Boat Dreams Boat Dreams

Director: Sasha Andrews

Year: 2010

A cautionary tale of three characters whose DIY projects have got out of hand. Each has bought a landlocked craft in varying degrees of dilapidation. Will they break out of the boat 'graveyard' or remain on land, their vessels an alternative shed; a place for dreaming with no destination necessary?

Untitled Beatrice Gibson First Feature (La Nuit) Untitled Beatrice Gibson First Feature (La Nuit)

Director: Beatrice Gibson

Year: 2026

After an abortion, a woman wanders the streets of Paris, engaging in a series of silent encounters under the neon lights of Chinatown. Taking place over the course of a single night and drawing inspiration from the writings of cult literary figures Kathy Acker, Bernadette Mayer, and Alice Notley, the film intertwines dream and reality. Shot in the reddish glow of karaoke bars, cinemas, and clubs - a collective, feminist autofiction with a cast of artists, poets, and actors.
