Show Me Shorts 2025: The Sampler (Captioned)

Highlight short films from the festival are collected in this tasty package. Inspiring and thoughtful stories include a boxing nun, an AI robot, a dedicated teacher and a Palestinian man trying to return home. Much loved stars Hugh Bonneville, Marlon Williams, Thomas Sainsbury and Alison Bruce make an appearance. We have some fun with an out-of-his-depth dad at a twirling competition and a maniacal ice-cream seller on the beach.

The 10th & 19th October screenings of THE SAMPLER are without captions. The 15th October screening is fully captioned.
