Finding Dad
Mabel
A remarkably self-assured debut, this East London fairytale feels truthful throughout, due to the real-life experiences of the director, and using the same locations. Daisy Fairclough in particular shines as Anita, who sets out with her best friend to find her real father, after the death of her alcoholic mother.
Navidad en el paraíso
Edna
Cuatro hermanas enfrentadas reciben un curso acelerado de cómo conseguir una buena armonía familiar, cuando su distanciado padre se presenta inesperadamente en su elegante mansión por Navidad.

Grace
Isolated on a farm and fighting against his family's decision, Aaron struggles to be heard as he watches his mother willingly die.
Blackout
Nan
Feature-length 'What-If' drama exploring the effects of a devastating cyber-attack on Britain's national electricity grid. Based on expert advice and meticulous research, Blackout combines real user-generated footage, alongside fictional scenes, CCTV archive and news reports to build a terrifyingly realistic account of Britain being plunged into darkness. The film plots the days following a nationwide power cut, as experienced by a cast of ordinary characters struggling to feed and protect themselves and their families. These eyewitness accounts reveal the disastrous impact of a prolonged blackout on hospitals, law and order, transport, and our food and water supplies. The programme casts members of the public from user-generated footage, weaving real-life archive with scripted drama to tell the story of how Britain could descend into chaos and anarchy without power.
Resnick: Rough Treatment
A kilo of cocaine. Hardly what two small-time crooks were expecting to find when they broke into TV director Harold Roy's shabby mansion. But nor was Harold's frustrated wife expecting to fall in love with one of the intruders. Now she's going to make a deal with him - for both her husband and the drugs. But the precious powder belongs to someone else. And he wants it back. So if he feels he's been double-crossed, there's no telling what might happen. Detective Inspector Resnick has a hunch that there's more to this story than meets the eye. And as his investigations lead him down the mean streets of the TV industry and an inner-city drugs ring, it's obvious that more than one person is dancing on thin ice

Otelo
Senators-Soldiers-Cypriots
Adaptación del drama homónimo de Shakespeare, una obra sobre los celos, esa pasión capaz de corroer el espíritu de los hombres. Es el reflejo del alma humana, tejida de los más puros y viles sentimientos, deseos y pasiones. Othello, un noble capitán moro del ejército veneciano, y Desdémona, hija de Brabancio, un viejo y conservador aristócrata, se ven obligados a defender su amor ante todos. Cuando Othello parte hacia Chipre a luchar contra los turcos, Yago, su sirviente, movido por oscuros deseos, empieza a tejer la trama que desencadenará la tragedia. Yago es cobarde, envidioso e innoble, por eso desea acabar con la felicidad de su amo. Sabe lo frágil que es la frontera que separa el amor del odio en el corazón humano. Al volver de Chipre, a través de las insidiosas palabras de Yago, Othello construye un universo de sospechas a su alrededor. Incapaz de reconocer la verdad, cae preso de los celos.
The End of Arthur's Marriage
Mavis
In this off-beat musical – a satire that combines fantasy, social observation and songs – a working class man goes to put a deposit on a new house only to find he prefers spending to saving and is happy to spend his money on a few hours of happiness rather than a lifetime's conventionality.
