Based on a same-name 2013 short from Higginson, Relax follows Casper (Darby), a charming, but embarrassingly underprepared time traveler, now trapped in the past. When he befriends Holly (Graham), a jaded drifter, she helps him exploit his trivial knowledge of the future for a series of quick payouts, oblivious to the consequences they have set in motion. When tracked down by a more competent time traveler, Casper and Holly are forced to figure out what they mean to each other and whether the future they’ve threatened is even worth saving. Will they embrace their fate, or do they have the courage to change it?
Star, a suicidal teen now too old for foster care, develops a candid rapport with An, a student from Shanghai who is assigned to watch her while she is in hospital. A nightly exchange of secrets, text messages and possessions quickly expands the boundaries of their relationship, altering their inner chemistry. Gilded by a soundscape that interweaves work by emerging and pioneering electronic musicians, Queens of the Qing Dynasty is an offbeat ode to neurodiversity and genderqueer individuals who refuse to conform. Director Ashley McKenzie’s blend of formalism and gritty realism does not fail to surprise and treats the audience to flashes of visual and conceptual poetry. Her cast is entirely composed of first-time actors who convincingly convey how unique every individual is, both in how they see the world and how they relate to others. Ziyin Zheng in the role of An graciously embodies a mix of idiosyncrasy and frankness that makes them an ideal confidante for Star (Sarah Walker). They have what it takes to be on the receiving end of the scrutinising gaze of Star, who sees through conventions and never ceases to be amazed at life’s bewildering events. Veering on slapstick, Walker’s performance will not go unnoticed.

When his girlfriend Sasha and best friend Elias give hothead Richard a harpoon for his birthday, he wants to try this new toy out right away. So the three of them set out for a day trip on a boat, but suspicion and jealousy soon start to get the upper hand. Before long, the tension has become unbearable. To make matters worse, the boat’s engine fails and then it turns out they left their supplies on shore: a nerve-wracking struggle for survival ensues that spares no one’s secrets – or blood. This post-modern adaptation of a story by Edgar Allan Poe in which three shipwrecked sailors draw lots to see who has to sacrifice himself as a cannibalistic snack, is a bloodthirsty thriller that leaves sufficient space for laughs. It’s painfully obvious from (nautical) miles away that this triangular relationship is not going to end well.

为了获得她的信托基金,艾薇(柯尔)负责向那些在她出生当晚救了她一命的人们献上圣诞祝福。为了帮助她的事业,她聘请了一位英俊的当地律师凯尔(mcgarr)来追踪那些帮助她的人,并试图秘密地了解他们可能想要的东西,同时保持她的匿名性。随着圣诞节的临近,这位女继承人和律师不能不为对方的魅力付出努力。但是随着时间的流逝,她是否能够在平安夜完成使命并实现所有的愿望?伊丽莎白·莱恩出身低微,是莱恩化妆品公司的创始人/首席执行官。35年前,当莱恩化妆品只是一个幻想的时候,单身和贫穷的伊丽莎白在圣诞前夜早退,她在暴风雪中在路上停下来,在布鲁克伍德小镇的一个小城镇的一个主要市民聚集开会。如果不是因为那些人,伊丽莎白和她的女儿在那天晚上出生,艾薇莱恩,可能就活不下去了。伊丽莎白一直试图向伊薇提供她从未有过的成长机会,但伊丽莎白现在觉得,伊薇的特权并没有使她受益,因为每当她放弃了她曾经尝试过的每一次追求时,她总是依赖于她的信任。就这样,在艾薇35岁生日前两周,伊丽莎白把她送去布鲁克伍德,带着那天晚上他们两人和四个人在餐厅的照片。隐姓埋名,艾薇就是去寻找这四个人,给他们最衷心的愿望。伊丽莎白的目标,伊薇看不到,也无法真正理解,是让伊薇对她的生活有一种感恩的感觉,而不是把它视为理所当然。为了激励伊薇,伊丽莎白一直到圣诞节前夕才让她完成这项任务,但没有这样做,伊丽莎白就把伊薇的全部信托捐赠给了她选择的慈善机构。艾薇带着一种愤怒的心情去执行任务,因为她母亲在圣诞节前夕以这种方式颠覆了她的生活。她知道她需要一个律师来处理礼物的法律问题,结果她雇佣了镇上唯一的律师,土著的儿子凯尔纽曼最初不愿意接这个案子,因为它听起来更像是一个宣传特技,但最终决定接受它,更多地了解礼物的性质。在凯尔的帮助下,伊薇了解到找到四个人并不是一件难事,而是说服四个人中的任何一个接受任何一种挑战。不管伊薇是否能完成这个挑战,问题是她是否会像伊丽莎白希望的那样,获得一个新的、更有价值的生活视角。但是说服这四个人接受任何挑战。不管伊薇是否能完成这个挑战,问题是她是否会像伊丽莎白希望的那样,获得一个新的、更有价值的生活视角。但是说服这四个人接受任何挑战。不管伊薇是否能完成这个挑战,问题是她是否会像伊丽莎白希望的那样,获得一个新的、更有价值的生活视角。
