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.
O Bom Velhinho Voltou
Edna
Quatro irmãs em conflito precisam aprender sobre união familiar na marra depois que o pai reaparece para o Natal na elegante mansão ancestral da família.
The Blue Door
A district nurse is assigned a new patient living alone in a dilapidated bungalow. The nurse soon discovers that her dying patient and the home she inhabits are hiding a dark secret.
Irmãos e Espiões

Só falta uma coisa na sua vida: o seu irmãozinho, Sebastian. Depois de terem sido adoptados por familias distintas em crianças, Nobby passou 28 anos a tentar localizá-lo. Finalmente quando descobre o seu paradeiro, Nobby parte para se reunir com o seu irmão, sem saber que este é um agente do MI6, nem que acabou de desvendar um plano que colocava o mundo em perigo. Em fuga e injustamente acusado, Sebastian apercebe-se que para salvar o mundo, vai necessitar da ajuda do maior dos idiotas.
North
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
Personal Services
Court Usher
The story of the rise of a madame of a suburban brothel catering to older men, inspired by the real experiences of Cynthia Payne. The story follows Christine Painter as the down-at-heel waitress who, with the help of prostitute Shirley and cross-dressing Wing Commander Morten, seeks to up her earnings by turning her suburban home into a brothel. Before long she and her girls are chaining up judges, spanking Generals and attending to the needs of Honourable Members. Christine sees herself as providing a vital service to these harmless pervs and when finally the house is busted and the case comes to court, it's fair to say that the presiding judge isn't unfamiliar with her work.
Othello
Senators-Soldiers-Cypriots
General Othello's marriage is destroyed when vengeful Ensign Iago convinces him that his new wife has been unfaithful.
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.
