Texas Premiere - Partnered With K9 Service With A Twist!Hustle and Run is a joyful, exhilarating underdog story from an unexpected corner of British sport. The film follows maverick captain Jeannette and her team, the Aces - a ragtag band of women from the Medway towns in Kent - competing in the fast and furriest world of Flyball... Also known as “the F1 of dog sports”… and “a posh game of fetch.” In a sport dominated for decades by border collies and conventional thinking, this unfancied, backwater team gambles on Hustle - a tiny, mercurial whippet considered too untrainable for the sport. From that moment everything changes. What unfolds is an intimate, uplifting story of community, belief and overlooked talent, as they chase their dream all the way to Flyball’s greatest stage: Crufts.  Directors Jonny Madderson and Jono Stevens are internationally award-winning filmmakers and co-founders of JustSo, a certified B Corp. Through their company they make documentaries and series for global organizations including Channel 4, Red Bull, Netflix, Disney, LEGO, and the Olympics. Pioneers in digital storytelling, their breakout project was the Black Cab Sessions, the hit YouTube music series that redefined intimate live performance for the online era. They champion upbeat, human storytelling with a soft spot for tales of underdogs and overlooked potential. They both brought dogs into their lives around the same time - Jonny a whippet, Jono a whippet-cross - and that shared, heart-melting (and slightly bonkers) love sparked the idea for Hustle and Run.

Texas Premiere! A young dissociated mother dealing with loss, grief, and a large furry dog. World premiere set for the Oscar-qualifying HollyShorts. 2025. Kerry Frances is an actress best known from KNIVES OUT, currently on Poker Face, and in the highly anticipated upcoming WAKE UP DEAD MAN. She is mentored on and off set by Oscar nominated writer and director Rian Johnson, and represented by Zero Gravity Management. MAMA MAMA is her first film, which she wrote, directed, starred in, and produced. Director Statement MAMA MAMA came to me after two life changing experiences within two weeks: filming my first TV show with many women in leadership roles, who took time to pour into me, and losing my dog and best friend, Henry Bear. I found myself wondering what if it had been a human son I'd lost, while contemplating women's roles and identities in the industry and society, and suddenly realizing I could do anything I wanted. MAMA MAMA has changed my entire life, and flung open doors within the industry, powerfully affecting producers, showrunners, actors, directors, and more, who resonate with the story. I can't wait to keep making films, TV, and theatre. Thanks for taking the time to watch and consider my short.
