BUNKER

Remnants of a squad of soldiers serving a Fascist Regime have been ordered to remain in a Bunker and await further orders. As days to to weeks and all sense of time is lost, they begin to turn on each other and loyalties are questioned. When a mysterious prisoner is brought in amongst them tensions rise even further and they most choose between a brutal regime that’s all they’ve ever known and an uncertain future that may be lies spun by a killer.

ADRIFT

A group of friends in their early 20s head to the beach for what they think will be a fun day of sun sand and drinks when they happen across an unconscious mystery girl in a washed up boat. Through tensions and mystery, will they discover who this woman is and where she came from or will they be divided?

KERRY & JUNE

After the recent divorce June has been through, she decides to rent her apartment out to a young, charismatic woman called Kerry. A story between two generations and an unlikely friendship after a twist that turns their lives upside down. It’s fair to say they both learn a lot from one another. “After all, tomorrow is just another day!”
