My Life as a Bus Stop

Synopsis

Trudy Jones-McCrone of Trude Films is the larger lady who is desperate to make a film but no-one is taking her seriously. Her skinny flatmate and wannabe super star actor, Luna Sea believes that he’s the best around but no-one else does. When his routine audition scene based at the bus stop, fails to win him the part in a TV pilot with producer/director/w**ker Vic Young, Luna convinces Trudy to produce his not so hot script, My Life as a Bus Stop. A mockumentary about people just trying to get on from the award winning and critically acclaimed indie filmmakers ’The Finnigans’.

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.
