Project Detail

You're Fired

Synopsis

In a small quiet town in the north-east of England, there is a murder. A sports journalist who hates sport quits his job. A bouncer is fired for 'bouncing'. And a girl is jilted at the altar. These seemingly random events spiral together when the three accidentally bump into each other in the same pub. As the girl drowns her sorrows, the writer works on a crime script, and the bouncer starts talking, little do they know that someone is listening. Now all three are entangled with a beautiful widow, a suitcase full of money, an ever-increasing body-count, and a dubious pint of semi-skimmed. Will the bouncer ever get his hands on the money? Will the bride ever find out what happened to her husband-to-be? Will the writer ever live down last year's under-12s five-a-side mascot fiasco? Will they even survive a murder case they're not supposed to be involved in? Soon all will be revealed, and delivered straight to your doorstep!

A young man, sits alone in a cafe, deep in thought. A bouquet of disregarded roses in front of him. The Game

Director: Blaize Mott

Year: 2026

Donald, a lonely young man desperate to improve his dating life, hires a manipulative pick-up artist, Charles, to teach him how to meet and attract women. Over the course of one night in London, Donald is pulled into a world of performance, pressure and control, where confidence becomes coercion and desire begins to blur with power. What began as a harmless lesson on love transforms into a night where the methods he is instructed to use to achieve his goal are far darker than he could have ever imagined.

Ken Russell's The Devils Ken Russell's The Devils

Director: Ken Russell

Year: 1971

A dramatized historical account of the rise and fall of Urbain Grandier, a 17th-century Roman Catholic priest accused of witchcraft following the supposed possessions in Loudun, France; it also focuses on Sister Jeanne des Anges, a sexually repressed nun who inadvertently incites the accusations. An enduring masterpiece of cinema, KEN RUSSELL’S THE DEVILS is a prescient epic of obsession and corruption – and a defining work of art from seminal filmmaker Ken Russell. Assembled from the original camera negative, this new 4K restoration presents Ken Russell’s definitive vision of THE DEVILS by referencing the edit he privately constructed in 2004. KEN RUSSELL’S THE DEVILS is the uncut and unfiltered theatrical experience that Russell always envisioned.
