Annie Waits

Marnie Paxton-Harris, UK, 2017, 9mins

We’ve all waited for ‘the one’. The one who catches our eye, the one who keeps our interest, the one who won’t expect us to trudge down that conventional path. Annie Waits tells the story of lust and disappointment, as a twenty-something waits for her adult life to begin.

 

Pregnant Pause

The Full Story

Daisy Jacobs, UK, 2017, 8mins

A loving, close-knit family falls apart as we hurtle through the Seventies into the divorce boom of the Eighties. Many years later, when the family home is sold, hindsight and fragments of childhood memory combine to reveal the full story.


Close Ties

Zofia Kowalewska, Poland, 2016, 18mins

Barbara and Zdzislaw are soon to celebrate their forty-fifth anniversary. It would have been quite the occasion if not for the fact that Zdzislaw spent eight of those years living with another woman.
