Othering

by Imogen Radwan and Robin L. Finetto

“A young actress arrives at a secluded country house to immerse herself in a challenging role. When she begins having strange dreams, the actress becomes increasingly disturbed by her surroundings. As the demands of the role cause her mental stability to deteriorate, the actress is soon led into a dangerous confrontation with herself.

Created entirely under lockdown with a cast & crew of just two people, Othering is an unsettling psychological horror film, inspired by the stories of Wide Sargasso Sea and Jane Eyre.”

Imogen Radwan is a novelist, screenwriter/director and a recent MA Script Writing graduate. Growing up in the countryside, Imogen owes her creative endeavours to being stuck in the middle of nowhere, with writing being her only means of escape. She has published two novels, Clarice and Violet Minded, and has recently finished writing her first feature film. She has also made a number of short films, with a view to directing more in future.

2 Miles 1 Train

by Holly Trimby

“As a female, I really want my work and any future work I do to be based around women characters and day to day struggles that we go through. 2 Miles 1 Train isn’t just meant to depict an assault but to also show the aftermath and the long road to recovery.”

Born in 1999, Holly Trimby is a second-year English and Media student at Goldsmiths. She attended primary school in London before before emigrating to America for middle and high school. Moving back to London in 2016, she's done shadowing work for BBC Radio and was part of the Fast-forward Programme at OMD Media. After graduation, she hopes to do something media-related in either human rights or gender equality.

“For centuries, you've been recycling the same ideologies and patterns in which you steal the culture and aesthetics of marginalised communities yet keep these communities oppressed rather than uplifting them. The white men in suits at the top do not represent us!!!! Inclusivity needs to be at every level, not just at the bottom in the department stores, we want POC in marketing, in photography, in publishing, in buying, in styling, in suits. However, we don't want you to adopt this mentality for performative reasons because it's so obvious when you do, hence inclusivity is not a trend. Do better.”

Zulfa Armeth is a London based creative passionate about the social effects of post-colonialism implemented and ingrained throughout our day to day lives, as a British Asian Muslim she experiences the identity crisis that is intrinsically attached to colonialism and colourism and attempts to materialise clarity from her conflicts within her art.
