Upside Town
Narrative Short Film
2015, UK
A short comedy that aims to expose sexism and speciesism in our society with a light tone.
For some people everyday life revolves around daily routines that we have become a custom to over time. These are social codes. Even though we're know in the 20th century these so called 'rules of conduct' are slowly breaking apart however they still exist to some extent. Ask yourself, What would life be like if for one day the social codes and 'rules' of behaviour suddenly got inverted? Would we still follow this rules unquestionably or would things start to change. For Barney this question becomes reality and this film is going to explore the numerous possibilities.

Doors
Expressionist Short Film
2014, Italy
Doors is an experimental abstract short piece, a metaphor for the path of life, the struggles that any young person faces, the hard choices and the big question: how to choose the right path to success?
With an extremely small crew and very low budget, Doors has unusual visual, psychological use of colour and a weird unnatural soundscape.
