Go Make Memories

Synopsis

GO MAKE MEMORIES is a short film which hopes to raise awareness of the ultra-rare and devastating group of genetic conditions, Niemann-Pick Disease (NPD).

The experiences of the individuals and families affected by NPD takes centre stage in this production, which uses a mixture of live action and animation to explore the impact this rare condition has on those affected by it. The film follows the deterioration of the child and the subsequent emotional turmoil that comes hand in hand with such a diagnosis...especially when this is followed up with the suggestion by the family's doctor to simply, "Go Make Memories"...

Galicia! 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.
