The Hour of Living, our first feature film, was shot on HD in October 2010 and completed in February 2012, after just over fifteen months postproduction. Since then it has seen its Swiss premiere as part of the Basel Film Awards season ZOOM 2012, where it was nominated for the Basel Film Prize in the 'Best Feature' category. This was followed in August by the Italian premiere at the prestigious XVIII Film Festival della Lessinia and the New York Premiere at the NYC Independent Film Festival in October 2012. Further screening dates are set to follow.
In The Hour of Living, Theo goes looking for someone who can tell him about his dad and the person he was in love with as a young man. His quest leads him high into the Alps, where George has been living as a recluse for the last ten years. As the two men get to know each other, they start to make sense of their lives... more second feature in development

Our first short, Twenty-Six Takes on Life Without Allen, was a half-hour drama that looks at the triangular relationship between Allen (Matt Emery), his girlfriend Cathy (Charlotte Bicknell) and Allen (David Peto) and what happens to it when Allen is hospitalised in a coma following an accident on his motorbike. This screened at festivals in Los Angeles, Chicago, Lisbon and Padua and was followed by The Study of Bunkers & Mounds in a Temperate Climate (Relatively Speaking), which was in turn part of the Pardi di Domani selection at the International Film Festival Locarno in 2007. In it, Chris (James Watson) escapes from a domestic row to the Scottish Highlands, where he encounters the mysterious Spencer (Gary Grant) who may or may not be all that he claims to be: from a different world altogether...
Gary Grant then directed Daisy's Last Stand, a moving look at the last few hours in the life of Daisy (Carole Dance) who tries to go out one more time as she used to when she was her younger self (Sarah Wilkinson). Winner of the London Best of Boroughs Audience Award 2009. |
