Think of England

Synopsis

It is the summer of 1943. A small and very disparate group of people arrive on a remote Orkney island beach tasked with a top secret mission - the making of pornographic films for the boys at the front. For who knows how long this war still has to run, and fighting morale - as we learned only too well from the last one - is everything.
So then, a very war-damaged former movie star; a celebrated German film-director; a munitions-machinist-come-aspiring-actress; an Etonian major from the Ministry of Information; an aging, alcoholic hair-and-makeup artist; a young lad, as innocent as can be, and right on the very threshold of war’s bloodbath.
Oh, and a half-starved and very ragged Luftwaffe pilot, watching on from afar…

A sleepwalking Emma comes face to face with a mysterious entity The Wilding

Director: Adam Park

Year:

Told through leaked footage compiled by a whistle-blower, the film follows Emma and Richard, a couple thrust into the wilderness to survive for 100 days. Their confidence quickly turns to terror as a malevolent creature begins stalking them, ultimately killing Richard in a gruesome attack. Emma escapes and infiltrates the facility where the show's creators review their "progress." There, she discovers the chilling truth: the creature is part of their unholy science. With the odds stacked against her, Emma turns the tables - delivering brutal justice with unexpected aid from the very horror that was meant to destroy her. A darkly satirical blend of horror, sci-fi, and mockumentary, THE WILDING exposes the monstrous extremes the powerful will go to cheat death - and the human cost of their ambition.
