Let It Come Down Let It Come Down

Director: Anna Fredrikke Bjerke

Drama
A man is performing a song at a karaoke bar. Life of the Party

Director: Joseph Cummings

Year: 2026

A lonely, aging karaoke bar-owner attempts to make friends with a group of young men that enter his club. As his advances fall flat, his behaviour grows increasingly desperate.

Comedy Drama
Two women hold each other's gaze and hands with a gift box between them. Fish & Chips

Director: Macadie Amoroso

Year: 2026

Fab plans a surprise for Cassie on their first anniversary, but Cassie's rough day, coupled with a party popper mishap, leads to a heated argument over dinner options. What starts as a takeaway tiff over Caribbean or pizza spirals into an identity battle, revealing deep-seated resentments about their racial and queer identities. With half of the film shot in one take, FISH & CHIPS is a tender, unflinching exploration of mixed-heritage identity, queer love, and the fine line between connection and conflict.
