Ex Stasis Ex Stasis

Director: Jake Astbury

Year: 2010

Ex Stasis is a short film based on the recount from an unknown source of a traumatic memory told through fragmented image and text. The film is framed within the confines of a domestic interior, revealed through motion, progressive frames and broken text to tell this dark narrative of an external threat that invades the home of a couple and their cats. The story is constructed in monochromatic and colour images, producing a foreboding domestic interior of disaccord, frightened cats and human panic.

A woman reading through script I Didn't Want To Be Here

Director: Fionnuala McCormack

Year: 2026

An intimate portrait of a women's group in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The documentary follows the women as they collaboratively create a stage production. Through writing sessions, rehearsals, and candid conversations, the women craft a performance rooted in their lived experiences - stories shaped by addiction, family fracture, and encounters with the justice system. The documentary follows the evolving group dynamic, capturing moments of vulnerability, frustration, and unexpected humour as the women negotiate what it means to share such personal stories in a public space for the first time.
