In this special programme you will rediscover Romain Gavras’ highly-controversial and yet to be explained music video for ‘Stress’ by Justice, the intensive games of cat and mouse in David O Reilly’s award-winning animation ‘Please Say Something’ and the raw, truthful and tender coming of age tale set in the belly of London Brixton’s “Top Girl”. Featuring short films from the UK, Australia, the USA and beyond, this is a worldwide expedition in short film to unite a global audience.
