Dirty Boy
Synopsis
Isaac witnesses the ritualistic murder of a beautiful refugee woman at the hands of senior cult members. He escapes the house and finds evidence that the cult’s charity is a front to exploit the female refugees they claim to save. They’re being used to breed more children for the cult. And if they are not able to conceive, they become ‘sacrificial’. Isaac soon discovers that he is being framed as the murderer, and as he races to prove his innocence and save the life of a vulnerable refugee soon to be sacrificed, he begins to find out that he is not who he thought he was. As Isaac uncovers a web of systemic abuse leading to the highest levels of power, he begins to unravel the secrets of his own identity and insanity.

Galicia!
Director: Anna Maguire, Kyle Greenberg
Year: 2026
What if you went on a holiday and the apocalypse happened? GALICIA! is a found-footage, hybrid-documentary following a couple through home video footage as they visit their friends at a winery in rural Spain and inadvertently capture the end of days. We live in a time where the sense of our impending mutually assured destruction is more real than it’s ever been. GALICIA! Takes the form of a holiday video - a document of a couple before - and after the great cataclysm. The film starts as something that feels unedited - an accidental video diary of an ordinary couple that feels somewhat ghostly as much as it is also pedestrian. As the film evolves and degrades, we are led to question the fragility of humanity, as well as its power to endure.
