In a small, isolated town, the disappearance of the murderer of a young boy challenges the friendship between the two officers whose task is to find him.

Experiment Three: Broken

Hamish Newcombe

Watch drug-addled friends through the eyes of a kaleidoscope. See coloured shapes dance and flail around. Witness people clubbing, getting beaten up, dancing and being used as human guinea pigs – all these in segments held together by two French teenagers finding themselves waiting for Godot. Experiment Three is another trip into the disturbing and bizarre world of public service announcements, contorted into something confronting and colourful.

Experiment One: Lost

Hamish Newcombe

A boy runs barefoot across a beach into a broken bottle. A woman suffers a panic attack on the street. The mundane life of a fireman is overlaid by the fragmented remnants of a burnt-out house. A deformed man's face fluctuates between broken and unbroken as a traffic accident occurs behind him. Electrical currents run through a boy's burnt legs. Something scurries through multi-coloured woods to the accompaniment of explosions. This is the world of British public information films, remixed and edited to create something new and experimental.
