What begins as an intimate portrait of Russian independent journalists facing persecution by Putin’s regime takes a drastic turn when Russia starts a full-scale war in Ukraine and they are all forced into exile. The film offers a front row seat to how authoritarianism works and the lives of those who resist, which becomes all the more globally relevant every day.

Based on the memoir by Lidia Yuknavitch, the directorial debut of Kristen Stewart is a raw and unflinching portrait of survival, sexuality and self-invention. Told as a fluid memory wash, the story transforms her trauma into art. It is not only a chronicle of a woman becoming a writer, but a visceral journey through the wreckage and resilience of a life lived against the grain.

Oscar-nominated director Kaouther Ben Hania blends actual recordings and scripted performances to tell the devastating true story of Hind Rajab, a Palestinian girl trapped in a car under Israeli military fire, and the first responders who tried to save her. Nominated for the Academy Award® for Best International Feature Film

In a sci-fi-coded world where people have lost the desire to dream, rogue “fantasmers” stoke their imaginations and the film’s ever-morphing protagonist (Jackson Yee) veers through a series of genres, from Méliès-inflected silent fantasy to wartime thriller to con-artist buddy picture to millennial vampire romance — the latter depicted in one of Bi Gan’s customary, and ever astonishing, single takes. A monumental love letter to a century of cinema.

A perceptive study in familial dynamics and a carefully constructed triptych, Jim Jarmusch’s latest film concerns a group of adults coming to terms with their lost or aging parents, its subtle and quiet style carefully constructed to allow small details to accumulate — almost like flowers being carefully placed in three delicate arrangements. Its stellar cast includes Adam Driver, Charlotte Rampling, Tom Waits, Cate Blanchett and Indya Moore, among others. (Best Film winner at the Venice Film Festival)
