The Entangled Forest is a film which explores the multifaceted interrelationships between trees and fungi within forest ecologies. Featuring the voice of ecologist Suzanne Simard, and her ground-breaking research into tree and fungi communities, the documentary reflects on the ‘biological neural network’ of forest ecosystems, and how the reciprocal, shared behaviour of mycelium and trees creates a resilient and healthy community of co-dependent species.

Would You Like to Tell Me a Story?
As China abruptly lifts its "zero-COVID" policies, leaving many grappling with the sudden change, we look back at our personal stories during the still-recent lockdown in Shanghai, which lasted for two full months over the spring of 2022.

The intention, while avoiding any direct reference to war, is to tacitly evoke certain universal emotions born out of its consequences: fear, suffering, outrage, vulnerability, abnegation, hope.
The Cave
Two Roomates are sitting in there living space when strange occurrences and characters interrupt there complacency, eventually inspiring them to move beyond the confines of the void.
