Ernesto
Two young, strong-willed Scottish sisters, one a left-wing activist, the other a most-popular-girl-in-school type, take their late father's ashes to Cuba, the site of many family legends of his services to the Revolution. Arriving in Havana, the two women promptly lose the ashes and go through a series of misadventrues - both romantic and dangerous - to try to retrieve them. A colourful and wryly humourous tale of cross-cultural misunderstandings and lost illusions.
Cinematography
A second rate film crew is shooting the third in a trilogy of tasteless (yet cheesy) horror flicks called FRIGHT FLICK. The schmuck-of-a-director can't keep his hands off the lead actress, the producer never gets his due credit, the supporting actress knows that SHE should be the lead, and the crew has secrets of their own. Competition in the movie business is tough enough - but anyone on this set would kill to stay on top.
Jason
A hopeless waitress and a melancholy neon sign maker are on separate paths and struggle through the everyday alone. Their thoughts for each other collide with magnetic force, can fate under the guise of a cupid cowboy and a band of coffee bean ants connect the lost souls?
Karim
The grind of daily life as a Brick Lane Bangladessi as seen through the eyes of Nazneen (Chatterjee), who at 17 enters an arranged marriage with Chanu (Kaushik). Years later, living in east London with her family, she meets a young man Karim (Simpson).
Murli
In India, the powerful and wealthy Percy invites the Miss India Ravina to be the star of a new inter-active virtual reality game of life that his company is developing, and she accepts his proposal. In London, the illegal Indian immigrant Murli programmer is responsible for the development of the game. The shy Murli is dating Billy, a single Londoner mother with a young daughter. When Percy's assistants Theo and Aurora download and steals the game, Murli is incriminated. Murli tries to contact Percy to prove his innocence, while Theo takes him to the edge.
Big Man Qassim
Everyone has Halloween, but in Yorkshire, they have Mischief Night, where madness and mayhem rule. In the course of one night, the barriers that separate two families—one white, one Asian—come tumbling down in a blaze of crime, clubbing, love and fireworks—changing all their lives forever.
Sanji
Set in Colonial India in 1925, the hunt for the most notorious man-eating leopard of all time.
Hassan Sabbah
Kamran is a 12 year old boy in the present day who discovers that his ancestor is the 11th Century Mathematician, Astronomer, Poet of Persia, Omar Khayyam. The story has been passed down in his family from one generation to another, and now it is his responsibility to keep the story alive for future generations. The film takes us from the modern day to the epic past where the relationship between Omar Khayyam, Hassan Sabbah (the original creator of the sect of Assassins) and their mutual love for a beautiful woman separate them from their eternal bond of friendship. Filmed almost entirely on location in Samarkand and Bukhara, Uzbekistan.
Derek
Film dividido en diversos episodios al estilo de "Short Cuts" o "Magnolia". Oscuro drama, cuyos personajes se ven irremediablemente abocados a situaciones que amenazan la estabilidad de sus vidas. Viven en una sociedad, en la que los privilegios y el origen social ya no garantizan la seguridad y el bienestar; en cambio, los valores y principios materialistas como el dinero, la belleza y el éxito se han convertido en los fundamentos de la vida.
