Trigger Happy
Director: Andrew Gunn
Year: 2004
An office worker is robbed at gunpoint during his lunch hour by a female mugger, which leaves him reluctant to report it to the authorities. This simple tale about a dangerous game of mugging and sexual role play stars Ian Hart (Strictly Sinatra, Harry Potter) and Christine Tremarco (Swallow, Nice Guy Eddie) as the two main players, locked in a dangerous game of escalating violence. Trigger Happy, written by John Boas and directed by Andrew Gunn, is an edgy drama of crime and dark fantasy, in which crime does pay.
The Caravan Trilogy

In my Beginning Is My End
Director: Ben O'Connor
Year: 2026
Robbie exists on the margins of society. He lives alone on a narrow boat in rural England with little means. He has found solace in isolation and a humble life. Unexpectedly he is contacted with the unwanted news of his estranged father’s death. This drags up emotions from the past that quickly become too much to bear… And so, the story begins… A journey back into his past. A journey on a motorcycle to find his mother. He drives, alone, through desolate landscapes, barren and mountainous, into the depths of his mind. A dream world where Robbie is forced to confront his past. Two stories emerge; memories from his childhood recurrently appear, fracturing the present where ex-lovers who have shaped his life confront him in surreal encounters. With time the two stories collide, past and present become one. The road leads in one direction, back to his childhood home and ultimately, his first and now final love; his mother. For where he began, he will now end and know himself for the first time.
