Sophie's Map is a short film about a young boy named Jamie, who goes on an adventure with his older sister Sophie one last time. They venture on to their favourite places, fighting monsters and avoiding lava and he finds precious artefacts along the way in the same way his idol Indiana Jones would. The strength of a child’s imagination is a great superpower, taking Jamie on big adventures like this one, but also forcing Jamie to comprehend his own feelings and understand what it means to let go of someone forever.

Every morning Amelia wakes up in a room she cannot remember, in the mirror is an unfamiliar face that follows her every move, and where reality feels like a dream she struggles to keep her mind and body in time with each other. After living through a traumatic childhood and watching her parents slowly fall out of love, she experiences life in a dissociative state where time wastes away and nothing feels real. With the help of her father and best friend Sam, Amelia battles to connect with life again as she strives to start her dream career in musical theatre but will her overbearing mother win the fight again and convince her to change her mind?

Waiting For Tomorrow is a documentary about life, death and social stigma. We follow Kamaruddin, an illegal parking attendant (penjaga kereta) who has serious medical conditions – cataracts in one eye, a limp in his leg, and leaking wound on his torso from a botched appendix surgery.
To the locals, Kamaruddin is just the resident penjaga kereta who directs traffic and allocates parking spaces at Jalan Foo Choo Choon. Little do they know, Kamaruddin left his family years ago, leaving him homeless on the streets. This documentary examines Kamaruddin, the community around him and how he perceives life and death.

Lights up in Washington Heights up at the break of day as the UWSU Musical Theatre Society presents our end of the year spring musical, In The Heights!
Join us for a night as we tell the universal story of a vibrant community in New York’s Washington Heights neighborhood – a place where the coffee from the corner bodega is light and sweet, the windows are always open and the breeze carries the rhythm of three generations of music.
It’s a community on the brink of change, full of hopes, dreams and pressures, where the biggest struggles can be deciding which traditions you take with you, and which ones you leave behind. It'll be a night full of songs and dances, of laughter and tears, and of family and home.
Memorialise Me is an installation tackling the idea of digitisational memorials with technology and social media moving forward with death in mind. Facebook memorialises accounts, social media services to help make posts - post death. This art installation explores the visualisation of a digitised database of memorials, all online, with people talking about how they’d like to be remembered after their deaths.

Colours of Sound is a short documentary aiming to highlight the individuality of Synaesthesia. Over the course of two weeks, we provided two London-based Synaesthete artists with the same musical composition and gave them the opportunity to express their synaesthesia-induced thoughts. Supplying them each with a blank canvas and a selection of acrylic paints, they opened our eyes to another reality of seeing.
Special thanks to our Synaesthete artists Timothy Layden and Millie Bushell
