Atomen
Synopsis
Inspired by Schnitzler’s 19th century play, Reigen (La Ronde), ATOMEN careers through the everyday lives and dilemmas of our characters, laying bare the alienation and disenfranchisement, and at the same time the longing for love and connection, even if the pursuit of this almost always fails…..
In this world, this world of late capitalism, where faith is lost, and truth is lost, and all are told to only care for themselves, how do people root themselves, find meaning, find enough hope to make life worth living – a life, as Freud said, of ordinary unhappiness, rather than extraordinary alienation?

The Wilding
Director: Adam Park
Year:
Told through leaked footage compiled by a whistle-blower, the film follows Emma and Richard, a couple thrust into the wilderness to survive for 100 days. Their confidence quickly turns to terror as a malevolent creature begins stalking them, ultimately killing Richard in a gruesome attack. Emma escapes and infiltrates the facility where the show's creators review their "progress." There, she discovers the chilling truth: the creature is part of their unholy science. With the odds stacked against her, Emma turns the tables - delivering brutal justice with unexpected aid from the very horror that was meant to destroy her. A darkly satirical blend of horror, sci-fi, and mockumentary, THE WILDING exposes the monstrous extremes the powerful will go to cheat death - and the human cost of their ambition.
