From Academy Award-nominated director Joshua Oppenheimer (The Act of Killing, The Look of Silence) comes a poignant and deeply human musical about a family that survived the end

of the world.

Twenty-five years after environmental collapse left the Earth uninhabitable, Mother, Father and Son are confined to their palatial bunker, where they struggle to maintain hope and a sense of normalcy by clinging to the rituals of daily life—until the arrival of a stranger, Girl, upends their happy routine. Son, a naïve twenty-something who has never seen the outside world, is fascinated by the newcomer, and suddenly the delicate bonds of blind optimism that have held this wealthy clan together begin to fray. As tensions rise, their seemingly idyllic existence starts to crumble, with long-repressed feelings of remorse and resentment threatening to destroy

the family’s delicate balance. But their reckoning with difficult truths also points to a different way forward, one based on acceptance, love, and a capacity for change.

An urgent and unforgettable cautionary tale, The End stars Academy Award winner Tilda Swinton (Michael Clayton), Academy Award nominee Michael Shannon (Nocturnal Animals,

Revolutionary Road), George MacKay (1917) and Moses Ingram (Lady in the Lake, The Queen’s Gambit). The screenplay is by Oppenheimer and Rasmus Heisterberg (A Royal Affair), with

songs by Joshua Schmidt (music) and Oppenheimer (lyrics).

Just Another Girl on the I.R.T, dir. Leslie Harris, 1992

Chantel Mitchell is a 17-year-old African-American high school junior who lives in Brooklyn, New York. Chantel is very smart, but her sharp tongue, abundant ego, and occasional naivete

undermine her efforts to achieve her ultimate dream: to leave her poor neighborhood, go to college, and eventually become a doctor. Throughout the film, Chantel breaks the fourth wall

and explains that she wants to be seen as more than just another teenage black girl on the subway.

Her dream is tested by her constant clashes with her school's administration, along with her romantic involvement with her seemingly rich boyfriend Tyrone. Lacking a proper sex education, Chantel ends up pregnant and must contend with her future.

Wunderkind director Gints Zilbalodis has taken the animation world by storm with his beautifully crafted sophomore feature Flow, which has received a multitude of awards and nominations to date, including the Best Animated Feature win at the 2025 Academy Awards and two BAFTA nominations.

The mystical world he creates in Flow is in peril. There are traces of human inhabitants, but they are now nowhere to be seen as water begins to flood the landscape.

Along the way they cross paths with a lemur, obsessed with collecting shiny objects, a boisterous and excitable dog and a stoic, mysterious secretary bird.

Margy Kinmonth’s feature documentary shines a light on the trailblazing role of women war artists, on the front lines round the world, championing the female perspective on conflict through art and asking: when it's life or death, what do women see that men don't?  Traditionally a male domain, war art by women has been largely unrecognised.

Artists featured include Dame Rachel Whiteread, Zhanna Kadyrova, Maggi Hambling, Assil Diab, Dame Laura Knight, Marcelle Hanselaar, Cornelia Parker, Maya Lin, Shirin Neshat and Lee Miller.

In 1960, a young Irish woman named Edna O’Brien wrote a sexually frank debut novel, The Country Girls. She became a literary sensation, writing for The New Yorker, delivering provocative interviews, and authoring screenplays.  

Her success enraged her writer husband and made her a pariah in her native Ireland, where her  books were banned and burned. She would make her home in London, where she conducted  numerous love affairs, hosted star-studded parties, and made and lost a fortune.  

In July 2024, Edna passed away and this film provides a final testimony from her, aged 93, as  she reflects upon her extraordinary life for filmmaker Sinéad O’Shea’s camera.  

Granting the director access to her personal journals — read aloud in the film by the Oscar nominated Irish actress Jessie Buckley — and with additional perspectives offered from Gabriel  Byrne, Walter Mosley and an array of renowned writers, Edna does not shy from any subject.

50 years after winning Eurovision, this film charts the story of ABBA's battle for critical and commercial success as they rose to become one of the defining pop groups of the 70s. Told mostly in their own words and with rare and unseen archive material drawn from all around the world, it captures how the band had to fight to ditch the tag of Eurovision-winner to become global superstars in the face of constant backlash from the musical establishment. It charts their journey to chart dominance through Europe, Australia and the UK, and also the struggle to conquer America. It explores the band’s personal challenges, which culminated in divorce and led them to create one of the great ‘break up’ songs of all time in The Winner Takes It All. Along the way, the film delves into the fascinating connection between ABBA’s distinctive style and approach to music and the politically volatile times in which they lived. These strands are woven together to cast fresh light on a band that against the odds created a unique sound, defied the critics and delivered a musical legacy that endures to this day.
