Everything

Director: Richard Hawkins

Year: 2025

It is the summer of 1943. A small and very disparate group of people arrive on a remote Orkney island beach tasked with a top secret mission - the making of pornographic films for the boys at the front. For who knows how long this war still has to run, and fighting morale - as we learned only too well from the last one - is everything. So then, a very war-damaged former movie star; a celebrated German film-director; a munitions-machinist-come-aspiring-actress; an Etonian major from the Ministry of Information; an aging, alcoholic hair-and-makeup artist; a young lad, as innocent as can be, and right on the very threshold of war’s bloodbath. Oh, and a half-starved and very ragged Luftwaffe pilot, watching on from afar… Official Selection Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival 2026 - Winner, Best Production Design - Competition - World premiere Official Selection Glasgow Film Festival 2026 Official Selection Manchester Film Festival 2026

Sylvie is a 15-year old teenager passionate about photography. When she meets a photographer, Michael (36), taking portraits on the street, she hands her his camera and invites her to his studio. While Sylvie imagines he wants to help her, Riz, her best friend, warns that if a guy is talking to her, he’s only interested in one thing. Despite Riz’s remarks, Sylvie can’t help wondering what it might feel like to be seen through his lens. At the studio, Michael and Sylvie connect. She picks things up quickly, taking photos of him, then he takes one of her. Hesitant at first, she leans into it and starts to pose. When he turns away, seemingly uninterested, Sylvie removes her trousers. His light-touch manipulation has worked: she feels self-possessed, and in control. She leaves walking on air, already imagining the photo he took of her for his upcoming exhibition. She can’t wait to tell Riz. But at the exhibition opening, reality hits: an anonymous photo of her blood-stained knickers hangs on the wall instead. When Sylvie returns and sees Michael, she pretends everything’s Okay. And as the music swells, she seduces him and marks him with her menstrual blood.
