Project Detail

Nobody Girl

Synopsis

Ales is a lonely thirty-something misfit who spends her days drinking, signing on at the job centre and watching TV. This routine is interrupted when she witnesses a student called Jenny being attacked by a gang of youths. The scene stirs up painful childhood memories of her abusive father and Alex chooses not to intervene. When she discovers that Jenny has been left in a coma as a result of the attack, Alex is plagued by guilt. Drinking heavily and growing increasingly angry that youths have not been caught, Alex decides that she will try to find them herself. Her initial attempts to find the gang do not go well, but upon hearing that Jenny is set to make a full recovery, she doubles her efforts. Writing everything down in her diary, she embarks on a rigorous training regime, fashions her own homemade body armour and turns herself into the masked vigilante, ‘Nobody Girl’.

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.
