Our lives rarely end up fitting in one category. So do short films. 
This mixed programme brings us on a journey through time and identities, from a 12-year-old desperate to save his beloved dog in the shadow of World War II and a modern mid 40s freelancer desperately (and comedically) in need of some work, to a grandmother with mid-stage Alzheimer’s disease in search of a family heirloom.
 

Blondi’s War (Dir: Lee Dilley, Sid Jenkins) - Derby, United Kingdom - 12:12min 
On September 3, 1939, Britain declared war on Germany, and during the following weeks, a deeply unsettling event unfolded, marking a hidden chapter in British history.

[INSERT SHORT FILM TITLE] (Dir: Kory Orban) - Vancouver, Canada - 12:21min 
In the mind of every filmmaker, there are two wolves locked in an epic, eternal, and fierce battle for control and influence. The combatants? The analytical left brain and the whimsical right.

Seeing Read (Dir: Beth Perkin, Natasha Perkin) - Lowerstoft, United Kingdom - 7min 
Ever sent a text you wish you could unsend? Zoey, a chaotic girl in her early twenties, is plunged into stress when she texts Miles, the guy she likes, to ask him out on a date, and is left "on read".

Half the World is Sleeping (Dir:Yuchen Peng) - University of Nottingham, United Kingdom - 13:57min 
Elsa has mid-stage Alzheimer’s disease. Often her world is confusing and chaotic, her only constant being an old family heirloom; a compass from the First World War that belonged to Elsa’s grandfather.

The Trail (Dir: Joseph Ollman) - London, United Kingdom - 13:30min 
Estranged siblings Martin and Sam reunite for a walk through their childhood woods, hoping to reconnect. When a lone hiker crosses their path the boundary between reality and delusion disintegrates, as the siblings face a chilling nightmare that tests their fractured bond.

JUST BE AWESOME (Dir: Ed Kear) - London, United Kingdom - 13:33min 
With spiralling debts and a partner at the end of her tether, Alex, a mid 40s freelancer, desperately needs some work. A golden opportunity at an absurdly trendy agency offers a way out. But he's going to have to play their game if he wants to land the role.
