the critical state of trans healthcare in the UK through ‘medical drag’ re-enactments.
