PART 1
Films:
THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE FURY
Dir/Wri/Pro: Luke Walters
Lead Actor: Tyson Fury (Former World Champion, The Gypsy King)
In a shadowy forest, five friends gear up for a day of paintball, only to hear whispers of a legendary figure who haunts these woods—a paintballer so feared, he's become a myth, known as "The King”. Friends quickly realise, this is no ordinary game. One by one, they face the wrath of a legend, as the story of "The King" unfolds in an epic showdown where only the fiercest will survive.

CAKE
Dir Essence Aikman Wri&Pro Rebecca Schott
Grace has baked her dearest friend a birthday cake. However, when Grace’s gesture is not appreciated, her generosity takes an obsessive turn.

REVENGER
Dir/Wri/Pro Owain Paciuszko
After 25 years away, Gavin (Russell Shaw) has returned to his hometown to enact a twisted vengeance upon the man who wronged him all those years ago, but a mix of memory, resentment and nostalgia may have warped his path. Starring Russell Shaw (Witch, Adventure Boyz, Scummy Man), Adrian Stokes and David Wilson.

ECHELON
Dir/Wri Jennifer Masua-Zola Pro Sarah Sanches
Solana, the only black ballerina in her company, grapples with the demanding world of dance while supporting her mother through a health challenge. A series of poignant moments unfold, from Solana’s meticulous pointe shoe preparations to her rigorous ballet training, alongside her mum's care routine. As she faces the anticipation of a crucial audition and her mother's next hospital appointment scheduled for the same day, Solana’s resilience is tested. Echelon explores the delicate balance between pursuing one's dreams and the sacrifice it is paired with.
