the BIRDS EYE VIEW 3 films:
BETWEEN THE WARS
Director: Emily Woof
Running time - 12min
Now keen to step behind the camera after a successful career in acting, this is Emily's directorial debut, a poignant and involving drama that charts the relationship between an asylum
seeker and a war veteran living on the same council estate in London.
LEFT OR RIGHT FOR LOVE?
Director: Magali Charrier
Choreographer: Maria Lloyd
Running time - 5 min
A busy girl in a white world, puzzled dreams and hectic thoughts - Highly original and imaginative, this is a brilliant example of that exciting new genre: dance film.
I EXPECT JOAN FEELS THE SAME
Director: Sophie Williams, Bournemouth University
Running time - 3 min
A surprisingly powerful documentary of love and loss told by 2 war
widows. Intimate, honest, low-gloss storytelling from our youngest
contributor.
NOT WAVING
Director: Jane Rogoyska
Running time - 4 min
A beautiful, lyrical film, based on a poem by Stevie Smith, disturbing the apparent idyll of a family day by the sea. Concise, engaging and brilliantly realised.
HYSTERIA
Director: Alys Hawkins, RCA
Running time - 2 min
Graphic, shocking and darkly comic, this animated documentary is about a shocking aspect of mental health care and cliterodectomy in Victorian Britain. Very short, very sharp, and
beautifully drawn.
DEEP DOWN
Director: Christin Cockerton
Running time - 11 min
Black comedy of a mother-daughter fight to the death, starring the wonderful Helen McCrory and Sylvia Syms. Winner of Gold Remi for Best Original Short Film at Worldfest Houston, this
is a highly accomplished and enjoyable production.
