Event Details

Giornate degli Autori were born in 2004, as an independent event on the fringes of the Venice Film Festival, modeled on the prestigious 船irectors’ Fortnight’ of the Cannes Festival and promoted by the associations of Italian film directors and authors (Anac and 100autori).

The aim of the event is to draw attention to high quality cinema, without any kind of restriction, with special care for innovation, research, originality and independence. These are all features of the 12 films selected as well as being reflected in the special events held during the Days in the Villa degli Autori.
Ever since the first edition, the Days have come to represent a real alternative to the Festival’s official areas and an ideal and informal place for authors, producers, distributors and journalists to meet and discuss their ideas in an informal environment.

The 11 films selected from all over the world, in addition to other events and any special screenings, are screened in the theatres provided by the Venice Film Festival.

Event Details

Photographer, costume designer, documenter of a city in wartime, art director, cartoonist, columnist, writer of acerbic diary entries: Cecil Beaton did all this and more. A veritable 20th century Renaissance man, the Briton made his name as a trendsetter and artist who kept his finger on the pulse of English and American society for over a half-century. Welles to Jagger, Garbo to the Queen Mother: seemingly every person who was someone in English-speaking culture passed in front of Beaton’s camera at one point or another, all captured in an immediately striking style that reads as both stark and ornate.

Lisa Immordino Vreeland’s documentary follows Beaton’s career in more-or-less chronological order, mixing the personal and societal dimensions in a life that demanded such treatment. Using a deft blend of archival footage, photographs, conversations with Beaton, interviews with friends and sundry figures, and lengthy extracts from Beaton’s diaries (read by Rupert Everett), Love, Cecil emerges as a faithful document of an indefatigable, innovative personality: one who, above all, recognized the power of images.

Event Details

Cielo is a cinematic reverie on the crazy beauty of the night sky, as experienced in the Atacama Desert, Chile, one of the best places on our planet to explore and contemplate its splendor. Director Alison McAlpine’s sublime nonfiction film drifts between science and spirituality, the arid land, desert shores, and lush galaxies, expanding the limits of our earthling imaginations. Planet Hunters in the Atacama’s astronomical observatories and the desert dwellers who work the land and sea share their evocative visions of the stars and planets, their mythic stories and existential queries with remarkable openness and a contagious sense of wonder. A love poem for the night sky, Cielo transports us to a space, quiet and calm, within which we can ponder the infinite and unknown.

Event Details

Madeline (newcomer Helena Howard) has become an integral part of a prestigious physical theater troupe. When the workshop’s ambitious director (Molly Parker) pushes the teenager to weave her rich interior world and troubled history with her mother (Miranda July) into their collective art, the lines between performance and reality begin to blur. The resulting battle between imagination and appropriation rips out of the rehearsal space and through all three women’s lives.

Writer/director Josephine Decker utilizes a welcome expressionistic approach that imbues her subjects with a vibrant sense of urgency. Anchored by a virtuoso performance from newcomer Helena Howard, whose powerful screen presence commands attention, Decker’s film displays a rare sensitivity for capturing the messy struggles of discovering a sense of one’s self that defies easy narrative categorization. — Oscilloscope Labs

Event Details

As the genre most inextricably linked to America, the Western has always been malleable enough to be reconfigured and revised to reflect the current moment and its values, with each generation interpreting the past through its own lens. Traditionally set during the Civil War era, both U.S.- and internationally-made Westerns have centered on a country in transformation, as the railroad extended west and frontier towns grew into cities. To many the Western is seen as a typically masculine genre bringing to mind iconic images of John Wayne and Monument Valley, but while sublime desert landscapes coupled with the machismo of the great American cowboy are important elements of the genre, the West was not won by men alone.

Women have always been present in the genre as supporting figures: wives, sisters, preachers’ daughters, teachers, prostitutes, etc. But this series highlights Westerns that focus on a female protagonist, foregrounding the importance of women both to the Western genre and to the history of the American West itself. Spanning the early days of cinema all the way to the 21^stcentury, and encompassing a number of films written and directed by women, this series aims to construct a narrative indicating the varied roles women played in shaping this country and more broadly the ways that the film industry has told stories of our western foremothers: the sharpshooters, hustlers, entrepreneurs, bandits, and all-around resilient women who worked as hard as men to maintain normalcy amid an inhospitable landscape.

6:00pm Meek's Cutoff preceded by The Frontier Experience6:00pm - 8:10pmMEEK’S CUTOFF by Kelly Reichardt. Oregon, 1845. Three pioneer families in covered wagons are making the treacherous journey west led by Stephen Meek when they realize he no longer knows the way. Is Meek incompetent, or is this sabotage? That question soon becomes the least of their worries as their water supplies dwindle and a Native American man is discovered following them, eventually to be taken prisoner. Isolated from the men’s deliberations, the three women (Shirley Henderson, Michelle Williams, and Zoe Kazan) are tasked not only with maintaining a sense of normality in the face of a harrowing trip, but also transporting a certain form of civilization, as they move precious heirlooms across the country. The first (and to date, only) period piece in Reichardt’s filmography, MEEK’S CUTOFF finds her every bit as comfortable working in this mode. Preceded by: Barbara Loden THE FRONTIER EXPERIENCE (1975, 25 min, 16mm) Made for an educational film distributor, Barbara Loden’s under-acknowledged short film was her first directorial effort following her masterpiece, WANDA, and was written by HESTER STREET and CROSSING DELANCEY director Joan Micklin Silver. Based on women’s diaries from the period, it features Loden herself as Delilah Fowler, who struggles to survive and provide for her children during their first year as settlers in the Kansas prairie.

9:00pm The Good Time Girls9:00pm - 10:40pmTHE GOOD TIME GIRLS by Courtney Hoffman. (2017, 15 min, digital. With Laura Dern, Garret Dillahunt, and Alia Shawkat.) Costume designer Courtney Hoffman’s first directorial effort finds three women taking revenge on the men who have ruined their lives. Laura Dern (literally wearing Channing Tatum’s pants from THE HATEFUL EIGHT), Garret Dillahunt, and Alia Shawkat star. Followed by Gordon Parks Jr's Thomasine & Bushrod.
September 7, 2018
9:15pm The Ballad of Little Jo9:15pm - 11:16pmThe Ballad of Little Jo directed by Maggie Greenwald. Abandoned by her family as an unwed mother and sold as a prostitute to soldiers by a traveling salesman, Josephine Monaghan (Suzy Amis) decides to live as a man. As “Jo,” she settles in the shabby mining town of Ruby City and becomes a frontiersman. She learns to shoot, raise and sheer sheep, and eventually earns enough money to buy property and a herd of her own. When a cattle company starts buying land – and killing homesteaders that stand in their way – she is forced to consider what she has made of her life as a man, all unthinkable as a society woman. Increasingly relevant today, the film can be seen, in the words of the New York Times’s Stephen Holden, as “an allegorical critique of sex and power and men’s-club values in America.”
September 8, 2018
4:45pm Bullet's for Breakfast4:45pm - 6:05pmIn Holly Fisher’s experimental, feminist feature, she explores ideas of the Western while visually constructing a story about gender relations. Interweaving and layering images from Ford’s MY DARLING CLEMENTINE (from a silent Super-8mm print she discovered in a NYC hardware store), she uses optical printing, postcards of Renaissance paintings of women, footage of women working in a Maine herring factory, feminist poetry, and excerpts from a pulp-Western author’s autobiography, in an attempt to, in her words, “understand how to make a structure that puts women as the subject, not the object.” She has further observed, “It’s a Western filtered through a post-feminist movement sensibility…It shows what I think is happening in my film, which is that history is relative to who is writing it and when.”

6:45pm The Belle Starr Story6:45pm - 8:15pmTHE BELLE STARR STORY by Lina Wertmüller & Piero Cristofani. Print courtesy of the Swedish Film Institute. With Elsa Martinelli. One of the few Spaghetti Westerns starring – and possibly the only one directed by – a woman (Wertmüller worked under the pseudonym “Nathan Wich” after replacing Cristofani), the film is inspired by the notorious American outlaw Belle Starr, played by Elsa Martinelli. Starr was known to ride sidesaddle wearing a black velvet riding habit and feathered hat. Martinelli’s incarnation is almost never seen out of her black leather pants and jacket, but she stays true to Starr’s reputation as a sharpshooter. The tale opens as Starr is outmatched and charmed by fellow gambler Larry Blackie (George Eastman). They form a violent relationship, which climaxes when she decides to beat him to the treasure in a jewel robbery.

We are not just a festival. We are a movement.

Les Femmes Underground International is a film festival centered on the subversive, unique, and innovative. LEFUFF, showcases artists from all walks of life creating work which redefines the manner in which women are represented in mainstream cinema.

LEFUFF invites you to take a cinematic adventure that destroys the meaning of mundane through its unique programming via the underground world of feminist inter-sectional art, music, and celluloid fantasies.

Les Femmes Underground International film festival features films from over 30 different countries ranging in genres from Documentary, Experimental, Narrative, Horror, Female Sexuality, and our own concoction Psychotropic. Our programing digs into the esoteric realms, of witchcraft and feminism. We pride ourselves in merging occult ideology and notions of the phrase, “witch” as a way to indoctrinate equality, independence, and empowerment.

Event Details

Director: Desiree Akhavan
Starring: Chloe Grace Moretz, Sasha Lane, Jennifer Ehle
Duration: 121 min

This screening with be accompanied by a live Q&A with acclaimed writer/director Desiree Akhavan.

Cameron Post (Chloë Grace Moretz) looks the part of a perfect high-school girl. But after she’s caught with another girl in the back seat of a car on prom night, Cameron is quickly shipped off to a conversion therapy centre that treats teens “struggling with same-sex attraction”. At the facility, Cameron is subjected to outlandish discipline, dubious “de-gaying” methods and earnest Christian rock songs – but this unusual setting also provides her with an unlikely gay community. For the first time, she connects with peers and is able to find her place among fellow outcasts.

Writer/director Desiree Akhavan (Appropriate Behavior) and co-writer Cecilia Frugiuele sensitively adapt Emily Danforth’s acclaimed coming-of-age novel and create a refreshingly original teen movie. Balancing inherent drama with understated humour, The Miseducation Of Cameron Post looks at a teenage girl grappling with pain and loss who, at the same time, creates a family on her own terms and learns what it means to empower herself by having confidence in her own identity.

Event Details

An 1867 painting by Jean-Francois Millet inspired septuagenarian documentarian Agnes Varda to cross the French countryside to videotape people who scavenge. Taking everything from surplus in the fields, to rubbish in trashcans, to oysters washed up after a storm, the “gleaners” range from those sadly in need to those hoping to recreate the community activity of centuries past, and still others who use whatever they find to cobble together a rough art.

Event Details

Co-Presented by Black World Cinema

This touring program of four short French films takes as its focus the idea of “self-image” and how that basic concept is complicated for diasporic people of color, who may have much more fragmented family histories, displacement from one’s homeland and heritage, and invisibility in culture and society.

Films #DirectedbyWomen include…

Le bleu blanc rouge de mes cheveux (Josza Anjembe, 2017, France 21 min
Seyna, a seventeen-year-old Cameroonian adolescent, is passionate about the history of France, the country where she was born and which she loves very much. Having obtained her baccalaureate and approaching adulthood, Seyna has only one desire, to acquire French nationality. But her father Amidou is fiercely opposed to it.

Gagarine (Fanny Liatard and Jérémy Trouilh, 2015, France, 15 min)
Youri is 20 years old and he has always lived with his mother in a social housing district near Paris. But his building is going to be demolished because of an urban renovation project. Youri doesn’t accept the idea of leaving his home : that’s his spaceship?

Event Details

Join us for a screening of critically acclaimed White Right: Meeting The Enemy followed by a Q&A with filmmaker Deeyah Khan and investigative journalist Catrin Nye.

When Deeyah Khan was six, her father took her to her first anti-racism rally. A Pakistani immigrant to Norway, he promised her that things would get better and that the skinhead gangs that terrorised their family and families like them would soon find themselves relics of past prejudices, that bigotry belonged in history, that tomorrow would be a more tolerant time.

Three decades on, and we’re still waiting for tomorrow.

With a US president propagating anti-Muslim propaganda, the far-right gaining ground in German elections, hate crime rising in the UK, and divisive populist rhetoric infecting political and public discourse across western democracies, Deeyah Khan’s White Right: Meeting The Enemy asks why.

Following the lauded JIHAD – in which she spoke to radicalised British Muslims who had fought in the name of jihad on the battlefields of Afghanistan, Iraq, Bosnia and Chechnya and now found themselves full of regret – Deeyah joins the frontline of the race wars in America. She sits face-to-face with fascists, racists and the proponents of the “alt-right” ideologies that have propelled Donald Trump to the presidency. From Breitbart’s darling, Richard Spencer to Jeff Schoep, leader of American’s largest neo-Nazi organisation, Deeyah’s need to find the deeper human causes of horrific social forces opens a different possibility for connection and solutions. Rather than dismiss these men as monsters, she’s determined to discover the men behind the masks.

Urgent and resonant, White Right is Deeyah Khan’s most personal film yet. Nominated for 2018 BAFTA Award in the Current Affairs category.

Event Details

From the director of Ratcatcher and We Need To Talk About Kevin, You Were Never Really Here is the brutal and defiantly masterful new film by uncompromising British filmmaker Lynne Ramsay, and stars an ever-excellent Joaquin Phenoix as a damaged Gulf War veteran and former FBI agent turned assassin for hire, tasked with rescuing a U.S. senator’s daughter from an upscale brothel, as well as taking out the perpetrators responsible for her kidnapping.

Recalling many of the harrowing themes found in Scorsese’s Taxi Driver, and aided by Thomas Townend’s remarkable cinematography and Jonny Greenwood’s immersive electronic score, this inventive thriller is a devastating portrayal of a man wrestling with years of repression and abuse while engaged in a cycle of violence he cannot control.

“…an overwhelming experience, a slice of pure cinema from a director who refuses to dance to the beat of anyone’s drum but her own. From the disorienting opening to the enigmatic finale, Lynne Ramsay is always really here, her commanding vision shining through every frame”
Mark Kermode, The Guardian

6:30pm Baronesa directed by Juliana Antunes6:30pm - 7:41pmJuliana Antunes’ astonishing debut follows friends Andreia and Leid as they navigate the perilous reality of daily life in the favelas of Belo Horizonte. At first glance, their days seem calm and untroubled, but the threat of violence is never far away and Andreia dreams of moving to the safer neighbourhood of nearby Baronesa. Antunes spent five years in Belo Horizonte working with a non-professional cast to create a work of rare intimacy and authenticity which—despite its simple structure—emerges as a complex, multilayered and moving portrait of contemporary life in the favelas. Baronesa announces an exciting new voice in Brazilian cinema. Please be advised that this film contains discussion of sexual assault which some viewers might find distressing. In partnership with MUBI. Location: Regent Street Cinema
September 5, 2018
6:15pm Shorts: Separations6:15pm - 7:47pmFeelings of displacement and detachment are expressed in these intimate, authored shorts. Be it through societal pressures or religious traditions, the situations documented here characterise the sense of unease caused by seemingly impassable divisions between worlds. Absent Wound directed by Maryam Tafakory, Ma directed by Maria Stoianova, The Haunted directed by Saodat Ismailova, Missed Call directed by Victoria Mapplebeck, Season of Goodbyes directed by Phillipa Ndisi-Herrmann. Location: Prince Charles Cinema
6:30pm Hyphen: An Evening with NANG6:30pm - 7:35pm“Where are you from?” “Right, but where are you really from?” Hyphen is a programme featuring short films and video works from artists and filmmakers who voluntarily or involuntarily moved outside their country of origin. Presented as part of the London launch of the latest issue (Issue 4: In & Out) of NANG, a magazine on Asian cinema, this programme hopes to counter the narrative of hostile simplification that has embroiled the topic of migration in recent years by celebrating the diversity of voices and experiences that the hyphen brings. A panel discussion with artists and contributors will follow. Mouth to Mouth directed by Theresa Hak Kyung Cha, Tell me the story Of all these things directed by Rehana Zaman, Sugiharti Halim directed by Ariani Darmawan. Co-curated by Maryam Tafakory & Julian Ross. Co-presented with NANG and CREAM (University of Westminster). Location: Regent Street Cinema
6:45pm Becoming Animal directed by Emma Davie and Peter Mettler6:45pm - 7:58pmIn this immersive, visually inventive film, directors Emma Davie (I Am Breathing) and Peter Mettler (The End of Time) journey into Wyoming’s Grand Teton National Park with philosopher and cultural ecologist David Abram, searching for the liminal spaces where humans and animals meet. Challenging our human-centric view of the natural world, this subversive nature film uses cinema’s sensory tools to explore humanity’s relationship with the natural environment, proposing—through expressionistic visuals and stimulating narration—that a better balance can be achieved. An essay film unlike any other, Becoming Animal is an sublime sensorial experience and an inspiring, intellectual one too. Screens with The Other Side and Eleanor McDowall & Laura Barton and Skywards and Eva Weber. Location: Curzon Soho
September 6, 2018
6:30pm Casanova Gene directed by Luise Donschen6:30pm - 7:37pmLuise Donschen’s highly inventive feature debut explores the nature of seduction and desire through a series of surprising and irreverent tableaux (captured on rich 16mm by cinematographer Helena Wittmann) that combine fiction, documentary, interview and performance. Moving from a portrait of a dominatrix and her clients; to a biological investigation into the mating habits of finches; via an unlikely encounter with John Malkovich (in character as Casanova himself) and some strange scenes in a singles bar straight out of a Fassbinder film, Donschen’s free-form essay on the rules of attraction explores the complexities of gender, identity, and sexuality with humour, intelligence and wit. Screens with 21,3 °c directed by Helena Wittmann and OFF directed by Helena Wittmann and Luise Donschen. Location: ICA London
8:20pm Flight of a Bullet directed by Beata Bubenec8:20pm - 9:40pmBeata Bubenec’s single-take documentary opens on a blown-out bridge in Ukraine’s heavily contested Donbass region. A local man—taking exception to being filmed—is bundled into a car by armed forces and driven off for interrogation. But despite the intensity of the action unfolding in front of the camera, attention and scrutiny quickly turns to goings-on behind the lens as Bubanec’s allegiances (and motivations) are called into question. As the tension of the exhilarating opening scene subsides, the film shifts into a fascinating and provocative study of how the violence of conflict permeates into the mundanity of the everyday. Location: Regent Street Cinema
8:30pm Angkar directed by Neary Adeline Hay8:30pm - 9:41pmBorn from a forced marriage during the Khmer Rouge regime, director Neary Adeline Hay travels back to Cambodia with her father, Khonsaly, to face his former Khmer Rouge persecutors. In Ta Saeng, the detention village that they lived together in as prisoners over forty years before, Khonsaly and the remaining inhabitants recount the workings of the sites that became theatres for the deaths of millions. In a contemplative, artful piece of testimony, Hay and her father produce a personal and poetic treatise on the need to record and reactivate memory and not forget the past, however painful it may be. Location: Picturehouse Central
6:10pm The Pain of Others directed by Penny Lane6:10pm - 7:21pmMorgellons disease is a medical mystery. Although doctors have no explanation for the condition, thousands of sufferers claim to experience a persistent crawling sensation under their skin, thin fibres growing out of their body and a host of other symptoms. Penny Lane dives head first into the online community of Morgellons patients re-working candid home-videos uploaded to YouTube by three women who are afflicted with the disease. The Pain of Others explores the slippery ideas around self-diagnosis, empathy and online support networks but Lane’s original and unsettling film refuses to offer answers to any of its own questions. Part of Penny Lane: In Focus. Location: BFI Southbank
September 7, 2018
8:30pm Shorts: Imprints 8:30pm - 10:07pmHumanity’s imprint on the environment is pervasive and enduring – the marks we leave outlive us and distort our landscape, obscuring it with ghosts of forgotten pasts and promised futures. This selection of films documents those marks made – and the narratives we construct in their wake.Graven Image directed by Sierra Pettengill, Stone Engravings and the Three-Colored Chickenpox Tale directed by Luciana Mazeto & Vinícius Lopes, and Plastic Man Yulia Kovanova. Location: Picturehouse Central
9:00pm The Ethno-Fictions of Laura Huertas Millán9:00pm - 10:18pmLaura Huertas Millán’s three acclaimed recent works—developed during her practise-based SACRe PhD between Beaux-Arts de Paris and Harvard Sensory Ethnography Lab—look to reconsider ethnography as an essentially fictitious mode of storytelling. “On the one hand, if one considers ethnography as an ensemble of narratives rooted in colonialism, it might be understandable as a form of fiction-making. On the other hand, some of the most interesting contemporary practices of ethnography have embraced a de-colonial turn, sometimes by integrating the fictional language tools within their own elaboration.” While exploring this in-betweenness Huertas Millán created Sol Negro (2016), La Libertad (2017), and jeny303 (2018), all of which screen as UK Premieres. Location: ICA London
September 8, 2018
1:00pm Our Nixon directed by Penny Lane1:00pm - 2:25pmThroughout Richard Nixon’s presidency, three of his top White House aides obsessively documented their experiences with Super 8 home movie cameras. Young, idealistic and dedicated, they had no idea that a few years later they’d all be in prison. Following the Watergate scandal, the films remained locked up in an government safe for forty years but Penny Lane dusted them off to craft this ambitious and enthralling portrait of the Nixon presidency. Earning her a reputation as an exciting new voice in non-fiction storytelling, Lane’s debut feature is a playful and pertinent commentary on the line between privacy and politics. Part of Penny Lane: In Focus. Location: Prince Charles Cinema
2:00pm Shorts: Interiors2:00pm - 3:34pmThis programme of short films takes a meditative trip through domestic spaces, exploring the interrelation between interiors and those that inhabit them. These films seek to identify the ways in which this interaction reflects wider social and political issues, and how experiences of confinement can seem to transcend temporality. 26 rue Saint-Fargeau directed by Margaux Guillemard, The Mess directed by Dorothy Allen-Pickard, Today is 11th June 1993 directed by Clarissa Thieme, and Roosenberg directed by Ingel Vaikla. Location: Bertha DocHouse
6:00pm This is Home directed by Alexandra Shiva6:00pm - 7:31pmWhat happens to Syrian refugees given haven in a western country? This striking suburban Baltimore set film paints a fascinating picture of the USA through the eyes of four families going through the country’s refugee self-sufficiency resettlement programme. The journey towards acculturation includes buying hijabs featuring the stars and stripes; discovering twelve hour working days; and beginning to confront the challenging gender expectations of their new home. This Is Home gives a novel portrait of America, whilst conveying the resilience of its shipwrecked subjects in a moving and compelling fashion. Location: Curzon Soho
6:30pm The End of Fear directed by Barbara Visser6:30pm - 7:40pmIn 1986, one of the most famous crimes against art was committed when a man attacked a Barnett Newman painting in Amsterdam’s Stedelijk Museum with a box cutter, slashing the large abstract canvas as an act of anti-modernist vandalism. After American conservator Daniel Goldreyer was hired to restore the painting, nobody expected what happened next – the canvas arriving home plastered over crudely with red paint and a roller. Artist and filmmaker Barbara Visser calls into question the value of art, cultural gatekeeping and notions of appropriation and authorship with her playful and innovative investigation into what makes art art. Screens with The Sleeping Fool directed by Sofia Saldanha. Location: Picturehouse Central
8:30pm The Best Thing You Can Do With Your Life directed by Zita Erffa8:30pm - 10:03pmZita Erffa and her brother László were always close, so when László announced he was moving to a monastery in Connecticut, Zita was shocked and confused. This choice meant that the siblings would only be allowed to see each other once a year, corresponding otherwise only through letters. Eight years on, Zita secures permission to spend two weeks filming her brother inside the monastery and finally confront him about his decision. A fascinating insight into the ultra-conservative Catholic brotherhood of the Legionaries, The Best Thing You Can Do With Your Life is a cathartic, intimate study of family bonds and religious devotion. Location: Regent Street Cinema
September 9, 2018
1:00pm Jamilia directed by Aminatou Echard1:00pm - 2:24pmRecorded in Kyrgyzstan, artist filmmaker Aminatou Echard’s first feature length work searches for Jamilia, the eponymous heroine of Chingiz Aitmatov’s classic 1958 novel about a young woman who, having been abducted and forced to marry, fled with her lover. Fifty years after the book’s publishing, Echard travels to meet several generations of Kyrgyz women. The film that resulted from her research is a delicate and impressionistic Super 8 portrait of the country reflected through the prism of their stories, exploring a culture where the patriarchal system curbs their freedom to work, desire, love, live or dream, yet resistance remains. Screens with At Land | Maya Deren. Location: Prince Charles Cinema
1:00pm The Short Films of Penny Lane1:00pm - 2:11pmPenny Lane’s films combine archive, found-materials and sound recordings to pose questions around authorship and authenticity throughout history. This screening offers a rare opportunity to see Lane’s short form work; distinctive, entertaining and provocative in equal measure. The event will include an extended Q&A with Penny covering her work and creative practice. We Are The Littletons, Men Seeking Women, She Used to See Him Most Weekends, How to Write an Autobiography, The Voyagers, The Silent Majority, Normal Appearances, and Nellie Bly Makes the News. Part of Penny Lane: In Focus Location: BFI Southbank
4:15pm Voices of the Sea directed by Kim Hopkins4:15pm - 5:49pmAn emotionally charged film exploring the irreconcilable choices faced by the residents of a remote Cuban fishing village. Mother of four Mariela is tempted to follow her brother to Miami in their pursuit of wealth and freedom. Already a treacherous crossing, the US Coast Guard patrol the waters returning migrants to certain punishment. What’s more, her older husband, Pita would rather endure the tough conditions to stay in a community and a profession that he loves. Voices of the Sea is a beautifully shot and surprisingly frank portrait of the people that Cuban socialism was supposed to protect. Location: Curzon Soho
6:00pm Nabihah Iqbal Presents: Winter Soldier directed by Winterfilm Collective6:00pm - 7:36pmIn February 1971, one month after the notorious My Lai massacre, over one hundred Vietnam War veterans gathered to testify in an unprecedented public inquiry into the atrocities committed by American forces in combat. Organised by anti-war veteran’s organisation ‘Vietnam Veterans Against the War’, the event was barely reported to the American public at the time. But their unflinching testimony was captured by a filmmaking collective and turned into a raw, angry and radical documentary that went virtually unseen for more than thirty years. Well regarded by those that have seen it, Winter Soldier remains essential viewing. DJ, producer and NTS Radio presenter Nabihah Iqbal will present a rare screening of the film, followed by a discussion and an evening of music inspired by the film, featuring protest songs and music from the anti-war movement from 1950-1975.

“One of the great outpourings of cinematic invention in an age of over-all artistic liberation.” – Richard Brody, The New Yorker

Daisies is an aesthetically and politically adventurous film that’s widely considered one of the great works of feminist cinema.

It’s a satirical, wild and irreverent story of teenage rebellion. Two young women rebel against a degenerate and oppressive society, attacking symbols of wealth and bourgeois culture. A riotous, punk-rock poem of a film that is both hilarious and mind-warpingly innovative, Daisies was banned in native Czechoslovakia and director Vera Chytilová was forbidden to work until 1975.

Screening is subtitled (in English).

Event Details

France’s answer to Fleabag sees Laetitia Dosch explode onto the screen as Paula in Léonor Serraille’s debut film Jeune Femme, a live-wire comedy and an excessive exercise in humour and urgency which explores modern life’s everyday misfortunes.

Back in Paris after a long absence and finding the key to her boyfriend’s apartment no longer works, Paula goes on an erratic “voyage de la loon” around the city – broken-hearted, self-destructive, and with only her ex’s cat’s deadpan stares to rely on. By her nature unable to do anything but live int he moment, we watch as Paula tries her best to reclaim a measure of stability, making new allies and seeing the reappearance of figures from her past.

“Thrillingly capturing both time and place and fizzing with non-judgemental empathy and cinematic flair, this is a magnificent debut that catapults Laetitia Dosch into the front rank of French actresses”

The Lesson (Urok) | Kristina Groszeva, Petar Valchanov | 4 September | 8.30pm | 2015 | Bulgaria, Greece | 1hr 51 min | 15 | Bulgarian with English subtitles | BBFC info

In The Lesson, school teacher Nadezhda (Margita Gosheva) struggles against the odds to keep her home, her family and her integrity intact. An act of theft in her classroom is just the beginning of an escalating series of challenges, as Nadezhda faces financial precarity at home that sees her seek ever more risky solutions. The ethical questions that The Lesson poses are realised with a deft naturalism of performance and rhythm that draws you in and holds you throughout.

“Writer/directors Grozeva and Valchanov keep the pace swift and the tension high in this utterly absorbing and thought-provoking drama.” – Screen Machine team

This screening is part of Films We Love:
Between August and October we’re bringing six different foreign language films to six different locations. We’ve listened closely to many of you who told us you’d to see a broader range of films. Each film has been chosen specially by six members of the Screen Machine team.

These are an outstanding selection of international titles spanning decades, a variety of genres and innovative filmmaking styles.

We’ve delved deep into our fondest memories of cinema-going to choose films that inspire, challenge and entertain. These are films we love – we hope you’ll love them too.

3 YEARS OF CARIBBEAN FILM

LIGHT IT UP

It’s a call to action. A call to arms. A call to change. A call that’s been ringing out for a long time and Caribbean filmmakers are answering that call in force. We’re asking them to focus their light on all the changes in the world, to showcase their vision of change and spread their message, to lead the way. The world can be a dark place, but we can look at that darkness and say “Light it Up.”

Our film selection panel has received numerous entries and after a rigorous process has programmed a number of films that we believe will be enjoyed by audiences in Toronto. This year we have selected 10 feature films for competition, paired with a number of short films that complement the featured selection.

SHORT FILM. “If you think of culture always as a return to roots — R-O-O-T-S — you’re missing the point. I think of culture as routes — R-O-U-T-E-S — the various routes by which people travel, culture travels, culture moves, culture develops, culture changes, cultures migrate, etc.” – Stuart Hall

Danardo Jones sets out on a car ride with his teenage son in hopes of having a conversation that some parents dread and others are unaware of.

7:00pm THE INCURSION (part of Redemption Song screening)7:00pm - 9:00pmDirected by Sasha-Gay Lewis. SHORT FILM. On May 23, 2010 a joint police/military operation famously known as “The Incursion” was launched in the innercity community of Tivoli Gardens, Jamaica to capture the notorious drug lord Christopher ‘Dudus’ Coke. This search climaxed in a deadly clash between the security forces, residents and supporters of Coke. Told from the perspective of the residents, “The Incursion” is an immersive experience that chronicles the events of that day, the emotional and personal trauma the residents’ endured and its lingering effects on their lives today.

7:30pm IT STAYS WITH YOU: Use of Force by UN Peacekeepers in Haiti @ Cineplex (part of Torchsong screening)7:30pm - 9:30pmDirected by Cahal McLaughlin & Siobhan Wills. FEATURED SCREENING. Between 2005-2007 UN peacekeeping troops carried out several raids on Cité Soleil, a severely economically depressed neighbourhood of Port-au-Prince. Although the raids were specifically targeted against leaders of criminal gangs, scores of civilians were killed and many more injured. This film returns to Cité Soleil to examine the impact of those raids on the community and to find out how survivors of the raids have fared in the ten years since. The film is produced using participatory practices, where the survivors retain control over their own contribution and were consulted during the filmmaking process and prior to public viewing.

Event Details

In The Smiling Madame Beudet, considered by many to be Germaine Dulac’s masterpiece, she uses all the cinematic means at her disposal to tell the story of the frustrations and fantasies of a young wife, trapped in a loveless marriage with a boorish husband. Here female desire is inherently deviant and can only be expressed through the imagination. Dulac gives us access to Madame Beudet’s inner life through the use of a variety of effects (special lenses, superimpositions, odd angles, a focus on repeated gestures) so that we see and feel the marriage through her eyes. In the late 1920s, Dulac embarked on an intense period of radical aesthetic exploration, implementing some of the ideas she had been writing about in her essays on the avant-garde in her abstract shorts Thèmes et variations, Étude cinégraphique sur une arabesque, and Disque 957. While sometimes inspired by pieces of music and using often recognizable imagery—mechanical, organic, and human forms in motion—the focus in these films was on rhythms, light, and movement. In Dulac’s words: “Lines, surfaces, volumes evolving directly, without the artifice of evocations, in the logic of their forms, freed from any too human meaning to better elevate themselves to abstraction and to give more space to sensations and dreams: integral cinema.”
—Irina Leimbacher

4:00pm Close Knit directed by Naoko Ogigami4:00pm - 6:07pmTomo is an 11-year-old girl whose mother is woefully incapable of caring for her. When the child awakes one morning to find her mother gone—apparently off on a bender— Tomo seeks refuge with her bookstore-clerk uncle, Makio. Before bringing her home to his apartment, Makio cautiously informs Tomo that he’s got a new girlfriend, Rinko, and that there’s something different about her. Rinko is a transgender woman, whose maternal instincts kick in immediately upon Tomo’s arrival—she offers the child a warm meal, a spot on the couch to play Wii, and a bed to sleep in. While Tomo is at first hesitant to accept Rinko’s gestures of affection, she is quickly won over by the tenderness that this new mother figure in her life offers, not to mention the exquisite delicacy with which Rinko does everything from packing lunch to knitting—a craft she teaches Tomo as a way to channel the girl’s anger and sadness. Woven closer every day as a family unit, the three characters are confronted with a wrenching decision when Tomo’s wayward mother returns, looking to be reunited with her daughter.
4:45pm Transmilitary directed by Fiona Dawson and Gabe Silverman4:45pm - 6:18pmThe 2018 SXSW Audience Award-winning feature film debut by Gabriel Silverman & Fiona Dawson, TRANSMILITARY follows the Emmy-nominated short film TRANSGENDER, AT WAR AND IN LOVE. Around 15,500 transgender people serve in the U.S. military (notably the largest transgender employer in the U.S.), where they must conceal their gender identity because military policies ban their service. TRANSMILITARY chronicles the lives of four individuals (Senior Airman Logan Ireland, Corporal Laila Villanueva, Captain Jennifer Peace & First Lieutenant El Cook) defending their country’s freedom while fighting for their own. They put their careers and their families’ livelihoods on the line by coming out as transgender to top brass officials in the Pentagon in hopes of attaining the equal right to serve. The ban was lifted in 2016, but with President Trump now trying to reinstate it, their futures hang in the balance again.
7:00pm LEZ BOMB directed by Jenna Laurenzo (W/ CHILDREN ALIKE directed by Julia Boström) 7:00pm - 8:30pmA still closeted young woman brings her girlfriend home for Thanksgiving only to have her coming out efforts thwarted by the unexpected arrival of her male roommate (screens with "Children Alike" D: Julia Boström, Sweden, 5 min).

10:30am Love, Scott directed by Laura Marie Wayne10:30am - 11:45amFollowing the journey of a young gay musician who is attacked and paralyzed from the waist down, Love, Scott is an intimate and visually evocative window into queer experience, set against a stunning score by Sigur Rós.
11:00am ALASKA IS A DRAG directed by Shaz Bennett11:00am - 12:28pmThis is a fish out of water story -- literally. Everyone who slices fish all day daydreams - his are just glamtastic. He's had to learn to fight to survive. And his boss who is also an amateur boxer takes note. When a new kid offers to be his sparring partner – he and his twin are forced to confront the real reason they’re stuck in fish guts.
12:30pm JUST FRIENDS directed by Ellen Smit (W/ FLASHBACK) 12:30pm - 1:50pmTwo young men from different cultural backgrounds seem perfectly matched for love, but the idiosyncrasies of their parents may keep them apart, in this winning romantic tale set in the Netherlands. When we first meet handsome medical student Yad (Majd Mardo), he has quit his hard-partying life in Amsterdam and moved home to a smaller Dutch city to live with his Middle Eastern mother and father. To their dismay, he settles for a temporary job in domestic care, working for a bubbly elderly woman named Ans (Jenny Arean). Like a mischievous Cupid, Ans slyly introduces Yad to her dashing and sexy grandson Joris (Josha Stradowski), and their connection is immediate. But Joris is dealing with his own set of family problems, including an overbearing mother who is addicted to plastic surgery and who has never fully dealt with the messy end of her marriage to Joris’ late father (screens with "Flashback" D: Queer Youth Media Project, USA, 6 min).
12:45pm WILD NIGHTS WITH EMILY directed by Madeleine Olnek (W/ FIFTEEN directed by Louisa Baldwin)12:45pm - 2:15pmMolly Shannon plays Emily Dickinson in the humorous drama Wild Nights With Emily. The poet’s persona, popularized since her death, became that of a reclusive spinster – a delicate wallflower, too sensitive for this world. This film explores her vivacious, irreverent side that was covered up for years — most notably Emily’s lifelong romantic relationship with another woman (Susan Ziegler). After Emily died, a rivalry emerged when her brother's mistress (Amy Seimetz) along with editor T.W. Higginson (Brett Gelman) published a book of Emily's poems (screens with "Fifteen," D: Louisa Baldwin, USA, 4 min).
1:45pm SILVANA directed by Mika Gustafson, Olivia Kastebring, Christina Tsiobanelis1:45pm - 3:16pmSwedish rapper Silvana Imam quickly rose to fame with her blunt, uncompromising rhymes. In the span of just a year, she became a superstar. The world of hip-hop has long been male-dominated, which means she has to work even harder. Not only is she female, but also a lesbian feminist. Her politically charged anthems about destroying the patriarchy brought a whole new audience to rap. Huge crowds of young women came with fists in the air to sing along to her lyrics. The media began labeling her a hero for women and the LGBT community. The praise was nice, but the pressure of being a role model was hard to handle. She was also tired of journalists focusing only on her gender and sexuality, rather than on her musical talents. Everything started to take a toll on her mental health.
3:30pm MR. SOUL! directed by Melissa Haizlip3:30pm - 5:00pmPremiering in 1968, SOUL! was the first nationally broadcast all-Black variety show on public television, merging artists from the margins with post–civil rights Black radical thought. Visionary producer-turned-host Ellis Haizlip—openly gay and committed to charting new aesthetic territory—brought the avant-garde into the mainstream by foregrounding poetry and politics. Debuting icons like Patti Labelle, Ashford & Simpson and Arsenio Hall alongside early legends such as Toni Morrison, James Baldwin and the Last Poets, Haizlip's keen ear for talent propelled a cultural shift so powerful it pushed Nixon into action. Amiri Baraka, Sonia Sanchez, Nikki Giovanni, Kathleen Cleaver and more reflect on this lost chapter of pop culture history and revisit their time on Soul! With original music by Robert Glasper, take a deep dive into these unseen yet urgent archives and learn about the complex man who was the SOUL! of it all.
5:30pm DADDY ISSUES directed by Amara Cash (W/ YES & NO directed by Aharonit Elior) 5:30pm - 7:06pmA modern-day tragedy about a 19-year-old queer pixie, her estranged neurotic father, and the woman they're both infatuated with. (screens with "Spark" D: Aharonit Elior, USA, 6 min)

10:45am YOURS IN SISTERHOOD directed by Irene Lusztig10:45am - 12:35pmYours In Sisterhood invites strangers in communities all over the US to read aloud and respond to letters from the 1970s sent to the editor of Ms. Magazine, America's first mainstream feminist magazine. The intimate, provocative, and sometimes heartbreaking conversations with strangers that emerge from these spontaneous performances of forty-year-old letters make us think critically about the past, present, and future of feminism, providing a space of reflection that is newly urgent in the aftermath of the 2016 election.
1:00pm DOCUMENTARY SHORTS1:00pm - 2:00pmFilms #DirectedbyWomen include... Gaby Scott's Angela Wilson, A Butcher's Story, Milena Salazar & Joella Cabalu's Do I Have Boobs Now?, Jari Osborne's Picture This and Olivia Crellin's SUNUNÚ: THE REVOLUTION OF LOVE

Event Details

“I felt I needed to invent my cinema. With La Pointe Courte, I just jumped in, in the most radical fashion.”

Anticipating the style and attitude of the French New Wave by a number of years, Agnès Varda’s directorial debut remains as fresh and as original as the day it was made.

La Pointe Courte follows two different stories, a government inspector’s visit, and a couple facing the tribulations of a relationship crisis, set against the backdrop of the titular Mediterranean fishing town. Silvia Monfort and Philippe Noiret (in his onscreen debut) exceptionally play the married couple drifting through life and their relationship troubles at the forefront of the film.

Remarkably assured and insightful, the film bears the realist approach, social comment and filmmaking flair that would later become hallmarks in Varda’s filmography.

Newly single, always wild, Julie throws a late night party. In the kitchen Jean and Kristina clean up to the din of the partygoers upstairs. When Julie provokes a flirtation and initiates a power struggle with Jean, the night plummets into scenes of brutality and a desperate fight for survival. Fuelled by social division, Strindberg’s 1888 masterpiece, Miss Julie, remains shocking and fiercely relevant. Polly Stenham’s edgy and fresh new adaptation brings the classic masterpiece up to date with a contemporary London setting. Directed by Carrie Cracknell (Medea, Oil) with Vanessa Kirby and Eric Kofi Abrefa as Julie and Jean.

Event Details

FUTURE LANGUAGE is a distorted portrait of an artist that explores storytelling, ego, delusion, conviction, and memory. VON LMO is a musician/artist and self-proclaimed alien-hybrid who was a part of the late 1970s New York No Wave music scene. Between trips to his home planet of Strazar and multi-dimensional travel, VON has also spent some very real time in prison and on the streets of Earth. Confronted with the challenge of translating his Future Language for audiences across the galaxy, Lori, filmmaker and VON LMO fan, gets sucked into VON’s orbit and finds herself lost in his story.

“FUTURE LANGUAGE is the most ambitious film Felker has made to date…. The film is as much about Lori as an artist as it is about VON LMO as a musician, and about how they both interact with each other and with the camera, as filmmaker, as documentary subject, and as human beings.” –Bryan Wendorf, CHICAGO UNDERGROUND FILM FESTIVAL

VON LMO will be performing live in Tompkins Square Park on Sunday, September 9; check anthologyfilmarchives.org in late July for more info.

The categories, of which there are currently 10, are: Mixed Media and Visual Design; Editing; Cinematography; Writing; Original Music: Directing; Male Performance: Female Performance; The Maya Deren Short Film Innovation Prize; Film Short Grand Prize.

Emma Zurcher-Long, Geneva Peschka and Julia Ngeow, 2018, 26 min.

14-year-old Emma Zurcher-Long sees and hears the world, as she put it, in “Hi-res, technicolor and surround sound”.

While it may not always be easy for people to understand where Emma is coming from, it has become her mission to teach the world how potent, powerful and dynamic the life of an autistic teenager actually is.

To achieve this Emma uses the keyboard to strengthen her communication with others. Applying her insightful writing as a catalyst and remedy to the fear and misunderstanding surrounding autism, Emma presents Unspoken as a collaborative self-portrait. Her quest to enrich our understanding of what it means to be human takes Emma to conferences and schools across North America, where she shares a message of hope, love and acceptance.

As a chronicle of a teenager coming into her own, and as a work advocating for the rights of all peoples, Unspoken is a lesson on, and celebration of, living an authentic life.

This is Emma’s debut as co-director.

Q&A with Co-Directors Emma Zurcher-Long (and subject), Geneva Peschka, Julia Ngeow and Ariane Zurcher (Emma’s Aide) followed by a reception on Friday, September 7th and Thursday, September 13th. More Q&As to follow.

Executive produced by Academy nominated actress Vera Farmiga and producer Renn Hawkey.

Unspoken had its premiere at the 40th Mill Valley Film Festival and have been awarded the 2017 Positive Image in Media Award by TASH (the largest disability conference in North America) and screened at the ReelAbilitites Film Festival in Toronto, the Albuquerque Film & Music Experience and SXSW EDU 2018.

Event Details

In a rural village in present day Zambia, an orphaned eight-year-old girl is accused of being a witch. As punishment, she’s given a choice: either accept enslavement in state-run camp tethered to a white ribbon or risk transformation into a goat. With a story formed from research on real-life African witch camps, director Rungano Nyoni (in a stunning feature debut) and cinematographer David Gallego (Embrace of the Serpent) craft a world—and cinematic voice—unlike any other, deftly mixing Kafkaesque comedy, anthropological inquiry, poignant drama, and feminist fairytale. A Film Movement release

Event Details

Brazilian feminist festival “Século XXI: Mulheres, Ação! ”

Audre Lorde’s incisive, often-angry, but always brilliant writings and speeches defined and inspired the US-American feminist, lesbian, African-American, and Women-of-Color movements of the 1970s and 1980s. Audre Lorde – the Berlin Years 1984 to 1992 documents an untold chapter of Lorde’s life: her influence on the German political and cultural scene during a decade of profound social change. The film explores the importance of Lorde’s legacy, as she encouraged Afro-Germans—who, at that time, had no name or space for themselves—to make themselves visible within a culture that until then had kept them isolated and silent.

It chronicles Lorde’s empowerment of Afro-German women to write and to publish, as she challenged white women to acknowledge the significance of their white privilege and to deal with difference in constructive ways. Previously unreleased archive material as well as present-day interviews explore the lasting influence of Lorde’s ideas on Germany and the impact of her work and personality.

Event Details

Legendary Aboriginal actor David Gulpilil has spent his adult life trying to navigate his way through two very different cultures: that of his Yolngu people and that of the prevailing Australian culture. In Another Country, he gives us first-hand insight into the confusions and chaos that occur in the clash between these cultures.

At the beginning of last century the Australian Government, along with entrepreneurs, opportunists and ‘do-gooders’, made a concerted effort to gain control of the lands of the Yolngu people across northern Arnhem Land, along the central part of northern Australia. The long succession of would-be cattle barons, missionaries and government agents failed to dispossess the Yolngu of their lands, but the introduction of their new ways and different laws succeeded in eroding the heart of a complex culture that was once strong, defiant and self-sufficient.

Another Country is a documentary which considers, from the inside, the ramifications of one culture being dominated by another.

Event Details

Harry Graham (Edmond O’Brien) is a San Francisco businessman in the process of adopting a child with his wife and business partner, Eve (Joan Fontaine). In vetting the couple, the adoption agency’s private investigator discovers Harry has another wife, Phyllis (Ida Lupino), with whom he already has a child. When confronted, Harry confesses, detailing through flashbacks how he met Phyllis on a business trip during a strained period in his marriage with Eve. The Bigamist was the final feature film Lupino helmed as director for The Filmakers, the independent production company she co-founded with her by-then ex-husband Collier Young. In a remarkable twist, Lupino’s co-star (and good friend) Fontaine was married at the time to Young, creating an interesting mirroring effect for the production. 35mm preservation print courtesy of the UCLA Film & Television Archive.

Event Details

You’re invited to join NewFilmmakers Los Angeles (NFMLA) and The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) with presenting partners NALIP and SAG-AFTRA on Saturday, September 8th, 2018 for the annual NFMLA Film Festival InFocus: Latinx & Hispanic Cinema event. The event will be hosted at The Academy’s Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Beverly Hills.

This month’s festival presents a powerful lineup of local and international films by world-class emerging filmmakers from Mexico, Brazil, Peru, Spain, Colombia, Chile, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Argentina and the United States across three short film programs. The evening opens with a collection of stories that explore everything from time travel to forbidden love, being caught between two words, abusive work environments and the importance of community.

The evening continues with an eclectic mix of genres covering everything from whimsical experimentalism to dance, including a dark comedy about a man facing down bureaucracy, a uniquely complex drama about the loss of a child, and stories of children facing down incredible odds, whether during wartime or in an imagined post-apocalyptic future.

The night culminates with a dynamic and hard-hitting collection of films that include two world premieres, a comedy starring a Brazilian soap opera actor that both is and isn’t about its own production, new work by a returning NFMLA alum, a thoughtful drama about the quest for same-sex parenthood in Spain, and a meditation on what it means to come home, all concluding with a story of parental love that transcends even the darkest moments.

NFMLA and AMPAS have formed industry-wide alliances and partnerships to support this initiative.

The program is full of talented filmmakers, including multiple-award-winning directors, writers and producers whose films have been programmed and awarded across Europe, South America and in the United States, including at SXSW and Sundance.

The evening presents three world premieres; The Morphable Man, by Jonathan Ostos Yaber, an award-winning director who has been recognized by the Italian Animation Academy, Synopsis by Felipe Saleme and Lara Koer, which stars and is produced by Brazilian soap opera actor Gabriel Godoy, and Sra. Genovese, the newest film by NFMLA alumn Daniela Arguello, whose last film in the 2017 NFMLA program, 2500Km, was acquired by HBO and who gave a Ted Talk about her filmmaking last fall. Additionally, the event will be the Los Angeles premiere of Bailaora by Spanish Director Rubin Stein, who was names is one of the 10 Spanish Filmmakers on the Rise 2018 by Variety.

Doors will open to the public at 4 pm with a pre-reception for the first shorts program, and the night will include a pre-reception before each of the evening’s programs, where attendees can sip cocktails and mingle with industry professionals and festival selected filmmakers in the lounge. The event will conclude at 11:30 pm.

Tickets are available for $5 per program advanced purchase / $7 per program at the door and $15 for all-night access passes, which provide access to all three film programs with open bar throughout the entire event. NFMLA’s Monthly Film Festivals are presented throughout the year with support from Executive Circle Sponsors FilmLA, The Coca-Cola Company and HBO, Producers Circle Sponsors SAG-AFTRA, 21st Century Fox Global Inclusion, Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA | Golden Globes), LA County Arts Commission and LA City Department of Cultural Affairs (DCA).

Event Details

22-year old Paula is the lone witness to the assassination of her father on the streets of Medellín. The police walk away from the case and advise her to do the same, lest she falls victim too.

Coming to terms with her grief, she spots the murderer at a party, and befriends him in a plot to exact vengeance.

But, she grapples with her resolve as Jesús is slowly revealed to be as much of a victim of a violent society as she is in Laura Mora’s intense and semi-autobiographical debut.

It’s 1993, Cameron Post (Chloë Grace Moretz) looks the part of a perfect high school girl. But after she’s caught with another girl in the back seat of a car on prom night, Cameron is quickly shipped off to a conversion therapy center that treats teens “struggling with same-sex attraction.” At the facility, Cameron is subjected to outlandish discipline, dubious “de-gaying” methods, and earnest Christian rock songs—but this unusual setting also provides her with an unlikely gay community. For the first time, Cameron connects with peers, and she’s able to find her place among fellow outcasts.

Screened to critical acclaim at Sundance Film Festival this year, The Miseducation of Cameron Post is a deeply moving but incredibly funny look at the horrifying reality of conversion therapy otherwise know as ‘pray away the gay’.

It weaves nearly 130 of the artist’s iconic paintings into a detective story that is itself a “one-of-a-kind work of art.” Made over seven years, actors recreated the scenes in front of green screens, then 125 artists hand painted each of the 62,450 frames in Van Gogh’s style.

Shot in Paris during the height of the Sixties, Varda’s second film Cléo from 5 to 7 tells the story of Cléo, a pop singer who passes her time drifting through different locations and conversations while awaiting the results of a vital and potentially life-changing medical examination.

A forerunner to the French New Wave, Cléo from 5 to 7 was a truly trailblazing exercise in film narrative, shot in a documentary-like fashion to capture reality as true-to-life as cinematically possible. The film also has a famous ‘silent film-within-a-film’ segment, which all film connoisseurs will love, as it contains cameos by the likes of Jean-Luc Godard and Anna Karina.

Event Details

During the dawn of the digital age in the late 1990s and early 2000s, The Gleaners and I emerged as one of the first true masterpieces to evolve from the new and (at the time) relatively unexplored format. Taken from the old pastime of gleaning (collecting leftover crops from fields after they have been harvested), Varda’s documentary focuses on modern-day gleaners, allowing these marginalised people speak for themselves and address everything from world politics to personal tragedies, whilst Varda herself questions her own morality in the process.

Part social critique, part travelogue, this eccentric and eye-opening documentary is an unsentimental celebration of human resilience and how we should look out for those who survive on the margins of society and listen to their stories without judgement.

“Of all the movies I’ve seen in the past several years, this is one of the ones I love the most”

Mati’s parents – Gabriele, a veterinarian and Paul, a surveyor, are firmly established and only have to finalize the last work on the construction of their new house. But when Mati meets Carla, her world becomes unstable. The encounter with the independent girl shows Mati who she could really be: alive and open, and very different from her competitive, demonstratively cool friends. To complicate things further, Mati‘s best friend Sebastian falls in love with her and wants her to change from buddy to lover. Will Mati now lose her place in her male circle of friends? In the meantime, the world of her parents also threatens to break apart. Gabriele discovers Paul’s best-kept secret. Will the situation pass, or should she confront him directly? Paul, too, is increasingly under pressure to face his very own truth. In the end, all characters face the same decision: what counts for more, seeming or being?

Event Details

Part coming-of-age story and part slow-burn thriller, this 2018 film introduces us to Sadie, a troubled teen who lives in a trailer park with her mother, while longing for her absent soldier father. She might not stop at anything to get what she wants. Megan Griffiths’ Sadie has been called “disquieting,” “absorbing” and populated with characters “on the darker edges of their lives.”

SADIE is the story of a 13-year-old girl who lives at Shady Plains Trailer Park with her mother while her father serves repeated tours in the military. Her dad has broken many promises that he will return, but Sadie (Sophia Mitri Schloss) idolizes him and believes in his cause, so she waits, preserving his place on the home-front.

Less patient is her mom, Rae (Melanie Lynskey,) who stopped receiving letters or calls from her husband years ago. She has been half-heartedly dating the counselor from Sadie’s school, Bradley (Tony Hale,) but it isn’t until a mysterious newcomer moves in next door that she truly considers moving on. Rae’s best friend is Carla (Danielle Brooks,) who works at the local bar and has a penchant for unavailable men. Danielle’s son Francis (Keith L. Williams,) and her retired father Deak (Tee Dennard) are Sadie’s charge and confidante, respectively. Francis, bullied at school, relies on Sadie for protection and guidance. Deak, stationed outside with his whittling, connects with Sadie’s old soul. The arrival of Cyrus (John Gallagher, Jr.) disrupts the balance of life at Shady Plains. When Sadie sees the relationship developing between Cyrus and Rae, she pledges to come between them, whatever it takes.

Sadie has always tested boundaries. Mainly at school, where she is in a protracted battle with Francis’s bully and a war of wits with her teachers. But with her new mission she pushes into new territory she is not equipped to handle. Cyrus becomes the enemy, and if she’s learned nothing else from the world she inhabits, it’s that the enemy deserves no mercy.

About the filmmaker: Megan Griffiths (Writer/Director) is a writer/director working in film and television. She recently directed two episodes of the Duplass Brothers’ HBO anthology series ROOM 104 and an episode of the Epix comedy GRAVES, starring Nick Nolte. Prior to this, she wrote and directed the thriller THE NIGHT STALKER, starring Lou Diamond Phillips as serial killer Richard Ramirez.

Her film LUCKY THEM starring Toni Collette, Thomas Haden Church and Johnny Depp premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival and was distributed by IFC Films. Megan’s film EDEN, based on the true story of a young woman captured into the world of human trafficking, was a breakout at SXSW 2012, winning the Emergent Narrative Director Award, the Audience Award for Narrative Feature as well as a Special Jury Prize for lead actress Jamie Chung. Megan’s feature THE OFF HOURS, distributed by Film Movement, premiered at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival.

Megan was the recipient of the 2012 Stranger Genius Award for Film, was named the 2013 City Arts Film Artist of the Year, and received the 2015 Seattle Mayor’s Award for Film. She is the vice president of the board of the Northwest Film Forum and is an active advocate for sustainable production.

“I’ve had friends who’ve been very important in my life. In L’Une chante, l’autre pas I’ve told their story as if it were a novel.”

After a hiatus from making feature films to focus on having a family, Varda’s return to filmmaking was largely inspired by her involvement in the French Women’s Movement of the 1970s, which left a profound affect on her. In order to share her story she chose to present the film as a musical, a genre more associated with the films of her late husband, Jacques Demy.

This feminist decade-spanning musical is a chronicle of the friendship between Suzanne (Thérèse Liotard) and Pauline (Valérie Mairesse), who first meet in 1962 when Suzanne, who is already a mother of two, decides to get an abortion. The film then jumps ten years ahead, finding the pair at very different stages in their lives, both in regards to personal growth and social change.

Event Details

Director: Chloé Zhao
Starring: Tim Jandreau, Brady Jandreau, Lilly Jandreau
Duration: 104 min

Chloé Zhao made an impressive directorial debut with Songs My Brothers Taught Me (CINECITY 2015) set among Native American Indians living on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. Born in Beijing but raised in the UK and USA, Zhao’s second feature, The Rider, is once again set in South Dakota and focuses on the broken dreams of a young cowboy. Performed by non-actors and partly based on their real-life experiences, The Rider is a superbly constructed portrait of frustrated youth and American cowboy culture, beautifully shot by cinematographer Joshua James Richards (God’s Own Country).

Brady Jandreau plays a semi-autobiographical version of himself, coming to terms with a near fatal rodeo accident that leaves him unable to ride again on the advice of his doctors. Struggling to leave the sport he loves and the horses and riders of a tight-knit community, Jandreau is the soulful presence at the heart of Zhao’s wonderful, sensitive and emotionally gripping drama.
