A mother, caught in a moral quandary, discovers that her prodigal son might not be the man she had believed him to be.
Rebecca Zlotowski’s new film stands out for its perspective, that of a single woman at an age when it becomes much harder to make lifelong friends or to enter into entangled relationships that yield deep histories.
An auspicious debut that combines political commentary and an intimate character study with flecks of surrealism.
In Nana Mensah’s winning and heartfelt debut film, you can go home again; part of you never left.
A beautifully shot coming-of-age story set on the Croatian coast that makes some sharp observations about the perennial tensions within a family.
Director Nathalie Álvarez Mesén has set herself an imposing task with her debut film: conveying the complexity of her title character without resorting to histrionics or melodrama.
Director Charlotte Wells has struck gold with her young discovery, Frankie Corio, who delivered one of the best and most lived-in performances in the festival’s entire lineup.
An immersion into an almost hermetically sealed world that is so detailed and uncomfortable that parts of it feel like a documentary.
