My Amulet

Synopsis

Set among the beehives and high heels, fur stoles and Ford Zephyrs of 60's and 70's London suburbia, My Amulet offers a personal take on Anglo-Jewish identity. Combining handheld Super 8 with current digital video footage, the film delivers poet Leah Thorn's spin on assimilation, acculturation and ‘other such aggravation’.

Glaciers Requiem Glaciers Requiem

Director: Saddiq Abubakar

Year: 2026

In isolation on Iceland’s Snæfellsnes Peninsula, Nigerian-born modular synthesis artist Colloboh transforms glacial and oceanic recordings into sonic compositions - uncovering a dialogue between ice and sea that reshapes his understanding of consciousness, ecological collapse, and humanity’s place within both. As his process unfolds, Colloboh transforms these sounds into layered sonic works that blur the boundaries between observation and communion. The film culminates in a haunting gesture: he plays the completed composition back to the landscape itself, completing a dialogue between artist and environment. A meditation on impermanence, consciousness, and the fragile bond between humanity and the natural world.
