La Croix

Meet the Filmmaker

Fleurot  Joris

Writer/Director
Synopsis
Stuck in traffic jams, in pouring rain, a young 27-year-old graphic designer named Jade receives a call from a client asking her to work on a new project as soon as possible. The young woman's attention is elsewhere, and she is seized by flashes that remind her of an esoteric ritual she recently performed with her friend, Julie. Invited at the time by Julie to come and recharge her batteries in Brittany, Jade had lost all inspiration. She could no longer work and fell into a deep depression. It was then that Jade learned of a powerful but forbidden ritual. The ritual of La Croix, linked to the Breton lighthouse of the same name. Julie tried to stop her, but ended up doing it with her friend. During the session, the desperate artist implores the return of lost inspiration, and has herself branded with the ritual's seal: a circled cross. But for some time now, strange things have been happening to her. Caught up in her thoughts, still at the wheel, she collides with a young woman with a hidden face, also marked with the Cross. While looking for the street name to inform the emergency services, Jade comes across an old woman at her window, staring at her menacingly. Panicked, Jade flees. Little by little, Jade comes to understand what kind of ritual she's really been performing, and what kind of old lady has seen her at the window.

Help, I'm Alien Pregnant

Meet the Filmmaker

Jorda Windsor & Sean Wallace

Writer/Director
Synopsis
Mary feels alien pregnant, the doctor thinks it's probably allergies, only slime will tell.

Mary can feel strange things happening inside her body and thinks they might have something to do with her nervous not-so boyfriend Boo's alien penis. The doctor doesn't take her very seriously until one of her breasts swells up and squirts slime into her eye. Boo runs off rather than showing the doctors his alien junk, and Mary has to hijack an ultrasound session to get a picture of the thing growing inside her, which she uses to confront the growing assembly of dubious physicians. Boo eventually returns, reveals his mutated member, and Mary has to use her new-found voice to save him from becoming a science experiment. Then - in a torrent of phosphorescent slime that gets on everyone - Mary gives birth to hundreds of tiny alien lifeforms. She experiences a brief moment of wonder, then utters the film's final line: '...that's fucking fucked mate.'
