Feeder Feeder

Director: Joseph Ernst

Year: 2010

Feeder - A short film that will make you feel sick. We want it. We buy it. We eat it. We swallow it down whole. But what does our body see when we stick it in our mouth? Filmed entirely from inside the mouth, Feeder tells a story, a simple story of excess over the course of a single day, without characters, locations or dialogue.

Africa Express Africa Express

Director: Emilio Guerrero Alexander

Year: 2026

Founded in 2004 by Damon Albarn and Ian Birrell, the UK music collective Africa Express has spent two decades bringing artists together across borders. In February 2024 it arrived in the Americas for the first time. Over eight days in Las Estacas, Mexico, more than 60 musicians from Africa, Latin America, Europe and the United States came together to rehearse, perform and create an album from scratch. Following Africa Express from Mexico through Europe and back, the film becomes a poetic journey through music, memory and imagination, celebrating the power of collaboration and community as reality slowly blurs with fantasy. With no single protagonist, the collective itself is the main character and music is its language. Africa Express is a portrait of a fleeting community and of what strangers from different worlds can build when they truly listen to each other.

Brian Johnson The Lives of Brian

Director: Bill Jones, Ben Timlett

Year: 2027
