Following Yago
Synopsis
Jack has recently given up his full-time job to concentrate on writing a book on the Mary Rose. Finding it easier to work at night, his routine has changed and he now sleeps during the day. Meanwhile, his wife, Maddy, continues her job as a photographer in order to support them both. Then, one day, much to Jack's horror, Maddy brings home a self-help book with a view to improving what Jack thought was a perfectly happy relationship.
The film is, unusually, set completely in one location (the couple's house) with only the two lead characters seen throughout. By giving the audience a private insight into their lives behind closed doors, the story explores how situations that occur in our outside lives affect us and, in turn, our personal relationships.

Following Yago
Director: Adam Cooper
Year: 2003
Following Yago is a quirky study of married life. It takes the popular genre of romantic comedy and shifts the focus away from the typical 'boy meets girl' scenario to examine how a couple stay together and whether this is the basis of true love. Jack has recently given up his full-time job to concentrate on writing a book on the Mary Rose. Finding it easier to work at night, his routine has changed and he now sleeps during the day. meanwhile his wife, Maddy, continues her job as a photographer in order to support them both. It is nearing their wedding anniversary and they are planning a wedding to celebrate. Then, one day, much to Jack's horror, Maddy brings home a self-help book with a view to improving what Jack thought was a perfectly happy relationship. The film is, unusually, set completely in one location (the couple's house), with only the two lead characters seen throughout. By giving the audience a private insight into their lives behind closed door, the story explores how situations that occur in our outside lives affect us and, in turn, our personal relationships.
About A Bell
Director: Simon Callow
Year: 2026
Sami, a Syrian refugee in the UK, and Bryony, an aimless young librarian, embark on a highly personal quest to preserve a bell from a demolished Christian church. What begins as a civic protest quickly becomes a criminal case when they accidentally near fatally injure a security guard, and find themselves on the run from the police. However, our accidental heroes’ fate is sealed by a kindly police sergeant who is moved by their mission, and our odd-couple achieve their goal of saving the bell and reminding the town they both call home about the importance of remembering its own story.
