The Girl and the Horse
Synopsis
As the story unfolds she realises that the material things in life such as cakes, coins and pretty dresses will not necessarily make her feel literally whole and happy. The only thing that can fill the literally empty void of her unhapiness is her wonderful friendship with her horse.

In a near-future Britain that has deported all “non-British” people, a timid teenage boy hides the last Black woman in the country - then risks everything by bringing her to sing a well-known 2000’s RnB song at his 2000’s RnB-loving fascist father’s wake.
Nobody's Daughters
Director: Juan Pablo Bedoya
Year: 2026
Santo is a respected religious clockmaker and moneylender in his village. He exploits families in debt by using charm and kindness. When they cannot repay him, he persuades them to send their underage daughters to work as maids to pay off the debt. Ultimately, he sexually enslaves them and throws them out on the street when they become pregnant. His latest victim is Cira, an 11-year-old blackberry picker whose mother has pawned their home and land. After Santo's death, Maria Luisa, one of his victims, with the help of Fernando, his childhood friend and lawyer, fights for justice. After a long court battle, justice has finally been served, but not for everyone. Based on a real story.
