I'll Sleep When I'm Dead
Synopsis
His young, womanising, street-smart brother Davey (Jonathan Rhys-Meyers), to whom he's devoted, is a dashing, minor criminal. After scoring a deal and partying late into the night, he's followed home and attacked.
Sensing something is amiss, Will is pulled back to the city. Shocked and distraught, Will's antennae are re-tuned to the rush of London as he begins to investigate the disturbing event.
He seeks the counsel of his former gang-mates, ignites the jealousy of crime boss Turner (Ken Stott), visits the distressed Mrs Bartz (Sylvia Syms), tracks the mysterious Boad (Malcolm McDowell) and rekindles his relationship with Helen (Charlotte Rampling), the wise, romantic restauranteur.

Croupier
Director: Mike Hodges
Year: 1998
An ingenious and unpredictable story of the wheel of chance, of good luck against bad, of fate against coincidence, of plot against destiny. It is told from the inside, through the life and feelings of an anonymous croupier.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> In our age of uncertainty, it is about the deep need for security set against the temptations of risk. The story is an original take on the universal obsession with gambling. Constructed like a night spent in a casino, winning one minute, losing the next, Croupier is paced like a thriller. Each twist of the story exposes the eternally divided personalities of men. And women.
No Women No Children
Director: Akporé Uzoh

The Wilding
Director: Adam Park
Year:
Told through leaked footage compiled by a whistle-blower, the film follows Emma and Richard, a couple thrust into the wilderness to survive for 100 days. Their confidence quickly turns to terror as a malevolent creature begins stalking them, ultimately killing Richard in a gruesome attack. Emma escapes and infiltrates the facility where the show's creators review their "progress." There, she discovers the chilling truth: the creature is part of their unholy science. With the odds stacked against her, Emma turns the tables - delivering brutal justice with unexpected aid from the very horror that was meant to destroy her. A darkly satirical blend of horror, sci-fi, and mockumentary, THE WILDING exposes the monstrous extremes the powerful will go to cheat death - and the human cost of their ambition.
