Quintinshill
by David Paine
Written by local playwright, Dave Paine, Quintinshill is a re-imagining of what happened in a signal box in 1915 just before the worst rail crash in British history. The signal box was at Quintinshill just north of the Scottish/English border.
Mint Tea In Marrakesh
by Vanessa Cutts
Mint Tea in Marrakesh isn’t a feature-length film, it’s a holiday snapshot. Just one moment in a foreign place with two guys travelling together, who hook up with 2 backpackers and recount an experience with a storyteller and find themselves learning about life, questioning what they are going to do next and why.
Goldfish Girl
by Peter Souter
Ally is hospitalised in a rehabilitation centre after a massive embolism induced by extreme stress - possibly PTSD.
She has virtually no memory - hence 'Goldfish Girl'.
Joe visits Ally every day to try to aid the recovery of her memory. During these visits their backstory, and the events leading to her condition, become apparent.
