Tokyo Jim

Synopsis

Jim is an English lawyer in Tokyo finalising a very important deal with Mr Yakamoto - a Japanese businessman. Unfortunately Jim is not feeling that well. On top of that, Mr Yakamoto has taken an instant dislike to him. The last thing in the world Jim wants to do is to go for a celebratory post-deal drink. Being a good lawyer, however, Jim agrees to go, although there is just one thing he needs to do before they leave.

Galicia! Galicia!

Director: Anna Maguire, Kyle Greenberg

Year: 2026

What if you went on a holiday and the apocalypse happened? GALICIA! is a found-footage, hybrid-documentary following a couple through home video footage as they visit their friends at a winery in rural Spain and inadvertently capture the end of days. We live in a time where the sense of our impending mutually assured destruction is more real than it’s ever been. GALICIA! Takes the form of a holiday video - a document of a couple before - and after the great cataclysm. The film starts as something that feels unedited - an accidental video diary of an ordinary couple that feels somewhat ghostly as much as it is also pedestrian. As the film evolves and degrades, we are led to question the fragility of humanity, as well as its power to endure.
