Radio Parade of 1935
One of the first screen outings for Will Hay. Hay plays the Director General of the National Broadcasting Group (NBG) who hides away in his office unaware that the general feeling about his programming is that it is too high-brow and the public are not happy. However, when he discovers this he decides to take action and promotes Jimmy, his Head of the Complaints Department, to Programme Director. Jimmy decides that a series of variety spectaculars are what the public want and sets about hiring the acts. But obstacles are put in his way and he discovers that the NBG has its own cluster of wannabe variety stars.
Push To Enter
Amidst mounting pressures, a food deliverer (Laith Nakli) has his morality tested when he finds a pair of keys left on the outside of a customer's door, culminating in a night of fear and self-discovery.
Meanwhile
Violeta asks Mono for "a little time" to decide what to do with her partner. Eva arrives in the city ready to do anything to change her life. Meanwhile is the story of "a time," of that time that passes while several stories intertwine in a dizzying puzzle that never quite fits together. A moving description of stories that are woven together by chance, an ensemble account of the uncertainty, despair, boredom, love, and heartbreak that weave urban relationships, a dramatic comedy about the bonds that make up life in the city.
The Lost Chick
A chicken has hatched seven chicks. She locates six of them, but the other, Eggbert, is missing.
