Last Chance Romance

Synopsis

Last chance romance tells a thought-provoking story of an old woman at the end of her days and the surprise visitors that come to escort her on her surreal journey to 'The Great Beyond'.

Set on the lonesome salt marches of Norfolk, England, an elderly, weatherworn woman endlessly sweeps the ever-present dust outside her solitary caravan. As she dreams of release from her lot, two impeccably attired lotharios appear at her door offering a thrilling regress to the days of her youth. But are their motives sincere or sinister?

Join us on a journey through the twilight of everyman's life. The dreams that sustain us, the fortunes that find us, and the images that ultimately define us. In the space of just a few minutes 'Last Chance Romance' transports us into the future of our own existence, and the age old question of what lies beyond.

Gorgeous Labour of Love Gorgeous Labour of Love

Director: Stacy Harrison

Year: 2007

A surreal short film set in the ruins of London, driven by a contemporary music-hall libretto. The film contrasts the beautiful and grotesque in a narrative focusing on the universal question - are our lives driven by destiny or chance? This powerful short narrative embodies key aspects of the classic Gothic tale, with echoes of Du Maurier's Trilby and Le Fanu's dark stories. The mystery of the 'true' nightmare of the narrative is left to the viewer to decide.
