Matriarchy

Synopsis

A disturbed mother distorts her adult son’s views of reality, locking him under a set of specific rules designed to keep him from leaving the home. Unable to leave and forced to undertake ritualistic tasks and tests, the son’s patience wears thin. His innate curiosity is heightened with the mental deterioration of his grandmother and the discovery of an unusual man in the basement, which threatens to disrupt the unnatural equilibrium that has formed within the home.

Close But No Cigar Close But No Cigar

Director: Tom Hutt, Will Hutt

Year: 2017

Scott and his dim-witted companion, Joel (Local residents of the Cambridge area) are enlisted to help out in purchasing an old VW Campervan by an unlikely buyer – Scott’s slightly estranged, Uncle George. The simple lives of the rural Cambridge residents, Scott and Joel, are transformed rather quickly when they’re suddenly confronted with the reality that Uncle George might be up to no good. Thrust into a world of debt collectors, armed Campervan robberies, dog kidnappers and even an unsuspected psychopath, the pair along with Uncle George – the nemesis responsible for their predicaments - work through the comedy of errors that unfold never quite getting to the bottom of things. They get close, but no cigar!
