Director: Huck Melnick

Year: 2009

Love isn't blind, just extremely short-sighted. Hardly Bear To Look At You takes an unflinching look at the addictive effect unrequited love can have on both parties. A myopic filmmaker tries unsuccessfully to seduce an enigmatic street performer, escorting her from London to Paris by train and then back again in her antique Citroen van. When he casts her in a film set in Cannes, his romantic obsession grows, leading to a conclusion that will force a re-evaluation of all that has gone before.

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.
