Desperate to make some normal friends, a lonely girl gets ready to attend a party. But she has skeletons in her cupboard, literally. The Girl in the Shed is a darkly comedic fairytale exploring modern themes of anxiety and FOMO.

One of a five-part series inspired by CBE, British environmentalist and writer, Jonathon Porritt, commissioned by Reboot the Future. Screened in 17,000 UK classrooms, attracting over 1 million views on social media and online.

Rise Up is an uplifting short film set in the near future, that tells the story of five young people as they each discover their passion and power. Inspired by environmentalist Jonathon Porritt's predictions for the next five years, we meet a young grower and chef, a determined Norfolk activist, an Indian Tik-Tok influencer, an outspoken politician and a innovative documentary maker. Each character emerges out of the chaos of 2020 and discovers their own unique role in creating a better future. This film is a hope-filled call to action for anyone who believes we have a collective and individual power to make a real difference in the world.
