The Deep West
Director: Chris Saunders
Year: 2016
Santa Monica, California - a beach boy/man dances alone. Against this familiar scene of west coast 'cool' narcissism Monica's every 'other' day story of being subjected to racist violence is retold and discussed by a white couple as they stroll on the beach.
A Book of Hours
Director: Chris Saunders
Year: 2001
A Book Of Hours follows a land surveyor and his assistant on a year long drive to the heart of middle England. Updated Medieval world pictures of love, harvest and hunting seen in the original 14th century calendar illustrations become the landscape of a new dark age.
A Time Before
Director: Leo Metcalf
Year: 2024
Olly sifts through his memories searching to understand why he is the way he is. The narrative swings between two contrasting worlds: his memories of his first years, captured by his childhood drawings, and surreal underwater live-action scenes representing his dreams. We witness fragmented memories of a torn family - an abusive father, a mother whose memory seems faded, and a sister, Sally, encouraging her little brother to escape through imagination and dreams. As memory and fantasy blur, The Time Before becomes a meditation on the stories we tell ourselves to survive, and what is lost in the telling. Official Selection Aesthetica Film Festival 2024
