Happy F****** Endings

Synopsis

Ever get bored of happy endings? Why does every rom-com feel familiar? Happy F****** Endings is an existential romance with a sci-fi twist that is the result of what happens if the characters of a film get bored with their stereotypical relationship story.

Old friends Rachel and Iain, both in their 20s, desperately pursue their independent paths to what they think is true love, whilst slowly realising their love for one another. As their story reaches its inevitable happy ending, Clare, who so far has simply been a pawn in their courtship reveals that she is in fact in control of the path their story takes. Bored by the naïve developments Rachel and Iain’s story has taken thus far, she decides to make them re-live the scenes of their budding romance desperately trying to find a way to make a new love-story. However as things progress it looks that she may have to just face up to the reality that perhaps a romantic comedy will never really be able to break it's own rules, and that, inevitably, there will always be a happy f****** ending.

A young man, sits alone in a cafe, deep in thought. A bouquet of disregarded roses in front of him. The Game

Director: Blaize Mott

Year: 2026

Donald, a lonely young man desperate to improve his dating life, hires a manipulative pick-up artist, Charles, to teach him how to meet and attract women. Over the course of one night in London, Donald is pulled into a world of performance, pressure and control, where confidence becomes coercion and desire begins to blur with power. What began as a harmless lesson on love transforms into a night where the methods he is instructed to use to achieve his goal are far darker than he could have ever imagined.

Ken Russell's The Devils Ken Russell's The Devils

Director: Ken Russell

Year: 1971

A dramatized historical account of the rise and fall of Urbain Grandier, a 17th-century Roman Catholic priest accused of witchcraft following the supposed possessions in Loudun, France; it also focuses on Sister Jeanne des Anges, a sexually repressed nun who inadvertently incites the accusations. An enduring masterpiece of cinema, KEN RUSSELL’S THE DEVILS is a prescient epic of obsession and corruption – and a defining work of art from seminal filmmaker Ken Russell. Assembled from the original camera negative, this new 4K restoration presents Ken Russell’s definitive vision of THE DEVILS by referencing the edit he privately constructed in 2004. KEN RUSSELL’S THE DEVILS is the uncut and unfiltered theatrical experience that Russell always envisioned.
