All We Imagine As Light
PUBLIC SNEAK PREVIEW - Friday, 13 Dec
Directed by Payal Kapadia
Award-winning filmmaker Payal Kapadia (A Night of Knowing Nothing) directs this radiant romantic drama, the first Indian film to receive the Grand Prix at Cannes. The film follows two nurses sharing an apartment: the compassionate Prabha, whose absent husband is working in Germany, and the younger Anu, who has a secret relationship with a young Muslim man. Both are looking for love but instead find sisterhood in the vibrant, heaving 20 million plus populace of Mumbai. Nurse Prabha’s routine is troubled when she receives an unexpected gift from her estranged husband. Her younger roommate, Anu, tries in vain to find a spot in the city to be intimate with her boyfriend. A trip to a beach town allows them to find a space for their desires to manifest. Kapadia’s narrative debut is a delicate ode to female bonding set against the backdrop of the sprawling metropolis of Mumbai, which plays as a pulsating, vivid part in the story.
Winner of the Grand Prix at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival

"This is a glorious film.” - Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian
"Few films have ever so beautifully captured the lonesome romance of Mumbai after dark." - Jessica Kiang, Variety
"Filmed with exquisite elegance and precision, All We Imagine As Light surprises for its subtly unconventional and even subversive approach to visual storytelling and confirms Kapadia as one of the most singular and compelling voices of contemporary cinema."

There's Still Tomorrow
STARTING 28 Nov
Directed by Paola Cortellesi
The highest grossing film of 2023 in Italy, There’s Still Tomorrow is a vibrant, moving drama starring Paola Cortellesi in her directorial debut. Delia (Cortellesi) lives in a working-class community in Rome in the late 1940s - a city divided between the positive thrust of liberation and the miseries of the war that has just ended - with her domineering husband, Ivano (Valerio Mastandrea), their three children, and father-in-law.
She rises above the daily challenges of family life; has a best friend with whom to share moments of levity, and dreams for her daughter Marcella to one day have a better life. Delia accepts her fate - the good with the bad - until one day a mysterious letter arrives. Shot in resplendent black and white, in the style of post-World War II Italian neorealist filmmakers, There’s Still Tomorrow is a critically acclaimed, bittersweet and empowering tale tinged with a comedic irony.
"An unashamed, old-fashioned melodrama develops into a more considered tale of small victories on the road to female empowerment." Screen International

Head South
STARTING 14 NOV
Directed by Johnathan Ogilvie
Christchurch, Aotearoa New Zealand, 1979. During a fortnight with his world-weary father, Angus is drawn to the underground post-punk music scene. With the support of his friend Kirsten, Angus navigates self doubt, derision and a family tragedy to take the stage for the first time.
Drawing from his own experience growing up in Christchurch in the 1970s and ’80s, Jonathan Ogilvie’s warmly engaging film delves beneath the city’s prim and proper exterior to portray its nascent post-punk underground. A scene which would later birth the record label Flying Nun, that would go on take South Island music to the world.
“It had a lightness to it that is really cool and really rare.” - Dominic Corry, RNZ
“It’s Bennett who steals the show, turning the traditional “female best-friend” into a complex character – and one with plenty of chutzpah and charisma.” - James Croot, Stuff
Ōtautahi, Christchurch, 1979. A post-punk soundtrack. Head South captures all these magical moments in one feature-length film. - Stuff/Your Weekend
