Domestic Policy
Director: Alicia MacDonald
Year: 2016
In 1919, a tea lady eavesdrops on a top secret government meeting called to solve the latest, gravest problem facing the British Empire... A satirical comedy which wryly suggests that today’s obsession with female appearance was borne out of one official government meeting. Official Selection BFI London Film Festival 2016 - Laugh Strand
SightNotSeeing
Director: Sheung Man Yim
Year: 2026
SIGHTNOTSEEING captures a cultural tour in post-colonial Kowloon, around the remnants of the Walled City, but not the kind of tour you'd expect. Filmed in a single overhead long take, it drifts through performance, misunderstanding, and (post-)truth, held together by confusion and just enough confidence to carry on. Official Selection International Film Festival Rotterdam 2026 - World premiere
A Mustard Seed
Director: Femi Oladigbolu
Year: 2026
Mide, a young man brought up in a traditional Nigerian family, has spent his early years within the strict confines of a Christian Pentecostal household. In Mide’s home, tradition and faith are intricately intertwined, guided by the family’s patriarch - Mide’s father.
