Salta (Salta Bekturova) and Iva (Iva Litova), two Albanian young women cycle from Albania to England hoping to make people aware that Jesus is coming back.  After a long bike ride through hills and tunnels helped by expletive-filled prayers and determination, they find a target. Green-haired Azzees (Azzees Minot) assures the two girls that they are not seeing Jesus’ face on last week’s burnt toast, the soles of well-worn ballet flats, stains on the floor and a dirty bath rim. Despite this, she agrees to let them go ahead with the exorcism of her favourite promiscuous turtle, not realising that the devil is actually closer to home. Meanwhile religion-seeker Sarah’s (Sarah Gulbransen) Looking Good for Jesus kit has apparently added to her healthy glow, but she might think about taking a mower to the back garden.

This film is like one of those games where you pull out random words to create a story. A jumble of curious ideas –  Hackney, Jesus, Albania, green wig, turtle. Try it yourself and see what you come up with…

With an interest in multi-cultural teen subcultures/tribes and a mix of fiction and documentary, writer-director-composer Alex Z Taylor’s debut feature film ‘Spaceship’, the story of a teenager who fakes her own alien abduction, is currently screening around the country. Named a UK Star of Tomorrow by Screen International in 2013, Taylor “wants to make films which give people the courage to love themselves in all their weirdness”. Winning a Special Jury Prize at SXSW 2010 and five other international awards with his first short film Kids Might Fly, all of Alex Taylor’s work has premiered at the BFI London Film Festival and been nominated and won various awards. He also performs as Nawixela: an improvised duo playing guitar, saxophone, a toy record player, and cheap Casios.
