Director: Max Pugh

Year:

INTERBEING is the first-ever documentary biopic about Thich Nhat Hanh, the legendary Vietnamese Zen master, peace activist, and Father of Mindfulness. From the war-torn streets of Vietnam to the world stage, his journey is a powerful reminder that compassion, clarity and inner peace are radical acts in a world in turmoil. This is the story of the world’s most influential spiritual leaders and how his timeless wisdom and teachings offer a bold, transformative antidote to today’s chaos, greed and division.

Director: Robyn Egan

Year: 2026

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.
