Living in Hope

Synopsis

Posh is a fresher at Cabot University and on the same corridor in Hope Hall as Liam, Harry, Animal and Footsie. Liam is Irish, in love with Reena and wants to go home. Footsie is the quiet northerner who's at university to work. Harry's a cockney who wishes he wasn't. Animal's a sports fanatic proving himself to an over-competitive dad. And Posh is a public schoolboy who loves life but can't seem to love anyone.

It's fresher's week and Posh wants to chase girls and hang out with chinless public school wasters. Until he knocks down Animal while driving Footsie to a party. At the hospital he meets Liam and Harry and an unexpected friendship begins.

Posh lusts after Michaela, who fancies Liam, who hardly notices. Ginny is in love with Posh who definitely doesn't notice.

Posh invites the lads to his aunt's house on the moor. Animal turns it down to fulfil his dream of playing in the universtiy rugby team. But he isn't picked so he comes too, setting in motion events that force the lads, and Posh especially, to re-evaluate life and love.

And of course, there's a very tall bridge to jump off.

The Wilding

Director: Adam Park

Year:

Told through leaked footage compiled by a whistle-blower, the film follows Emma and Richard, a couple thrust into the wilderness to survive for 100 days. Their confidence quickly turns to terror as a malevolent creature begins stalking them, ultimately killing Richard in a gruesome attack. Emma escapes and infiltrates the facility where the show's creators review their "progress." There, she discovers the chilling truth: the creature is part of their unholy science. With the odds stacked against her, Emma turns the tables - delivering brutal justice with unexpected aid from the very horror that was meant to destroy her. A darkly satirical blend of horror, sci-fi, and mockumentary, THE WILDING exposes the monstrous extremes the powerful will go to cheat death - and the human cost of their ambition.
