Flushed

Synopsis

Sam, a chubby adolescent boy with low self-esteem is forced to confront the greatest challenge of his life - using the grimy school toilets. Overcoming his fear, he lands in a more compromising situation after getting locked in the toilet with the cleaner - an attractive older woman. Feeling awkward and embarrassed, Sam accidently gets trapped into a steamy conversation with her, oblivious that she is actually on her mobile phone talking to her boyfriend. Confused and uncomfortable, he bolts out of the cubicle only to realise, to further embarrassment, his mistake.

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.
