Pictures Of Lily

Synopsis

A nameless businessman arrives by the coast for a meeting. When this is postponed at the final hour, he wanders aimlessly through a hip, young bohemian town and sticks out like a thumb-in-a-suit. He stumbles into a flea market and, whilst perusing its wares, spies a woman, Lily, who appears to be everything he feels he is not - youthful, modern, confident, brave and alive.

After an initially awkward encounter, Lily agrees to be his 'tour guide' for the day, with the caveat that they reveal no trivial information about themselves, such as names or back-story; they should just enjoy their time together and keep an open mind.

Through Lily's anti-romantic cynicism and the Man's mysteriously lovelorn air, the pair begin to find
an unexpected common ground and mutual appreciation.
They walk, talk, drink and smoke like it's the last day; they watch other couples interact; Lily introduces the Man to her friends, the music, the lights, the attitude and the night.
They bond and break and fall in like.

Yet when the light returns, are they destined to part the way they met … as strangers?

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.
