The Ride
Director: Tara Aghdashloo
Year: 2022
When their car breaks down on the way back to London, a young couple hitch a ride with a lorry driver. The journey slowly reveals the cracks in their relationship as three worlds collide in unexpected ways.
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.
A Little Death
Director: Leto Meade, Jonathan Rockefeller
Year: 2026
Death’s patience is tested as his sweet and gentle apprentice appears incapable of the task, leading him to seek professional help from the most unlikely of places. Official Selection Annecy International Animation Film Festival 2026
