Outlanders

Synopsis

Adam leaves his hometown in Poland and hitches to London to find his long-lost brother and build a new life. The city is cold and dangerous but it’s a magnet for migrants from all over Europe who have come to make their fortune. Adam meets a beautiful Russian girl, Anna, who works illegally to support her family back home.

Adam finds his big brother, Jan, who works supplying illegal foreign labour to construction sites.  Jan has everything – wealth, status and women. Adam is drawn into the glamorous life but is soon dragged down into the corruption at the heart of Jan’s world. After a brutal death at the building site, Jan is hounded by the police. Adam protects him but discovers shocking evidence of Jan's guilt. The police arrest Anna and force Adam to make the most difficult decision of his life: betray his brother or watch Anna be deported as an illegal.

Savage House Savage House

Director: Peter Glanz

Year: 2026

England, 18th Century. The Savages are at their lowest: they despise each other, their house is falling apart, and they are disliked in polite society - sleeping with their servants, and selling off jewellery to keep their gambling and drinking going. Oh, and Chauncey Savage’s foot might be rotting off. This is until they are set to be visited by higher ranking nobleman. The honour gives them a renewed energy to get new outfits, polish their silver, and hire new help to make sure the House of Savage is looking as impressive as possible.

A young man stares forward, surrounded by darkness, with some passing by distorting one side of his face Fair

Director: Benjamin Turner

Year: 2027

A group of teenage boys become entangled in a series of escalating "games" built around a single rule: don’t flinch. What begins as playful competition gradually shifts into something more controlled, more psychological, and more dangerous. As the boundaries blur, each boy is forced to navigate power, performance, and the pressure to appear unbreakable. FAIR explores how identity is shaped under pressure, and what it takes to hold your ground in a world where showing weakness isn’t an option.
