Thanks To Meet You!

Name: Thanks To Meet You!
Director: Richard Hunter
Genre: Comedy
Released: 2025
Duration: 13 min 12 sec

Synopsis

A surreal comedy featuring five businessmen attempting to conduct some business. However; discussions ranging from the varying degrees of colours that asbestos comes in, the sorrow felt from killing a little blue bird, the strong desire to kick slow walking strangers into oncoming traffic and an idea to use underpants-wrestling as an apology for an out of place physical altercation - all keep getting in the way of actually allowing any formal business transactions to take place.
THANKS TO MEET YOU! pushes you face first into a bewildering trip through the corporate wormhole, as the nonsensical water-cooler moments simultaneously fill your nostrils and cover your eyeballs until you can no longer breathe.
And then it just sort of stops.
Official Selection Toronto International Film Festival 2025 - World premiere

Wren is interviewed for a job at Brixham Fish Market. Gary shows her around and tells her to come back tomorrow, for the night shift. A few hours into the shift and Wren is flagging, she enjoys a moment of calm whilst smoking outside - until she is confronted with Cali, who wants a lighter and a chat. The next few nights, sleepless days and awkward interactions blur into each other until Cali greets Wren with a coffee and cigarette for the usual 2am slump. Wren is disgusted when realising Cali has spiked her coffee with brandy. Steph shows Wren how to fillet. Cali rushes to help, standing behind Wren, he places his hands on hers.Wren shrinks down, motionless, allowing Cali to puppeteer her, forcing his groin into her from behind. Wren empties her locker, she’s not coming back. She leaves, only to find Cali waiting for her, unbuckling his belt. Wren waits until his trousers are down, walks over to him, without breaking eye contact and guts Cali like a fish. She makes use of the “Monster Industrial Chum Grinder”, to dismember Cali’s body, discarding the chum into the sea at sunrise. She gracefully enters the sea herself, cleansed.
