Screenings:

18.15 – 18.30
I AND I
Directed by Samona Olanipekun

A portrayal of contemporary male identity, which peels back the layers of self. A young man spends a day preparing for his 30th birthday while confronted by his alter ego.

18.45 – 19.00
ADEBOWALE   
Directed by El Anthony and Claire Gordon-Webster 

We follow Anthony, a 40-something Black-British actor, through his daily routine. Morning coffee, workout, audition, texts, calls. Beneath every moment, racial microaggressions sting and accumulate, each one swallowed in silence. When he instinctively crosses the street to avoid making a white woman uncomfortable, something inside him snaps. The next day repeats: coffee, workout, audition.. but this time, watching himself back, Anthony realises he's vanished - invisible, erased. In a surreal, formless state, he takes back the only thing that's his: his full name. "Anthony Adebowale." A reclamation of self, slowly pulling him back into being.


19.45- 20.00
CAB RIDE
Directed by Ola Jones and Femi Tiwo

Set in the streets of south London, this naturalistic comedy drama sees two queer lovers bolt out of a house party, into a waiting cab where they have one eventful journey to figure out whether they are truly a match...

Or maybe these dating apps are nothing but admin, admin, admin?
