The Uninvited

Synopsis

Rose, a former actress turned stay-at-home mom, struggles to reconcile her new life with her past. As she prepares for an important cocktail party hosted by her husband, Sammy, a lost elderly woman named Helen arrives, claiming to live in Rose's house. This unexpected guest disrupts Rose’s evening, adding chaos and hilarity to her attempts to balance domestic duties.
Helen, also a former actress, mirrors Rose’s struggles with aging and lost identity. Alongside Delia, a young ingénue, the women represent different stages of womanhood within Hollywood's societal expectations. Adding to the mix, a movie star who’s also Rose’s ex-lover, and a famous film director attend the party, further complicating the night. The event becomes a stage for unfolding drama, rekindled romances, and revealed secrets.
A poignant and introspective comedic drama exploring female identity, motherhood, and self-discovery in Los Angeles.

Two women hold each other's gaze and hands with a gift box between them. Fish & Chips

Director: Macadie Amoroso

Year: 2026

Fab plans a surprise for Cassie on their first anniversary, but Cassie's rough day, coupled with a party popper mishap, leads to a heated argument over dinner options. What starts as a takeaway tiff over Caribbean or pizza spirals into an identity battle, revealing deep-seated resentments about their racial and queer identities. With half of the film shot in one take, FISH & CHIPS is a tender, unflinching exploration of mixed-heritage identity, queer love, and the fine line between connection and conflict.
