Synopsis

1985 was a difficult year for me. My mother had died, an attempted love affair went badly wrong, I hadn't made a film for five years. I bought a video camera and went to Cuba for three weeks. Music and memory play important parts. I first heard this particular music in Louis Malle's LES AMANTS (1958) when I was a teenager.

Synopsis

After being away from home and estranged from his family for three years, a Palestinian transgender man returns for the first time to attend his father’s funeral. But, when he arrives, he’s met with a cold reception, making him wonder if he can face his past, make peace with his family, and find his own closure with his father. Blending comedy and drama, Alterations reveals moments of humour, tenderness, and quiet resistance. It explores how identity is negotiated within family structures, and how transformation - like grief - is both deeply personal and universally human.

Synopsis

A multi-layered crime drama set in contemporary Europe and beyond, inspired by real events and personal experiences. The film follows interconnected characters whose lives are shaped by loyalty, moral dilemmas, and the consequences of their choices. The story spans five countries - Poland, Japan (in the heart of Tokyo), Myanmar, Ukraine, and the UK (London). It draws on true experiences: the main character spent three years in a martial arts monastery in Japan during his twenties, and a war reporter who was kidnapped during the conflict in Ukraine, prompting a tense rescue mission. These events form the backbone of a story the characters never meant to tell. Through parallel storylines, BASTION explores the complex web of relationships, conflicting interests, and personal responsibilities that define human behavior. Grounded in realism and driven by authentic characters, the film delivers an intense, emotionally resonant narrative where every decision carries weight. This drama presents a gripping, uncompromising portrayal of courage, loyalty, and moral choice, revealing the story they never meant to tell and offering a rare glimpse into human experience across continents under extreme circumstances.
