I am so looking forward to meeting them and having a MAD! discussion.” - Rob Brydon. “As we’ve never had the honor of meeting British Royalty, we are extremely excited to be in discussion with Rob Brydon, MBE and, incidentally, one of the funniest people alive.” - Ron Mael and Russell Mael.

The Black Panther Cubs: when the revolution doesn't come

They are the children of the Black Panther party – the self-styled Panther cubs. Born into the 1970s revolutionary movement for Black equality and self-determination, they have lived in the shadows of a promised land that was never attained. We join them as they continue to wrestle, 50 years later, with the dichotomy of their extraordinary childhoods: the enormous pride and love it gave them as members of the Black Panther family, and the booming loss they endured – of parents, of security, and of the hope for radical change that did not materialise. That hope lives on in the cubs, and their reflections on America’s current crisis offers burning lessons for today.

Plongeurs

In Marseille, Plongeurs are known for diving from extreme heights into the mediterranean sea. They are both applauded and vilified, regularly featuring in music videos, viral reels and local news; where journalists report romantic accounts of their exploits. Each summer, a death or severe accident occurs often leading the press to turn on the community, making them mascots for the city’s social ills. The film captures the story of these young men, as they navigate the uneasy transition from boyhood to adulthood; looking beyond adrenaline to reveal how this hazardous pastime helps them to articulate their complex identities and experiences.

Pretty Sick

Pretty Sick explores the impact of the ongoing COVID pandemic on those who are still masking, through the perspective of Sara—a disability advocate and artist based in Glasgow, who has been wearing masks since long before 2020. Through the creation of bold, glittering mask jewellery, Sara transforms a symbol of survival into one of defiance and hope. This intimate documentary weaves together disability, activism, and fashion, and invites us to reflect on what it means to make space—visibly, beautifully—for those most often pushed aside.

You Are Fire

You Are Fire is a collaborative project envisioned by Elvin Brandhi and Daniel Bird. This live film-performance reworks newly scanned 35mm outtakes and screen tests from the shooting of Sergei Parajanov’s The Colour of Pomegranates or Sayat Nova (1969) into 15 film miniatures. Originally conceived as a film-poem about the life of the poet-ashugh, Arutin Sayadyan, each miniature grows out of textures – Armenian, Georgian and Azeri architecture, landscapes and objects – enabling the authenticity of an era to emerge. Using Tigran Mansurian and Yuri Sayadian’s original soundtrack as raw material, the musical heritage of Sayat Nova is brought to the fore, reimagining a performance by an ashugh, or singer-poet bard, at the early 21st-century crossroads of analogue and digital media.

Hide and Seek

A student made film tackling the theme of space, how it is used and how it affects. In this particular instance we follow the quite absurd actions taking place in the context of quite a serious, linear and industrial setting. The actions intended to guide self awareness of the participants surroundings and allow them to in turn be more aware of them and the space they occupy. These instructions also form part of a list of equal absurd instructions which may continue to grow.

Sometimes I Want To Return... Sensitive LIVE

On the evening of February 12th, 2025, in a tiny venue deep in the heart of London’s West End, a very special group of people met to celebrate the launch of the album, Sensitive – An Indie Pop Anthology. This was a group of legendary, underground musicians who had helped define a movement characterised by an independent spirit, a desire to remain outside of the mainstream and to create romantic yet authentic music which spoke to everyday people about their everyday lives. The indie pop scene of the 1980’s was pivotal in shaping an attitude and aesthetic of do-it-yourself, the ripples of which are still felt today, over 40 years later, amongst young artists self-releasing music via digital platforms. Sensitive Live brought together the founding fathers of the indie pop movement for an exclusive, unforgettable, one-off show featuring performances of classic songs from the era, all of which can be heard in their original form on the Sensitive album.
