Sweet Potato Sweet Potato

Sweet Potato

Sweet Potato is a story of discovering how we want to be loved. Emilia’s relationship with Tarron is fiery and hot, but is it quite right? When her female friend, Sam, opens Emilia’s eyes to acts of love and tentativeness she’s not experienced before, what she wants from relationships is called into question. Fragments of memory are intertwined and battle one another as Emilia enters an inner conflict that sings of the early twenties experience and a young woman’s first steps of queer discovery.

THE SWEET HASSLE OF A FIRST TIME THE SWEET HASSLE OF A FIRST TIME

THE SWEET HASSLE OF A FIRST TIME

Across multiple splitscreens five couples have sex with each other for the first time, with all the accompanying awkwardness that seldom makes it onto the silver screen. They try to hide the smeared lipstick, hairs on tongues, floppy bellies and tears of pain or joy that lead up to their climax, sooner or later or not at all. A carefully choreographed, tragi-comic sex film without boobies or behinds.

MATKA / POLKA [MOTHER / POLE] MATKA / POLKA [MOTHER / POLE]

MATKA / POLKA [MOTHER / POLE]

MATKA / POLKA [MOTHER / POLE] is a meditation on what it means to be a woman in today’s Polish society. As a collection of stories – all verbatim – from waiting rooms, gynaecology chairs, abortion clinics, and bedrooms, the documentary bears witness to everyday acts of patriarchy and systemic violence. Adopting a poetic visual language, MATKA / POLKA breaks the taboo around the experiences, emotions and identity of Polish women who have faced the country's strict reproductive policy and social prejudices to make decisions about their own life and body.

Someone To Carry You Someone To Carry You

Someone To Carry You

After an out of the blue (and hilariously bizarre) text from her childhood BFF, Serena takes her boyfriend on a heartwarming--and occasionally unbelievable-- journey through a friendship that colored, defined and maybe even saved the girls' adolescences. Someone to Carry You pays homage to friendship, eccentricity, nostalgia and the miracle of finding your very first soulmate.
