'SexLife' by Stefan Georgiou

Having a baby is a beautiful, life-changing experience. But no matter how you love your precious tot, caring for an infant can be a serious obstacle to hooking up. This is the focus of Stefan Georgiou's film SexLife, which was originally written by Kefi Chadwick as a theatrical piece for the Edinburgh Festival.

The 15-minute short centers on Mia (Jemima Rooper) and Dan (Dylan Edwards), a young London couple who haven't had sex since before the birth of their son.

Hand-Painted Bags That Tell Your Story

Most bags today look like they were produced by bored machines in a dimly lit factory. You can walk into any mall and find rows of identical leather (or “leather-like”) things, all claiming to express individuality. Ironically, though, they all look exactly the same. Then there’s Abby Verano . Her bags are not mere accessories; they’re declarations. Each one is hand-painted, touched by an actual human being with an imagination. Abby doesn’t just sell you something to put your wallet and smartphone in; she sells you a story, a vision, a little revolt against the tyranny of sameness. Her tools are simple — brushes, acrylic paint, bags made from pandan leaves, and creativity. No duplicates. No clones. Just one-of-a-kind art pieces you can carry.
