But First, Coffee

This short film follows a tightly wound young professional whose life is built around routine, productivity, and one sacred ritual: coffee. Over the course of an intense workweek, small disruptions begin to fracture his carefully controlled world, blurring the line between discipline and obsession. With sharp visual montages and dark humor, the story explores workplace pressure, ambition, and how easily composure can give way under relentless stress.

Directed by Nick Lokeni, But First, Coffee leans on a strong ensemble — Gabriel Moreno, Simon Edwards, Peter Challis — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about action titles of 2025.
