- Created by a collective of neurodivergent filmmakers in an attempt to provide an alternative and artistic take on what it's like to live with neurodivergence in a chaotic world not made for those who are different.
- In Alexandra, South Africa, where two thirds of the women are abuse survivors, a group of mothers are on a mission to change the fate of their neighbourhood, right from the beginning. Through a series of inimate, and at times, uncomfortable, conversations, 1001 DAYS takes the audience on a journey. Through the chaotic and narrow streets of Alexandra, we follow the fearless and charismatic health-workers Zanele, Thandiwe and Khosi. They are three mothers from the heart of the community, who doggedly support hundreds of new mothers, during some of their happiest-and lowest-moments. Their aim: to help new mothers during the first 1001 days of their babies' lives, which are the most critical in any human's life.
- A father who chooses not to live with his children is still a father. But, in the eyes of many, a mother who chooses not to live with her kids is a monster. In this provocative short documentary, three women who made the decision to mother from afar tell their stories, and open up about what they lost-and gained-when they left the homes they had shared with their children. At a time when there's growing acceptance for alternative family models, why does the idea of non-custodial motherhood still have the power to shock and appall.
- Having been born the year of the Fukushima nuclear disaster, ten-year-old Eri has grown up in the shadow of the event that defined her hometown, despite having no recollection of it herself. When her family joins a local sunflower planting group who are hoping to rid the soil of toxins, she begins to learn more about the memories of those around her.
- We follow one woman as she heads to sea on a fishing boat. In the eerie night or under the still bright sun, it's not always clear where or when this is. It appears as a dream removed from the particulars of the woman's circumstances and so in her melancholy narration she might not just be describing her own life alone, but also ours.
- Long before COVID-19 had consumed the world, Roxanne and Rachel were well acquainted with mask-wearing and self-isolation. Both women believe they suffer from an allergy to WIFI. Not just wifi, but cell phones, computers, most electronics, perfumes, washing powders, and a whole host of other general 21st century commodities. So extreme have their respective conditions become that single mum Roxanne has been forced to leave her 10-year-old daughter and move into a car parked as close to the ocean as she can get it, and Rachel has fled the country to a remote area of Portugal. Canary follows Roxanne and Rachel as they desperately search for somewhere to call home, where they can shelter from the onward march of modern life, and where Roxanne can be reunited with her young daughter.
- The Climate and the Cross was commissioned by the Guardian. The film explores some of the different ways in which the issue of climate change is understood by American Christians. Religious freedom and access to abundant natural resources have been cornerstones of the American identity for centuries. This context goes some way to explaining America's status as the largest producer of green-house gasses, and also the very high rates of religious affiliation - unusual for a wealthy nation. Spanning across 7 states, The Climate and the Cross explores the different ways that Christians understand climate change. As well as exploring their Christian beliefs, the film also asks how other factors such as place, political identity, race, class and the experience of extreme weather events coalesce to shape views on global warming.
