Devil's Playground

Synopsis

London: The not too distant future. Newgen Industries, a leading pharmaceutical company, is trying to placate a media uproar. Its new legal performance enhancer, RAK-295, has met with spectacular failure during testing, causing severe physical and allergic reactions in all 30,000 of its test subjects, except one - Angela Mills.

Angela, herself, is pregnant and is making arrangements of her own to leave a city full of woe and bad memories.

With Angela being the only person not to report any type of reaction to the testing, Dr. Brooke (head of Newgen) understands that Angela may hold the key to solving this disaster and enlists Cole, the head of security, to find her and bring her in for examination.

But Cole, a hardened ex-mercenary wants out from committing crimes to solve Newgen's problems, and has just handed in his resignation to Peter White, the CEO.

His timing couldn’t be worse. A violent outbreak of a test subject at Newgen's labs reveals that the drug has far more catastrophic consequences than anyone could have imagined, claiming life of Brooke and White in the process. And it's spreading. During the struggle Cole is also bitten, his fate sealed.

Or is it?

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.
