Weathering
Director
Weathering intertwines the deeply personal stories of two Black key workers as they reveal their experiences of racism in the UK. The film explores the impact of the UK government-imposed Covid-19 lockdowns, and the worldwide anti-racism movement which grew after the murder of George Floyd. Both events have acted as a magnifying glass for the inequalities that exist within British society.
The Uncertain Kingdom
Director
A ground-breaking anthology of twenty short films by twenty filmmakers, which together offer an alternative snapshot of the UK in the year 2020.
