Paisley Valentine Walsh

In 2014, at the height of the Ukrainian revolution, a mother loses her son who is killed while protesting in Independence Square. Her attempt to bury him as a hero clashes with a corrupt bureaucratic system, testing her view of Ukraine.

A story about how loss affects a remote Scottish community. Told through the eyes of young Rita, the film follows the community’s youngest members as they experience and process such events. It is a sensitive and realist coming-of-age story that allows us to consider how we are shaped by our exposure to adversity and tenderness at a young age. ‘I Before E’ is a story about hope and the strength of children in the face of life’s hardest moments.

In a series of accounts, two men question why the woman they have both dated left them. With no answers, they eventually find common ground rooted in misogyny.

In an art therapy session, a young veteran confronts his PTSD through mask-making.
