Daniel and the Superdogs

Synopsis

Eleven-year-old Daniel is feeling abandoned. His mother died a few months ago and his father Mark, still reeling from the shock, has buried himself in his work. That doesn't leave much time for Daniel and a rift of mutual incomprehension grows between son and father. Happily, Daniel can count on his best friends Colin and William, with whom he hangs around regularly and with whose help he is training an abandoned dog for the Superdog show!

His relationship with April, a girl his age whose mother runs a dog pound, isn't nearly as happy. When all is said and done, however, after a story full of twists and turns, he wins April's affections and he leads his dog Gypsy to victory at the Superdog show.

A Night in Porto A Night in Porto

Director: Antonio Sequeira, Anastasiia Vorotniuk

Year: 2026

Two former lovers unexpectedly reunite on a Christmas night in Porto. Their encounter sparks a reflective journey into whether life offers second chances at happiness.

My Little Blue Heart My Little Blue Heart

Director: Iqbal Mohammed

Year: 2026

In a near future in rural Britain, Mustafa cares for his deaf sister, Amna, spending their days together in their hidden, isolated home. One morning, anti-immigration vigilantes descend, tearing them apart and leaving each to navigate fear, loss, and the quiet brutality of a world shaped by far-right policies. Amna escapes and searches for her brother, moving through the fields with determination, only to witness a horrific event. A meditation on family, the unbreakable ties between siblings, and the devastating cycles of violence that fracture lives. Against the backdrop of systemic oppression, the film explores how hate divides families, how love endures, and how the human heart persists even in the face of destruction.

The Angel in the House The Angel in the House

Director: Missy McNaught
