Every comedian knows that the same joke, delivered the same way, doesn’t guarantee the same response. With his latest special Three-Way, Stuart Laws is letting the audience in on the joke(s) (...as they perform differently between rooms). The special cuts between 3 different locations: Machynlleth, Manchester and Bristol. Viewers buzz between the ‘best bits’ (and a couple of ‘worst bits’) from each show, making one, half-hour, pretty damn funny special.

Follows Salem and Dalya, who fall in love during a dawn raid in a landscape defined by surveillance and military brutality. As their relationship unfolds across marriage, separation, and the hope of parenthood that magically dares to reclaim stolen time, prison becomes the film’s deepest wound. Its violence does not end at the cell door, but continues inside Salem, reshaping his mind, his tenderness, and his place within the life they are trying to build. A story told through the poetic verses of our Hakawatieh (female storyteller), All We Have is an intimate portrait of love under siege and occupation, and of the psychic cost of captivity.

Hiroshi Sugimoto recalls his earliest memory of seeing the sea through the windows of a train, before transforming himself into a “human camera.” With shutters fitted over his eyes, he walks through three minutes of darkness—equivalent, in his temporal metaphor, to some 15,000 years of human history—before opening them for a single second of exposure.
