Tipping Point

Tipping Point

Synopsis

Set across Kenya, a cinematic documentary that immerses the viewer in a world where ancestry and progress coexist in tension.
In the rural heartlands, a tribal community embodies heritage through agriculture ritual and craft.
In Mombasa, a young professional works at the intersection of technology and evolving infrastructure, facing constant change.
A school student balances home and classroom life while imagining a future shaped by tradition and opportunity.
Filmed in a 'fly-on-the-wall' style, without narration or talking heads, the film unfolds through observation: the pounding of grain, the rush of traffic, the laughter of children, the silence of ceremony. By weaving these strands together, TIPPING POINT asks a quietly profound question: At this cultural and economic crossroads, what does well-being mean, and is happiness being redefined?

Maverick: The Epic Adventures of David Lean Maverick: The Epic Adventures of David Lean

Director: Barnaby Thompson

Year: 2026

An in-depth study of David Lean, the man and his films. David Lean was one of the greatest filmmakers. He redefined what films could be, but his singular vision and tenacious determination to film the impossible earned him a reputation as an obsessive maverick. He was a master of his craft, capable of creating love and beauty on screen, but whose personal life was often troubled, uprooted, and painful. Featuring interviews with contemporary filmmakers including Wes Anderson, Paul Greengrass, Alfonso Cuarón, Celine Song, Brady Corbet, Francis Ford Coppola, Denis Villeneuve, Nia DaCosta, and Joe Wright. Official Selection Cannes Film Festival 2026 - Cannes Classics - World premiere

We, The Hated We, The Hated

Director: Rich Felgate

Year: 2026

Told through the lives and motivations of those on the frontline, WE, THE HATED turns its camera on the people behind one of the most polarising protest movements in recent memory. What emerges goes deeper than placards and road blocks: these are individuals who have weighed up the personal consequences of action against the existential stakes of inaction. With fossil fuels driving both the climate crisis and global conflict, and governments increasingly cracking down on dissent, the film raises urgent questions about protest, power and what democracy actually means in practice. Director Rich Felgate, who is in a relationship with Just Stop Oil's founder, brings an insider closeness to the story whilst retaining enough balance to speak to audiences well beyond the already converted.
