Kidnap Me

Synopsis

A Black Comedy about Sex, Lies and Gaffer Tape.
Ben and Charlie have it all - killer careers, great flat on the river, a tantalising sex life - but they're stuck in a rut.
Their efforts to keep the spark alive take them from swinging to dogging, but nothing is quite as expected! Ben has one last roll of the dice and books a 'Luxury Kidnap Experience' for Charlie's birthday.
Finally, all seems to be going to plan; but, who are these amateurs in balaclavas? Is that pee? And is Ben definitely sure he booked the spanking?

Director: Leo Metcalf

Year: 2024

Olly sifts through his memories searching to understand why he is the way he is. The narrative swings between two contrasting worlds: his memories of his first years, captured by his childhood drawings, and surreal underwater live-action scenes representing his dreams. We witness fragmented memories of a torn family - an abusive father, a mother whose memory seems faded, and a sister, Sally, encouraging her little brother to escape through imagination and dreams. As memory and fantasy blur, The Time Before becomes a meditation on the stories we tell ourselves to survive, and what is lost in the telling. Official Selection Aesthetica Film Festival 2024
