About this event
Dir Lloyd Eyre-Morgan, Neil Ely/GB 2026/78 mins Nico Mirallegro, Lloyd Eyre-Morgan, Siobhan Finneran In 2027, terminally ill Jordan logs into a webcam chatroom and meets Danny, a stranger who swears it's 2005. As an impossible connection deepens, Chatlines blends mystery, heartbreak, and queer love, featuring standout performances from Siobhan Finneran and Nico Mirallegro. SCENE's closing film sees Manchester LGBTQ+ filmmaking duo Lloyd Eyre-Morgan and Neil Ely return to the festival with their second film in as many years, following up on their instant classic Departures, which was released in UK cinemas back in April. See Chatlines and hear the cast and crew talk about the film at SCENE ahead of it coming to cinemas next year.
