LOVE SARAH is an original story about three generations of women brought together following the death of Sarah Curachi, an acclaimed baker on the cusp of fame, who is tragically killed in a cycling accident on the eve of receiving the keys to her first solo bakery. Clarissa, her 18-year-old daughter, is an aspiring dancer and estranged from her Grandmother Mimi, Sarah’s Mother. Meanwhile Isabella, Sarah’s business partner, struggles to pay the rent on an empty space where the bakery was to be opened on Golborne Road, a cultural diverse area of Notting Hill. After Isabella finds herself legally unable to terminate the commercial lease on the bakery, Clarissa quits dancing and suggests they open it together in memory of her mother. However, with little financial resources to do so, Clarissa finds herself on her Grandmother Mimi’s doorstep – initially looking for a bed, but ultimately looking for a cheque book: Mimi has the money that can help them open the bakery. Unsure at first, Mimi is eventually won round. However when Sarah’s ex boyfriend Matthew, a Michelin-starred star chef turns up, Mimi insists – against Isabella’s advice – that he take the helm: it’s the only sure fire way to ensure success.

ROSIE tells the story of a mother trying to protect her family after their landlord sells their rented home and they become homeless. Over 36 hours, Rosie and her partner John Paul strive to find somewhere to stay while shielding their young family from the reality of the situation around them. ROSIE examines how even in times of crises; the love and strength of a family can endure.
In ROSIE, award-winning Irish novelist Roddy Doyle brings his signature brand of warmth and authenticity to a modern story of a Dublin family who have found themselves with nowhere left to go. Hailed as the most important Irish film of the year, ROSIE follows a young mother (Sarah Greene) as she searches to find a room for the night for her family – a tense race against time as the hours count down and their options run out. Set over 36 hours, ROSIE tracks a normal family faced with impossible choices and exposes just how easy it is to slip through the cracks.
