EMR EMR

Director: James Erskine, Danny McCullough

Year: 2005

Erskine and McCullough’s debut feature is a deft thriller that cleverly weaves together a host of urban myths – from kidney-stealing and alien abduction, to manipulative drug corporations; this is a paranoiac’s wonderland. Reminiscent of Jacob’s Ladder and with shades of Donnie Darko, the plot winds its way, Rubik’s cube-like, to a satisfyingly twisted climax. At times sinister, surprising and striking, and with an endearingly hapless hero, EMR is a refreshingly British take on the thriller that will make you think twice the next time you knock back a couple of aspirin.

A man in 1700s American attire is standing with one hand on a shovel, looking off into the distance. The Short Life of Jaxon Blume

Director: Oliver Walker

Year: 2026

Two brothers embark on the journey of a lifetime to see the ocean, all while being hunted down by a detective for a murder they may or may not have committed.

Lluest Lluest

Director: Gareth Bryn

Year: 2028

Eryri, North Wales, 1780. Maggie Jenkins has spent her life caring for her dying father in isolation. When he finally dies, she sees a chance to escape the life of duty that has defined her. But then her brother Endaf, long presumed dead, returns through the snow with a wounded Algerian soldier in tow. Welcomed home as a hero, Endaf soon reveals himself to be cold, controlling and dangerous. When the village takes Maggie’s home and inheritance from her and gives them to Endaf, she is pushed to the brink. Set against the brutal winter landscape of 18th-century North Wales, LLUEST is an elemental revenge drama about a woman forced to fight for her freedom — and what happens when she finally refuses to be silenced.
