As the famous saying goes, we are all born to die. However, some people seem to think that they were born to kill, which is how we get the supposedly thriving industry of professional assassins, a vocation that apparently has deep roots in the global political landscape, although very few of us, thankfully, have any…
Glenrothan (2026)
There’s nothing quite like the love between siblings, which is something that anyone who has been raised alongside a brother or sister (or multiple of either or both) will know extremely well. We’re either handed this unfamiliar person, or, in some cases, handed to them depending on who was born first, and told that they…
Bloody Tennis (2026)
How far would you go to achieve absolute perfection? Most people who say that there is no limit to the extent to which they’ll strive to attain something, particularly if it revolves around a specific goal that they feel is within their reach.

The Man in the Funny Suit (1960)

Crime 101 (2026)
Why are we drawn to stories of criminals? Do we crave an understanding of what occurs in a criminal’s mind, or do we simply find these stories entertaining based on the escapism that they offer?

September Afternoon (2026)
There are some feelings that have to be experienced firsthand to fully understand. For me, a core memory from my early childhood was travelling with my family from our home in the big city, driving for hours until we reached the beach, where I spent days covered in saltwater and sand, relishing in the heat…
Resident Evil (2026)

Coward (2026)
The past is certainly a difficult place for anyone to live, which has spurred so many artists to attempt to explore the layered histories of a particular time and place, drawing correlations between the lives of the people in the past and those who are alive today, particularly in finding connections between them in terms…
Heel (2026)
How do you correct bad behaviour? Every parent has a different approach to the art of discipline, some preferring a more gentle, language-based approach, others believing that the only way to curb misbehaviour is through physical means. In both accounts, it is a very contentious topic, despite being very personal and tailored to each individual…
