THE SEA, 10min., Canada
Directed by Son Roberts
This experimental short film is a "Jazz Monologue" presented by an elusive oracle. Through rage and reflection, incendiary prose and inspirational poetry, he reminds us of the legacy of lies that define our human journey. And he insists that we embrace the redemptive power of truth, from generation to generation.

A LETTER TO CHINATOWN, 47min., UK
Directed by Alexandra D'Onofrio, Elena Barabantseva
A 21st century coming of age story, we meet Daniel He a decade on from 'British Born Chinese' (2015), no longer living in his family takeaway, but preparing to graduate from Oxford University. Within a matter of weeks, life rapidly propels him from train to train, city to city and headlong into adulthood. 'A Letter To Chinatown' is a poetic, philosophical and emotional journey across time and place, in search of self and belonging.
