Synopsis

In small-town America, a solitary man drifts through life until a group of fearless young creators crash into his world. Ray Panthaki makes his feature directorial debut with a coming-of-middle-age drama, subtly weaving themes of historical colonialism into a modern story of identity, belonging, and unexpected connection. Filmed with a poetic, observational eye, IN STARLAND captures the punk-rock chaos of youthful rebellion colliding with the quiet reckoning of a life half-lived. A tender, sometimes volatile, meditation on chosen family, cultural inheritance, and the connections that can change us in ways we never see coming.

Synopsis

Inspired by the true story of Ramla Ali, Britain’s first female Muslim boxing champion and her journey to find her own identity in-spite of the world she was born into. Against the odds, she discovers the power of family, love, faith and self-belief as she learns how to open the door to her future.

Synopsis

A woman attempts to address the self that has shaped her life until now - the “Me” formed through trauma, habit, and survival. Conceived in relation to the cinema of Ingmar Bergman and Michael Haneke, the film locates meaning in the actor’s presence and in the organisation of cinematic form, rather than in dialogue or narrative guidance. This encounter is not a dialogue but a struggle: the effort to speak to a governing inner presence in order to loosen its hold. As the film unfolds, the confrontation moves deeper, toward a dark, underground interior where escape seems impossible. In the final movement, a rupture appears - a hole, a glimpse of sky, hands reaching upward from below. Whether she gets out remains uncertain. What matters is that the exit has been found.
