Synopsis

A love triangle that takes place between an East London rock-roll manager and two of his clients – a French, girl singer on the verge mainstream success and the young, front-man from a local punk-band who’s starting to crash and burn. As the star-crossed lovers tear each other apart, a showcase gig in Shoreditch turns bad, igniting anglo-muslim racial tension – now there’s a riot on Redchurch Street that can only end in blood-fire and redemption.

Synopsis

An experimental response to the epic contemporary composition, Prometheus, written by Brian Ferneyhough. Commissioned by The Royal Philharmonic Society as part of their Encore scheme.

Synopsis

The Making of Us is the latest collaboration between theatre director Graham Eatough and visual artist Graham Fagen. It combines live performance and installation into a drama about how far we’ll go to get on in the world. The central character Jonathan begins the story as a spectator, is persuaded to become its central actor, and ends up its victim. The Making of Us explores its themes of theatricality and authority through a mixture of cinematic and documentary techniques with a leading cast of Scottish actors and renowned DoP Michael McDonough.

Synopsis

World-renowned, shamanistic artist Barry Flanagan was one of the world's foremost figurative sculptors, with his work exhibited in streetscapes such as Park Avenue in New York, the Champs Elysées in Paris and O'Connell Street in Dublin. His trademark hare sculptures marked him out as an innovator and he once described himself as an English-speaking itinerant European sculptor.

In this documentary, one-man filmmaker Peter Bach embarks on a personal journey by making a vow to Flanagan, who at the time is wrestling with motor neurone disease on the island of Ibiza, that he will travel the world and bring back footage of strangers by his public works and film the artist watching them as he wrestles with his disease.

This journey of discovery takes us across Europe and the United States and is a celebration and homage to Flanagan's work.

Synopsis

The sequencing of colour and sound for Twice Over followed a pattern based on progressions across the scale of colours and tones. An element of chance was introduced by re-filming a second variation, overlaying it with the first sequence. In the gap between layers, aleatory colours and tone combinations arise.

Synopsis

When the Song Dies is a poetic documentary that weaves stories, songs and memories from across Scotland, and places their testament in counterpoint to the richly evocative landscape of Galloway. Exploring the theme of change, the film brings the audience under the captive spell of the old ways.

Even home life has become impossible, as his father-in-law, a disgusting and difficult old man, has been kicked out of his nursing home and has moved into Ravi's spare bedroom. But then that 'tip top man', his cousin, Sonny, has his brainwave, his 'great eureka'.
