Synopsis
His action angers his sister and surprises his brother-in-law. Both attempt to change his mind but to no avail. He meets John on a routine call-out job. A mutual interest in football leads to John's offer of a free hotel room for Keith and his friend when they travel to Stockholm for an international football friendly taking place at the weekend. On route to the airport, realising he has left his passport, Keith returns home to find Claire in bed with Ryan, his brother-in-law.
Keith travels solo to Stockholm after his friend Dave, who has the match tickets, pulls out at the last moment. Angry, hurt and alone in a foreign city, Keith goes to the only place he knows; the hotel room offered by John. There he meets Anna, John's previous girlfriend, and ends up staying at her apartment. Over a period of several days, their complicated lives interweave as each one tries to manoeuvre the emotions of an unrequited love.

Director: Asa Gartland
Year: 2026
The Public have just played the best gig of their lives, and for the first time, someone in a suit is interested. It feels like the moment they have been waiting for, but celebrations quickly descend into chaos. Andy, the band's quiet and devoted guitarist, watches as his dream begins to dissolve around him. A chain reaction is set in motion as secrets are exposed, loyalties shift, and buried tensions explode to the surface. As the night spirals further out of control, the frontman, Ted, is pulled toward a future that could take him away for good. Andy becomes desperate to save Ted from himself and hold everything together, even as it becomes clear that some things will never be the same.
(In)Visible
Director: Sam Joseph
Year: 2025
(IN)VISIBLE explores the psychological effects of domestic abuse and society’s complicity in trial and judgement. A young wife, abused by her older husband, is misread as cold and detached while he charms his friends. When he suddenly leaves during a very awkward and tense pre-dinner gathering against the backdrop of a symbolic art exhibition, she finds herself at the centre of an uncomfortable, damning trial by those who only know his version of the story. The trial unfolds around a contemporary table setting, echoing iconic scenes from art history, showing the historical repeated patterns of how women are seen, silenced, and judged. The film’s emotional power lies in what remains unsaid, and it reveals the insidious nature of domestic abuse and the ease with which a perpetrator can shape a victim's story; in this narrative, the wife endures a hostile societal trial and judgment with strength, dignity and resilience.
