Every day, thousands of dairy calves are separated from their mothers at birth. A DAIRY STORY follows Wilma and David Finlay as they risk everything to find a way to keep dairy cows and their calves together.
Filmed over two years, we see Wilma and David’s determination to reinvent dairy farming; challenging industry norms by putting nature and animal welfare first. Their path wasn’t easy. They faced criticism and ridicule from their intensive dairy neighbours and almost went bankrupt proving it could work.
When Wilma receives a terminal cancer diagnosis, their mission to encourage wider industry adoption of their cow-with-calf system takes on new urgency.
This documentary addresses themes of connection and mortality, and topics of animal sentience, the environment and system change. Following calves from birth to weaning, we see the herd's profound capacity for maternal care.
A DAIRY STORY shows how changing a farming system changes everything; from the lives of the animals to the wellbeing of the farmers, and perhaps even the future of dairy farming itself.

A haunting, introspective sci-fi drama that delves into the depths of grief and loss against the backdrop of a futuristic world.
The story follows Ursula, a young pregnant woman whose life is upended when she is abruptly ejected from Alexandria, a pioneering scientific space station that once served as a beacon of hope for humanity’s survival after the mass evacuation of Earth.

As she navigates the harsh realities of a world where survival is uncertain, Ursula encounters Noah, another soul who has been cast off from society. Together, they grapple with the choices that led to their exile, the weight of their pasts, and the overwhelming grief that binds them.
The film explores the echoes of Ursula’s late mother, whose tragic death haunts her every step, shaping her decisions and her understanding of loss. As Ursula and Noah traverse the desolate landscape of their fractured existence, they are forced to confront the pain of their shared and individual grief, finding unexpected solace in their companionship.

Light, without which life itself is impossible, is the working medium and obsession of director Thomas Riedelsheimer. Light, seen only in interaction with matter, allows us to explore the origin of the universe. In Tracing Light, science and art interact to illuminate the birth of stars and secrets of the molecular world. Einstein’s work on light changed our understanding of the world forever and revealed it as more complex and magical than was thought. Now, at a radical moment in physics, we bring together leading scientists, and artists who sculpt with light, across Scotland and Germany – from the Max Planck Institute at Erlangen, to Glasgow University’s Extreme Light Group and western reaches of Scotland’s Outer Hebrides, in a quest to understand and embody the ineffable. New questions are given voice, visually and sensually, in the language of matter; in the language of film – light.
