Project Detail

That's for me!

Synopsis

Zara Zimmerman is a North London wannabe on a mission to crack the big-time at any cost, and her family will do anything to help her get there. No matter that she is utterly talentless and has been rejected by every actors’ agent going: every Friday night, her equally delusional mother, failed actor father and an assortment of dysfunctional relatives conspire over chicken soup to plot her inevitable rise to stardom. But when even a celebrity life coach fails to deliver, they realize the time has come for some rather more desperate measures.

A mockumentary in the style of This Is Spinal Tap with a cringe factor that would make The Office’s David Brent blush, That’s For Me! is a biting satire on fame that will make you laugh and hide in your seats with its outrageous characters and pitiless portrayal of family values gone wrong. Featuring outstanding performances from leading British talent including Harriet Thorpe and Steve Furst, That’s For Me! is a razor-sharp take on the Big Brother quest for those elusive fifteen minutes.

British-Mexican woman sat on her bed with a tray on her drawing a comic. Chasing Home

Director: Christopher Mills

Year: 2026

A British-Mexican comedy, the first one of its kind in terms of representation, about identity, family dynamics, and the relentless pressure to “have it all together” by your 30s. The film explores the universal themes of self-worth, envy, and societal expectations, while asking a core question: What makes someone a failure in the eyes of themselves and others? At its heart, this is the story of Camila, a 30-year-old British-Mexican comic book creator whose life is spiralling out of control. As she faces a job loss, mounting financial pressure, and the revelation that her 51-year-old mother is unexpectedly pregnant, Camila's desperation grows. She’s torn between familial obligations and her own dreams of independence, symbolised by a flat she can no longer afford. Her personal journey is a chaotic and sometimes humorous collision of cultural expectations, family dysfunction, and her own insecurities.
