Synopsis
Forrest Gump
A man with a low IQ has accomplished great things in his life and been present during significant historic events—in each case, far exceeding what anyone imagined he could do. But despite all he has achieved, his one true love eludes him.
The Incomer
On an Orkney isle, two siblings survive by hunting seabirds, retelling the stories of their ancestors, and defending the isle from dreaded "incomers". Their world is upended with the arrival of an awkward council worker who has come to uproot them from their homeland.
