Project Detail

Cup Cake

Synopsis

When P J inherits his familys bakery following the disappearance of his parents, his shocking baking and business skills lead the shop into decline. Not wanting to break the promise he made to his mum and dad, with the help of his group of slightly dysfunctional friends and his foreign love interest Gala, he manages to revive Cup Cake and throw it back to its former glory. The reformation story does not go without, the odd dodgy spray tan, thanks to the towns local heavies, along with some insane robotic dancing and a couple of weddings varying in scale and colour.

Cup Cake will remind you what it is to love as well as opening your eyes to a whole new world of fashion.

Denzel Baidoo as Marcus, forlorn at the dinner table. Clocks

Director: Yv Shells

Year: 2026

When Arlo arrives to find Marcus has cooked someone else’s favourite meal, a single question begins to unravel an evening that refuses to stay in the present. Through a fractured timeline set entirely within one dining room, we move between Marcus and Arlo and the relationship that came before, with Una, the woman he met at a late-night bus stop and once talked about marrying. The same table, the same chairs, the same arguments about trust, honesty and what it means to truly see someone. As the timelines bleed together, it becomes clear that Marcus has never fully left the past, and that Una’s ghost sits at every table he sets. When Arlo asks what her own favourite meal is and he cannot answer, the film’s quiet devastation lands completely. CLOCKS is a portrait of a man who loves generously but sees poorly, and the women who carry the cost. It asks what we owe the person in front of us while we are still in love with someone we lost, and whether a feeling ever truly ends.
