The Room Next Door is a place where the living and those who have passed on hope to meet - to commune, to connect and to find closure. But who is grieving? Who is left behind? Who is telling the truth? And is everyone who they say they are?

Mei, Bibi and Charlotte return to the UK in search of the foster sisters they left behind after a brutal war.

THE RETURN
Writer & Director Rashida Seriki*
When Rhys goes next door to collect her mail, she discovers her neighbour Lauren has committed a crime. Rhys wants nothing more than to report it and get the hell out of there, but once she knows the circumstances things become a lot less clear cut. Pierced is a black comedy drama mash up that sees unexpected circumstances bring two estranged friends together again.

At the edge of a cemetery a lone barista makes perfect cuppas for restless souls - some from the land of the living and some from the land of the dead. But it’s when the two worlds collide that things really start brewing.

In a remote outpost in the desolate cold, generation after generation of men work together to keep The Great Machine alive. It’s a society led by dogma as old as time itself. As they eagerly await the arrival of the next generation, a shocking discovery threatens their way of life, and all they believe in. Everything. Must. Go.
