Synopsis

An emotionally charged yet quiet film about an old couple going their separate ways. After a 50 year roller-coaster relationship fuelled by love, hate, and accusations of infidelity, now magnified by the filmmaker’s Grandmother’s obsession with the past, his Grandfather has reluctantly decided he can no longer cope with the continual verbal abuse and constant attention she requires. They will part: Taki leaving for Cyprus, whilst Tina is being prepared for a nursing home. One More Kiss is a film about a pivotal point of decision in the lives of two colourfully rich characters and explores the substance of love and the overriding consequences of age, migration and illness. It delves into the existential realities of the tragic nature of all relations and ultimately love. A minimalist and intensely moving look at old age - filled with moments of beauty, sadness and humour.

Synopsis

In a world that is not quite here and not quite now, a young boy (Isaac-Newton) and girl (Marie-Curie) meet. However, in this world this simple fact should not be possible. In this world human FREQUENCY has been discovered. If you are high frequency, you are born lucky – you will have natural ‘timing’ and always be in the right place at the right time. If you are low frequency every natural law will conspire against you. Marie is super-high frequency, Zak is ultra-low. Nature should ensure that they never cross paths. Yet they do. Every year they get to spend exactly one minute together before nature dramatically intervenes. Over the years it becomes an obsession for Zak to change his frequency and be with Marie. What he discovers may allow him to realize his dream, but will change everything we know about ourselves and our destinies, forever.

Synopsis

'The Summit' is a feature length documentary about the deadliest day in modern mountain climbing history. In August of 2008, 22 climbers from several international expeditions converged on High Camp of K2, the last stop before the summit of the most dangerous mountain on Earth. 48 hours later, eleven had been killed or simply vanished into thin air. Like a horror movie come-to-life, it was as if the mountain began stealing lives, one climber at a time. At the feet of the heavens – ‘the death zone’ - the body literally dies with each passing second and the mind can play tricks. Morality above 8,000 metres is skewed 180 degrees from the rest of life. When a climber falls or wanders off the trail, the unwritten code of the sport is to leave them for dead. Survival depends on self- preservation at all costs.
