The Big Finish
Synopsis
At college together, studying courses that they have long lost their enthusiasm for, on the last day of the autumn term, 6 months before their final exams, they decide to leave it all behind.
However taking advantage of their media studies course they record their last day for prosperity. Intending to repay the cruel instigators of their often humiliating time spend studying, they line up a dazzling array of practical jokes, pranks and wind-ups.
Attempting to conceal their actions and avoid the attention of a potentially violent gang of "popular" students proves just a little bit too much, with disturbing consequences, ensuring that their last day leads to "The Big Finish" that they weren't exactly looking for.

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.
