Some Voices

Synopsis

Adapted for the screen by Jon Penhall, from his own play, Some Voices is an emotionally charged drama/comedy of life in west London - a love story and an examination of the relationship between two larger-than-life brothers. The film tells the story of Ray, who is released from a psychiatric hospital into the care of his over-worked and over-protective brother, restaurateur Pete. Things start well, with Ray working for his brother with comic consequences. But when Ray falls head over heels in love with Laura, a wild Scottish girl, and stops taking his medication, things start to spiral out of control.

As Time Swallows Time As Time Swallows Time

Director: Rosario Hurtado, Roberto Feo, Stuart Bannocks

Year: 2025

AS TIME SWALLOWS TIME weaves fragmented narratives into a poetic dialogue between two entwined inquiries. The first engages with the curatorial focus of BIO28 (Ljubljana Design Biennale), which interrogates the historical symbolism linking women to flowers - figures of fragility, sensuality, and objectification - and the ways these associations have been reclaimed and subverted. The second unfolds as a speculative exploration of time and temporal perception as forces shaping human consciousness and evolution. Together, these threads compose a meditation on transformation, perception, and the cyclical nature of existence. Constructed through the juxtaposition of narrative fragments, the film layers scenes in a manner that invites viewers to navigate and reassemble its temporal and conceptual terrain. The film presents a dialogue between the Ljubljana Biennale’s curatorial theme, “Do You Speak Flower?” which explores the historical contexts in which women have been symbolically linked to flowers—figures of fragility, sensuality, and objectification—and how those associations have been reclaimed and subverted, and this theme directly, and the authors speculative exploration of time, temporal perception and post humanity.
