The statue of Edward Colston was tied, pulled from its pedestal, rolled to the harbour, and poetically dumped into the very port used to transport millions of slaves in the 1700’s.

It’s small, close-knit crew has unwittingly become custodians of the largest collection of DVDs and VHS tapes in the UK, and faces a constant struggle to adapt and survive in the age of streaming and downloading. Visit them online, or drop into their store next time you’re in Bristol https://www.20thcenturyflicks.co.uk/ "It’s an ode to the video store experience and a nostalgia trip for anyone who remembers the trailers playing before movies on VHS, or having to rewind the tape before you return it. For many of us, the video store wasn’t just a place to rent movies, but a place to hang out and talk film. It was a vastly more social experience than sitting at home scrolling through thumbnails online. We have an almost endless stream of entertainment available at the click of a button, which makes it all the more amazing that a little independent video store can survive in 2020." - Director, Arthur Cauty Available in 8 / 3 minute durations.

A Vimeo Staff Pick, Vimeo Best of the Month winner, and Vimeo Best of the Year nominee. An exercise in light painting and parallax displacement to create the illusion of 3D (or 2.5D) and motion in a series of still photographs captured after nightfall. Created from lockdown using old photographs, as a reminder of what exists outside my four walls and so others can enjoy the wonders of the night sky from their solitary confines. "Our team sees so many star scape videos and this one is a cut above in so many ways" - Meghan Oretsky, Vimeo Curator "Arthur Galloway Cauty is a dab hand at capturing moonlight magic. His latest film of astrophotography and light painting is so beguiling, it’s better than communing with a coyote for an almost spiritual calm." - D&C Film "I can’t even imagine the time and skill it took to put together and create something this beautiful" - The Loop "The results are stunning. Truly beautiful stuff" - AdventureBlog.net "This ode to the night sky will make you want to drop everything and go stargazing" - Mountain Life Photographed at the following locations: Arches National Park, Utah Capitol Reef National Park, Utah Joshua Tree National Park, California Llanthony Priory, Brecon Beacons National Park, Wales Dunraven Bay, South Wales Dartmoor National Park, England

90 second documentary short premiering at Encounters Film Festival 2019. Daryl Hembrough suffers from Pfeiffer Syndrome, a rare genetic disorder preventing the skull from growing normally and affecting the shape of the head and face. He sits down to discuss the reactions he gets from people, not to his appearance but to his self deprecating form of stand-up comedy. "The idea was to make a point about the way we judge or make assumptions about others. The challenge was to have Daryl speak about the responses to his comedy in an ambiguous way, so that as a viewer you assume he’s talking about reactions to his appearance, only to flip that on its head. The 90 second format from Depict! brought another challenge - an important exercise in editing, whittling it down to the bare bones, cutting out anything that wasn’t absolutely critical to the story." - Arthur Cauty Daryl chats more about Pfeiffer Syndrome here: https://vimeo.com/391307607 Screenings: Encounters Film Festival, September 2019 (Premiere) Amsterdam Independent Film Festival, October 2019 British Shorts, Berlin January 2020
