Look Mum, No Hands!
A Daryl & Co and Mimbre co-production
A tender tale of friendship and growing up. It explores a coming-of-age story about two friends testing their own boundaries. Together they explore freedom, taking risks and independence. They see how those things change, depending on who you are.

The Actual Reality Arcade

A life-sized interactive zone inspired by classic arcade games, where you play for real. Dodge barrels and lasers, build Tetris walls, shoot aliens, and become Pac-Man.
