The wicked Blue Meanies take over Pepperland, eliminating all color and music. As the only survivor, the Lord Admiral escapes in the yellow submarine and journeys to Liverpool to enlist the help of the Beatles.

About a personal experience of claustrophobia and how to deal with it. When you can't have another cup of coffee or another brandy because you just gotta get on the plane. And there you are. And suddenly there's a flight attendant saying "good morning".

About Women and the Law, made by four different animation directors, but commissioned as one project by Channel 4 in the UK, looks at the status of women in the eyes of the Law. Roche combines 3 brief gems on equal pay, rape, and the myth of the virgin & the whore.

A distinctive animated short inspired by Irish folk tales, made with assistance from the BFI Production Board. Set “long ago when men lived in caves” this tells the tale of Ulick, a would-be king, banished from his realm for his violent and unholy deeds and forced to wander through Ireland and the furthest reaches of his own mind. Inspired by Irish folk tales, the story emerged from director and animator Gillian Lacey’s “train of thought” after reading Flann O’Brien’s "At Swim-Two Birds".

Made as one of a four part series exploring different aspects of women and the law, on which all the women animators involved researched and worked as a group, before then making individual films, each quite different in content, tone and style. Based on a real case and devised as a 'melodrama' set in a Crown Court.
