Dive into 90 minutes of heart-pounding fun and an unforgettable group experience at Prison Island London! This interactive adventure combines the excitement of escape rooms with a series of physical and mental challenges. Instead of escaping from one room, teams of 2 to 5 players move through a variety of themed challenge cells, each testing different skills — from agility and coordination to logic and teamwork — as you race against the clock to earn points. There are 31 unique cells inside the prison, but you won't have time to complete them all in one visit. The goal is to tackle as many as you can and score the highest points before time runs out — every team's route and strategy will be different! Are you ready to take on the challenge? Let's find out… Get your tickets today for Prison Island London!Black Friday

We started the UK Student Film Festival in order to showcase young and/or aspiring filmmakers taking their first steps in the world of short film creation and are now on our sixth edition. Our festival screens the most innovative new films from film students around the world in all different genres including drama, comedy, documentary, experimental, horror, animation and more. All we require is that films are made with conviction, a quest for originality and a will to entertain and involve an audience. Welcome to our brilliant contributors to this year’s far-reaching festival. Films from every corner of the planet made by our most talented up and coming filmmakers. See you there! Short synopses of the fantastic films we’ll be showcasing….. A hamster king is a victim of his own demise when he refuses to share his excessive wealth with the rest of his kingdom. In a world overwhelmed by visual noise, advertisements saturate every corner of life—from towering billboards to intrusive pop-ups on digital screens. They blur the lines between content and commerce, subtly shaping desires and identities. A waiter and his client get into an absurd discussion in a situation that can change their lives forever. Natives of the Safari, Maasai tribes live on their cattle. In a traditional Maasai family, a man can have many wives. His wealth is measured by the number of cattle, wives, and children he owns. The surrounding world is changing, and so is the Maasai world. In the future, citizens are required to complete the 'Transfer' into 'AI’ in order to become a legal citizen. The film follows a young film director who is determined to shoot her student film, but faces a series of comedic disasters: her car breaks down, the cameraman loses memory cards, one of the main actors doesn’t show up and the situation is further complicated when her jealous boyfriend shows up on set, bringing additional tension and chaos. The morning visit from a downstairs neighbour and his atypical request, take the main character on a journey down the memory lane of a lost relationship.
