​A FULL HOUSE OF EMPTY ROOMS (2020)
SYNOPSIS:
​Chris Wade's fourth art film is a surreal black comedy. One cold autumn, a father and son decided to go to sleep, on perfectly aligned, opposing sofas, to enter the world of their dreams and leave behind what people refereed to as reality. The important question was, would they wish to return from their slumber? Or would they prefer to stay in their dream state?
Featuring Chris Wade, Andy Wade, Shawn Dimery and Celia Ford Drummond, singer of legendary folk band Trees and voice of British Rail.

OFFICIAL SELECTION:
SYDNEY WORLD FILM FESTIVAL

"Love your film; beautiful to look at, consistent in mood, emotional, visually sophisticated, nicely acted. It is its own thing, a clear filmmaker at work. It reminds me of films from the 50’s in New York. Well done my friend."
 - Director James Frawley, Muppet Movie, Ghost Whisperer

"Really interesting stuff!"
- Anthony Frewin, assistant to Stanley Kubrick

​SEVEN DAYS IN NEVER (2017)
https://sevendaysinnever.weebly.com/
​
 SYNOPSIS:
"Have you ever spent Seven Days in Never?"
 After his debut feature The Apple Picker (2017) was selected for the Sydney World Film Festival, Chris Wade began filming footage for its follow up. In between writing and music projects, Wade assembled SEVEN DAYS IN NEVER, a companion film to The Apple Picker which takes you inside a young man's life and mind for one week. Featuring the voice of Nigel Planer, the film explores the world of the Never Man (played by Chris),  his day to day existence, his dreams, his fears and his nightmares.
   With music by Chris (recorded especially for the film, alongside past Dodson and Fogg tracks), it was filmed over the period of April to November 2017, in Malaga, Spain, Palma City on the Balearic Islands, as well as across England and Scotland. It's a psychedelic odyssey, a road trip for the mind. So turn off the lights, switch off the outside world and spend Seven Days in Never...
