Maddest Man
Synopsis
The world of crime can be viewed as a type of left-handed endeavour where the potential rewards are the same for the high flyers of legitimate business. However, the consequences of failure within this illicit cut throat environment offer an entirely different set of repercussions.
Greed can distort an individual's perspective. Easy money is a fuel that allows the greed to grow. Biting the hand that feeds you becomes a temptation that is never far away. There are people you can take liberties with, and then again there are also people with whom you can't. Make a wrong judgement and there are only a few alternatives as to how events will run.
Maddest Man paints an unnervingly realistic portrait of a world that few people ever see. It is a compelling drama that offers a stark warning as to what can happen within a lawless culture.

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.
