Synopsis

Mike Green is lost: no money, dead end job and a pregnant girlfriend. Since he was a boy, Mike has been in love with comic books and the escape they offer. When a leading publisher hears of Mike’s own comic book and offers him the chance of a meeting, without a thought Mike grabs what he can and heads for London.

When things don’t go as planned a chance meeting with Lucy, a waitress haunted by her past, opens his eyes to the beauty of possibility and shows him that not everything is already drawn.

Director: Leo Metcalf

Year: 2024

Olly sifts through his memories searching to understand why he is the way he is. The narrative swings between two contrasting worlds: his memories of his first years, captured by his childhood drawings, and surreal underwater live-action scenes representing his dreams. We witness fragmented memories of a torn family - an abusive father, a mother whose memory seems faded, and a sister, Sally, encouraging her little brother to escape through imagination and dreams. As memory and fantasy blur, The Time Before becomes a meditation on the stories we tell ourselves to survive, and what is lost in the telling. Official Selection Aesthetica Film Festival 2024
