The charity ad was a collaboration between Spindle, Engine and No.8, and highlights that domestic abuse has increased hugely throughout Covid lockdowns, whereby ‘for thousands of women and children right now, home is anything but safe’.

Big congratulations to Patrick Fileti for picking up Gold at Kinsale Sharks in both Best Direction and Best Documentary Short, and also getting Silver at the 1.4 Awards, all with his incredible passion project ‘Inferno’.
The film explores the people of Tultepec, Mexico – a town famous for its pyrotechnics industry. Every year, over 300 giant wooden bulls loaded with fireworks are set alight in the town square as an offering; it’s a celebration of explosives for their life-giving energy to a town that lives and dies molten in fire. Plunging head into the flames, Inferno honours the spirit and passion of Tultepec’s community in celebrating life and death.

We are delighted to announce that London-based Scott Carthy has joined our roster for representation in the UK.
Scott’s films sit in a space between heightened, beautiful visuals and raw emotions. He captures humanity at its most intimate, poetic and sometimes brutal. From exploring the political climate in modern-day Londonderry for The Face, to counterculture youth movements in Tokyo, his singular voice pierces through the artifice to find a deep and genuine understanding of his subjects and its people.
