Contrasting artistic visions, misplaced confidence and blatant ignorance collide on the backdrop of an increasingly fragile and divided world. In August 2018, seven months before the UK is due to leave the EU, two stubborn Scottish filmmakers struggle to make a short film together in the Austrian Alps. Can they find common ground, or will they have to go their separate ways?

- The Closure, 30'
This story is framed about family links. Using the images recorded on a cruise ship made by his parents, the author invokes a dystopian society where the problems of collective coexistence are solved by an algorithm and where the prohibition of abortion is compensated by a law that allows parents to prosecute their children if, at the age of 30, they have not fulfilled the expectations placed on them.

- Lasting Marks, 14'29"
The story of sixteen men put on trial for sadomasochism in the dying days of Thatcher's Britain was told by the police, the prosecution and the tabloid press — but not by those in the dock.
Authors:
- Surface Dissected, 16'02"
A movie about self-determination and responsibilities, about prejudices, the Arabic parallel society in Germany, about trust and fears – and a strong love. Maria's and Salim's relationship is determined by a delicate balance. They live in Berlin; Maria works as a belly dancer; Salim's origins are in Syria and thus in a society which perceives belly dancing as dishonourable. While he waits for her, at night, in his car, Maria dances in the clubs for other men.
Authors:
- The Man Who Looked Beyond The Horizon, 28'23"
