Spring Fever
Director: Anna Snowball
Year: 2019
Sex education. Awkward memories, right? Boys and girls separated, a flustered teacher, the bare biological facts and a dose of shame. In the Netherlands, they do things differently. Children from the age of four learn to talk about their bodies and sexuality in an open and frank manner. This documentary observes a diverse group of pre-teens from Amsterdam, having a candid conversation about their changing bodies with an inspiring teacher. This isn’t just a sex ed class, this is an anti-shame class. Official Selection BFI London Film Festival 2019 - Love Strand
The Solway
Director: Eamon Bourke
Year: 2026
Filmmaker Eamon Bourke lost his mother, Sue, when he was three and has no memory of her. When his father decides to sell the remote Lake District home where she died, Eamon returns with his camera to document the house and its clearing. Among Sue’s belongings - diaries, poems, photographs and tapes - he discovers a box of damaged cassette recordings. After painstakingly repairing them, he uncovers something extraordinary: his mother’s voice. Through these intimate audio diaries, Sue speaks candidly about motherhood, sings to her children, and captures fleeting family moments Eamon never knew. One final tape records her describing the onset of hepatitis, days before she fell into a coma and died in 1983. Another, more haunting still, features three-year-old Eamon calling out to his unconscious mother in hospital, in a desperate attempt to bring her back. As Eamon pieces together this archive, he confronts the enduring impact of early loss, speaking with his father and sisters while retracing the emotional landscape of his childhood. Set against the vast beauty of the Lake District, a deeply personal exploration of grief, memory and love - an attempt to recover what was lost, and to finally say goodbye.
