About Flatpack 2025: Mark short film + Mark Silcox & Joe Lycett Q&A

Flatpack 2025

The eclectic pop-up film festival returns to MAC.

Joe Lycett's latest 12-minute short is a delightful reminder of his directorial prowess (seriously, how does he juggle TV, art, books, and films?!).

Mark Silcox, in a brilliantly awkward performance, stars as a man desperately seeking a second date with Katherine Parkinson, taking advice from… well, let's just say some questionable sources. Will there be romance? There’s only one way to find out.

We’re pleased to say that Joe and Mark will join us for a Q&A after the film.
