Director: Marley Morrison

Year: 2021

Socially awkward and environmentally conscious teenager, AJ, has a few things on her mind. Mostly how the methane from all the cows is destroying the planet, and how she would rather be anywhere in the world than on holiday with her painfully normal family. On discovering that there’s no Wi-Fi, AJ is determined to have the worst week of her life, but her plan comes unstuck when she becomes unexpectedly captivated by a chlorine-smelling, sun-loving lifeguard named Isla. In this charming coming of age tale, AJ falls in love for the first time, and back in love with her own family. Official Selection Glasgow Film Festival 2021 - Audience Award Winner

Violets are Blue Violets are Blue

Ash, a young trans man, sets out to find his birth parents after being diagnosed with terminal cervical cancer. Along the way he meets vibrant drifter Rose who refuses to let him quit. Together they embark on a journey of discovery and whilst looking for one thing, find quite the other. "The story was born of my own battles with gender identity, a need to discover the truth within myself and fully embrace myself as a non-binary individual... “I wanted to see my community reflected on screen, which is something I never saw growing up. With many films and TV shows the queer experience is filtered through a heterosexual gaze and is articulated in heterosexual terms. It’s important that we make films that are truly reflective of our communities, and that LGBTQ characters are as complex and interesting as heterosexual characters.” Marley Morrison

Wren is interviewed for a job at Brixham Fish Market. Gary shows her around and tells her to come back tomorrow, for the night shift. A few hours into the shift and Wren is flagging, she enjoys a moment of calm whilst smoking outside - until she is confronted with Cali, who wants a lighter and a chat. The next few nights, sleepless days and awkward interactions blur into each other until Cali greets Wren with a coffee and cigarette for the usual 2am slump. Wren is disgusted when realising Cali has spiked her coffee with brandy. Steph shows Wren how to fillet. Cali rushes to help, standing behind Wren, he places his hands on hers.Wren shrinks down, motionless, allowing Cali to puppeteer her, forcing his groin into her from behind. Wren empties her locker, she’s not coming back. She leaves, only to find Cali waiting for her, unbuckling his belt. Wren waits until his trousers are down, walks over to him, without breaking eye contact and guts Cali like a fish. She makes use of the “Monster Industrial Chum Grinder”, to dismember Cali’s body, discarding the chum into the sea at sunrise. She gracefully enters the sea herself, cleansed.
