I Bring Joy
Synopsis
After accidentally killing a mugger in a street attack, her improved mood inspires her to play vigilante in her fight against depression. But in her industry, mood swings are common. Mid-depression, she strikes again but this leads her into the midst of a power struggle between boss Saul and his associate Floyd and attracts the attention of local boys playing detective.
Elsewhere Joy has arch-rival Megan in her sights. But Megan reveals her own assault by an industry Legend and, empathising, Joy spares her.
Unfortunately, Megan’s later suicide, and press attention allows Joy’s whereabouts to be discovered and when confronted on her doorstep by Saul, she recognises him as her boyfriend’s killer. In the final moments she comes full circle on her unconscious search for revenge.

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.
