In the Land of the Free
Herman Wallace, Albert Woodfox and Robert King spent over a century between them in solitary confinement. They are known as the Angola 3.
In 2009 Herman and Albert were still in their 6-foot by 9-foot cells after thirty-six years in solitary confinement in Angola, the Louisiana State penitentiary. This feature documentary examines the story of these extraordinary members of the Black Panther party, as they fight the miscarriage of justice against them, struggling for release from solitary and their freedom.
Narrated by Samuel L Jackson, the film was nominated best documentary at the London Evening Standard film awards and was screened across the world as part of the campaign to free the Angola 3.
Stone of Destiny
In 1950, as Scotland fails to establish its own parliament once again, young patriot Ian Hamilton vows to salvage national pride by returning the Stone of Destiny, a symbol of Scottish sovereignty to its rightful place. Trouble is, the stone on which Scottish kings have been crowned for centuries has been housed in Westminster Abbey under watchful English eyes since 1296.
Starring Charlie Cox, Kate Mara, Robert Carlyle, Billy Boyd and Peter Mullen, ‘Stone of Destiny’ opened the Edinburgh Film Festival and closed Toronto.
Scenes of a Sexual Nature
On London’s Hampstead Heath, a variety of couples commune and sort through their assorted romantic dilemmas. Brian (Douglas Hodge) asks his partner, Billy (Ewan McGregor), to cease his constant carousing. Gerry (Hugh Bonneville) and Julia (Gina McKee) struggle through what appears to be a very bad blind date. Meanwhile, Iris (Eileen Atkins) gets a blast from the past when she encounters a man she had a fling with 50 years earlier just as Tom Hardy’s Noel attempts to chat up Sophie Okonedo’s Anna.
A co-production with Director Ed Blum’s Tinpan films, and with an ensemble cast it would be impossible to gather today, ‘Scenes…’ is a funny and touching independent classic.
