Kiss and Be Friends
Synopsis
Sofia obsesses over nuclear war and lives in the shadow of the narcissistic Amandine but their toxic friendship is put to the test when Amandine crosses paths with Guilherme, a pseudo-intellectual Portuguese artist, at a fringe art event - derailing both friends' plans.
An acidic comedy exploring intimacy, identity, and the contradictions of being human in a generation powered by irony, anxiety, and Instagram.

Lady Macbeth Was Never a Girl
Director: Francesca McBride
Year: 2026
In the grey rhythms of a 1990s British secondary school, a student begins to sense a discomfort that has no name, just a feeling that the role they’re playing doesn’t quite fit. Through a missing pair of joggers, an unexpected line from Macbeth, and the quiet rituals of uniforms, registers, and school corridors, this film traces the first flickers of identity forming - not through revelation, but recognition.
