Every Six Hours
Directed by Thomas E. Murphy
Running for freedom is never as easy as it seems. Two refugees form an unlikely friendship while fighting for their lives hiding in a lone container.
Set in a time where the modern world is on the brink of collapse, Every Six Hours is the story of Katiya and Sakura. Two Refugees from Russia and Japan respectively, both trying to make it to a better world. On the run and trying to find shelter for the night, Katiya enters a shipping container stacked to the brim with boxes and is finally allowed her moments rest. When she wakes up, she realises two things. That she is not alone, and that her shelter for the night has been moved onto a container ship.
Also nominated for Best London Filmmaker.
Not An Excuse
Directed & Produced by Hector Bel
This film is a portrait about a Percussionist at music school who suffers with ADHD. He tells us how it can affect him on a day to day basis but also how it can be a blessing in disguise. We see how his passion for music works as a coping mechanism for him. The subject’s character and condition are reflected in the filmmaking so the viewer can get a feel what life is like for someone with ADHD.
Also nominated for Best Documentary and Best London Filmmaker
