Next Episode of Random Acts is
unknown.
Heralding the return of late-night lunacy to the Channel 4 schedule, this new series, presented by writer, filmmaker and cult comedian Eric Wareheim, showcases the world's best creative short films from the channel's Random Acts strand. The shorts cover avant-garde visual art, music video, eye-popping animation, contemporary dance, spoken word and all points in between; and Eric guides viewers through them in a slightly unhinged mode somewhere between The Late Show and Gary Shandling. The strand features new shorts by Shia LeBoeuf, Martin Creed, Mica Levi, Beck, Simon Amstell, Reggie Yates, and Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard, but also introduces a new generation of artistic talent. It also includes interviews with some of the films' creators.
Short drama set amid the 1980s, during the job market crisis of the Thatcher era when HIV/AIDS was widespread. Nicholas, a disabled, unemployed mechanic, is unfairly denied the chance of applying for the job he's best suited for, due to his disability. Frustrated, his imagination takes flight on a musical journey of singing and dancing, through disco and ballroom, giving a voice to his silenced, job-seeking peers, and calling for access and change.
