Night Two:
Domestic Oxymoron - written and directed by Ingrid-Anamaria Dorgan, assistant directed by Katie Watson
'Domestic Oxymoron is about leaving home at sixteen and learning to belong elsewhere. Returning to the day that changed everything, our protagonist finds herself caught between her younger and older selves, each holding a different version of the past. Haunted by homesickness for a place that no longer exists as she remembers it, she confronts the contradictions of growing up: what does it mean to be brave enough to leave?'
Content Warnings: Family separation, migration and displacement;Anxiety, fear, and loneliness; Pandemic isolation; Brief references to physical harm and vivid imagery related to the heart and blood’
M4DD13 - written and directed by Bridget Blanchard, co-directed by Abbie Maclean
In the not-so-distant future, Bernie Coleman lives day after repetitive day in a mental hospital with his AI robot nurse, Madison. In a desperate attempt to cling to the beautiful, non-artificial world he once knew, Bernie consumes the only piece of humanity he has left: himself.
Content warnings: Medical setting, psychosis, autocannibalism, suicide, death, and blood
Slumber - written and directed Adam McIntosh, co-directed by Mary Langan
Two sleepovers. Four years apart. One twisted mystery… Slumber follows four teenage girls in the late 2000s whose party games quickly turn into mind games where secrets and deceits are revealed.
Content warnings: grief, references to death, drinking, strong language, bullying, paranormal activity, respiratory distress, flashing lights, loud noises
