A Birmingham City University film team is exploring two intimate stories. One follows a former chess champion who replays the decisive game that began his decline, chasing the moment his life changed. The other centres on a young woman whose inner self begs for help as she is pulled deeper into her phone and away from real connection. Both ideas foreground character, emotion and visual storytelling
This is a collaborative student set offering clear screen time, credits and a supportive crew for actors building experience
