‘Still’ is a heartbreaking drama about the memories that make us and the lines that divide us. Ach and Agus are together, trapped in a place they don’t know, needing each other to help define who they are – but as they remember, as they build a picture of the past, the boundaries between love and hate, injustice and revenge, victim and perpetrator, threaten their existence.
(Running time – 30 minutes)
‘Signs of Life’ is a playful, philosophical meditation on the effects of isolation on two astronauts as they carry out a series of psychological tests. In a new land are we the same, do we belong together, is our concept of life too narrow, do you need a body to be conscious? Eve and Amelia may be going insane, may only have each other or may have made contact with the soul of the universe.
(Running time – 30 minutes)
