Synopsis
Meet innocent Jim, terrified of girls, and on a reluctant quest to prove his manhood the night before he turns 30. He and his cocky friend Alex think they've hit the jackpot when they meet the beautiful siblings Kitty and Lulu, who seem up for anything on a wild party-fuelled night. But little do they know that the femmes fatales want to make Jim lose much more than just his virginity - Getting laid has never been so bloody difficult.

Benjamin Barfoot is a self taught filmmaker from Devon whose path to this festival started early when as a geeky child he started making stop motion animation films using plasticine. At school and then college he moved into film - creating shorts with the seemingly impossible dream of one day becoming a film director. Straight out of college Ben started his TV career as an editor, cameraman and VFX artist whilst continuing to make his own films "It's hard to find anyone to work on your films in the beginning so you just do it yourself. Before you know it, you're a bit of a one man band". Ben worked at MTV and Vice and most regularly for the BBC - travelling to Israel, Palestine, Egypt and the Calais jungle to make documentaries. ?It?s all storytelling? being his key belief - Ben?s documentary is highly sought after because it brings the flair of fictional film-making to non-fiction. Throughout his career cinema has been firmly his aim. His first short, Signature, a dark animation, was nominated for a broadcast young talent award and his second, Fuse - which he wrote, directed, edited and created the vfx for played at Raindance and Soho Rushes. Then five years ago Benjamin and Danny Morgan began their bromance - Danny a writer / actor whom he started making online comedy shorts with. "They were just scribbles, doodles with someone I found very easy to collaborate with. We share a love for humour and darkness?. Their first outing, 'Where did it all go Ron?' followed a depressed drug-addicted Ron Weasley on the eve of his 29th birthday. Then there was a sketch sequel to Drive called 'Drive Too' and a mockumentry about a failed Hollywood actor that starred Garret Hedlund. These doodles went on to get the attention of producer, Matt Wilkinson and the most recent result of that bromance is Double Date. Read less
