Fog World
Synopsis
This film captures the hilarious diary of this failure, in which Ryan calls on a 4x4, a GPS gnawed by the cold, an elf and a Viking guide with whom he maintains a virtual correspondence. Moving between simulated reality, video games and cinema, the film explores the geography of a country marked by the exoticism of its landscapes, often used as backdrops for Hollywood movies. A hilarious look at the way in which new technologies condition our ways of representing territories.

Director: Ruaidhri Ryan
Year: 2024
Following a film director's journey from London to Los Angeles to meet a storyboard artist, Janet, who storyboards the journey the director has made to meet her.<br /> Searching for movie-worthy encounters, the director pursues epiphanies and main character moments while walking in the canyons and driving on the freeways of the cinematically saturated city. The storyboard sequence is altered when Janet unveils a shocking story of her own. Humorously riddled with digressions, PREVIS is at first an enlightening insight into the mysterious mechanics of movie-making, told through the collaborative dynamic of director and storyboard artist. <br /> Official Selection Visions du Réel Festival 2024 - International Medium Length & Short Film Competition

Director: Hannah Berryman
Year: 2024
A landmark feature documentary about astronaut Eileen Collins, the first woman to pilot and command the Space Shuttle.<br /> Eileen’s incredible journey starts with her smalltown beginnings, sees her smash through many glass ceilings, and culminates in four dramatic space shuttle missions, the last being possibly the most dangerous and most important of them all.<br /> At its heart the film is the moving human drama of one family, where a mother’s extraordinary career takes us straight to the big philosophical question of what is the level of acceptable risk in human endeavour? <br /> This film celebrates Commander Collins’ trailblazing NASA career which opened the way for women to become spacecraft pilots and commanders, and proved a perfect riposte to a previous generation of male astronauts who thought there was no place for women to lead the way in space. <br /> Official Selection DOC NYC 2024 - World premiere<br /> Official Selection CPH:DOX 2025 - European premiere
