How does one inhabit a world in which “the moon / & the drone hang in the same sky”? Doyali Islam’s poem 'letter' interrogates this question, offering no solutions. The work is saturated with longing – and charged by it.
A first of its kind documentary exploring the events that lead to the Jallianwala Bagh Massacre, also known as the Amritsar Massacre of 1919.
Presented by Kuldip Singh Sahota, we explore what really happened on that fateful day of April 13th 1919 in the heart of the Punjab, Amritsar. With the help of author of 'Garden of Bullets' Saurav Dutt, author of 'The Butcher of Amritsar' Nigel Collett, Dr Harish Puri and Dr Stephen Badsey, the events that lead up to the massacre are contextualised.
The massacre itself caused the deaths of up to 1000 innocent Indian men, women and children.
After the massacre a strict curfew was imposed on the city, thus stopping dead and the dying receiving any medical help. Then immediately a martial law was declared which further punished the local population with crawling and flogging orders.
When the strikingly confident Sapphire Jones meets the loitering Leon Magritte, it sets off a chain of events that strips away the layers of the planned city to reveal something dark and primal lurking beneath.
MIDSUMMER BOULEVARD is equal parts film noir, black comedy and cult murder mystery.

Using real pop-up paper folds filmed in 3D and enhanced with VFX, these titles introduce viewers to the bucolic setting for 'Queens of Mystery' - a tongue in cheek mystery tv series about three crime writer sisters helping their cop niece solve murders.
A modern day comedy of errors which addresses the key issues of mistaken identity, modern technology and female ageism. Although we see the world from a male perspective through our protagonist Adam, it is a story for a female audience with searingly current themes.
The documentary was made in the wake of the director's own loss of his mother, who in her last days of life received very poor palliative care by the hospital.
The film is aimed to raise awareness around palliative care and end of life care, and covers interviews from a number of UK leading experts in palliative care. The film also takes great care not to leave out the story of those directly in receipt of palliative care. Unlike others films on this subject, the director's primary narrative aim is not to have a film about dying but instead have a film that looks at how to live life to the best until those final days.
SEARCHING FOR MEANING is a collage of education and thoughtfully blended aspects from what is a heartfelt story of a lady who even in the face of death, continues to demonstrate incredible courage by living life to the max. The director is also himself in receipt of palliative care and it's that emotional connection with the subject matter which is truly apparent in this film.
Soundtrack to Sixteen is a coming-of-age film about two anxious teens growing up in London in the 2000s.

Meanwhile Ben, a boy from a nearby school, is happy being a nerd and thinking he’s better than everyone else until his grades start plummeting. For the first time he must come face to face with the idea that he might, in fact, be average.
When the two meet each other on the night bus things get even more confusing for them as they attempt to navigate their first potential romance under the stress of exams that will define their future.
