After the Flood: the Church, Slavery & Reconciliation, unearths the ideas that propped-up the Transatlantic Slave Trade, for hundreds of years, and how we might undo their impact. The film was commissioned by UK Charity, The Movement for Justice and Reconciliation (MJR). The film reveals the lesser-known story of how the 18th-century Church came to justify the enslavement of Africans, its legacies and what it means for reconciliation today.

Through the eyes of a group of people convinced that they knew the date for the end of the world, Right Between Your Ears explores how people believe, how we turn beliefs into certainties, and mistake them for the truth. A stock trader with a young family, a philosophy student about to graduate and a retail manager who became so convinced she quit her job of 18 years. As they face the consequences of their conviction, Right Between Your Ears crosses the boundaries between belief, psychology and neuroscience to examine how we can become convinced we're right, even when we're wrong. “A fun and warm-hearted look at a community of doomsayers as they face the day of judgment, it ends up saying a great deal about how we all think.” - Louis Theroux (documentary filmmaker)
