The Nyfa invited 34 young film-makers to team up with 34 young actors to produce four short films – with impressive results
"Oh Christ, Oh Christ, Oh Christ." Kyle Hilton is muttering to himself as he enters the BFI Southbank's NFT1. The 450-seat auditorium is slowly filling up as Kyle looks for the right spot from which to watch the premiere of a film he's worked on – his third short feature and the first film he's shown at a venue as large and as prestigious as the BFI. "Oh Christ, I'm stressed. I'm the editor. I've cut 15 minutes in two days. Five hours sleep in three days."
I'm telling him it'll be Ok, but he seems unconvinced. Then I lose him in the blur as 60 or so young people swamp the room. They push past me, but they see 21-year-old Kyle, because he's one of them. He seems to relax, finds the right seat and settles with them.
