The Perfect Burger

Synopsis

A campaign for healthy school dinners arouses suspicion with the introduction of a healthy, but great tasting, hamburger. A group of students set out to uncover the secret of the burgers’ taste; a quest that leads them to a shocking discovery and a fight for their lives.

A high school enforces a healthy eating regime in an attempt to stop the children eating junk. The old dinner lady is fired and the school introduces Mr. Goodwin whose catering company has the secret recipe to a Burger the children will love, yet is good for them too.

A group of disparate students grow suspicious and band together to uncover the secret ingredient and the answer to why so many students have started to disappear.

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.
