Reflections 1962

A sophisticated piece of filmmaking, this 1962 short is built around a simple device: a young woman, Andrea (Andrea Adams), falls asleep on a train, has a dream of finding and entering an old house in the country with a man (Ron Dix) who describes the experience in voiceover in a matter-of-fact tone, and then is shaken awake in her seat; once she disembarks, the events of the dream are replayed shot for shot, and she narrates her movements in voiceover. In the final sequence, Andrea repeats her dreamed gesture of staring unhappily into a bedroom looking glass, only this time smashes it, glancing back at her splintered reflection as she is embraced by her lover. Year of release: 1962 Director: Ludwik Dutkiewicz Producer: Ian Davidson Starring: Andrea Adams, Ron Dix

Notice of Rejection 2022

The protagonist in Notice of Rejection appears to be unmoved by historical barbarism and societal injustice -- until Rejection hits home -- then it's a different story. Turning to social media, no one "likes", nor do they follow or even comment on his predicament. He calls the authorities, to no avail. Now completely obsessed, he becomes an activist and goes looking for acknowledgment, only to have doors slammed in his face. Even a public protest fails to elicit a whisper of sympathy; it's time to let go, so he buries his passion. Having shed the burden, our protagonist turns a new leaf - he decides to see if rejection can be turned around, made benevolent, and perhaps even grow into something that changes his life.
