A boyfriend arrives home after a long day at work to discover his girlfriend has been using their bathtub in rather dubious ways. Innocent and darkly humorous, 'Tub.' is an absurd film that questions the nature of sharing (and caring) in long term relationships.

An experimental short film / screen poem adapted from James Joyce. In Ulysses, Molly Bloom never surfaces from her personal Ithaca and the final chapter, Penelope, provides us with an insight into her troubled psyché through a radical, infamously unpunctuated, stream of consciousness. In this short piece and homage to the great literary pioneer, the central character is let out to explore her troubles in the night. But what she finds about herself is perhaps reason for her to remain indoors.
