Stephen Williams | USA | 2023 | tbc’

Inspired by the incredible true story of composer Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges. Saint-Georges was the illegitimate son of an African slave and a French plantation owner, Bologne, who rose to improbable heights in French society as a celebrated violinist-composer and fencer, complete with an ill-fated love affair and subsequent falling out with Marie Antoinette (played by Lucy Boynton) and her court. His complicated love life and the racism of the Ancien Régime highlight the need for change.

Reality

  • 12A
  • Directed by: Tina Satter
  • Cast: Sydney Sweeney, Marchánt Davis, Josh Hamilton

In June 3, 2017, 25-year-old former American intelligence specialist Reality Winner is confronted by FBI agents arriving at her home. Based on true events, the film’s dialogue is directly from the transcript of their tense, transfixing conversation.

Saturday afternoon, June 3, 2017. Twenty-five year old Reality Winner is confronted at her home by the FBI. A cryptic conversation begins and soon Reality's life starts to unravel. With all dialogue taken directly from the FBI’s transcript of the interrogation — alternately nail-biting and banal, darkly funny and surreal — we track one woman's experience of the U.S. government at work. And as more details of Reality’s life are revealed and more armed men arrive, a complex portrait emerges of an American millennial, yoga teacher, and veteran under siege. REALITY examines truth, power and the U.S. legal system through the lens of one intimate, disconcerting and very real encounter, provoking conversations that endure long after the final frame.

"In its elegant simplicity, its formal daring and superbly subtle and controlled performances, Tina Satter’s movie is surely one of the best at the Berlin film festival: an eerily gripping true-life drama concerning people who look like elaborately reanimated, hyperreal ghosts from the past." Peter Bradshaw - The Guardian

During the last desperate days of WWII, a solitary prospector (Jorma Tommila) crosses paths with Nazis on a scorched-earth retreat in northern Finland. When the Nazis steal his gold, they quickly discover that they have just tangled with no ordinary miner. While there is no direct translation for the Finnish word "sisu", this legendary ex-commando will embody what sisu means: a white-knuckled form of courage and unimaginable determination in the face of overwhelming odds. And no matter what the Nazis throw at him, the one-man death squad will go to outrageous lengths to get his gold back – even if it means killing every last Nazi in his path.
