ORWELL: 2+2=5

Raoul Peck

  • 120 minutes
  • 2025
  • English
  • November 9

    From acclaimed director Raoul Peck (I Am Not Your Negro), ORWELL: 2+2=5 is the definitive feature-length documentary on visionary author George Orwell. ”Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past...," wrote Orwell in his novel, 1984. Today, the "newspeak" of authoritarian rule is alive and well and in unexpected places, from the rise of AI Chatbot to the Russian propaganda machine, from the marketing webs of commercial metaverses to the political banning of books in the Southern United States. Peck's ORWELL uses George Orwell's life, work and legacy as a maverick iconoclastic writer to jam the signals of the algorithms gone rogue which, in the name of personal freedom, threaten to close our minds to a greater possibility. Brilliant, exhilarating and the boldest documentary anyone could make right now.

IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT

Jafar Panahi

  • 105 minutes

  • Persian with English subtitles
  • November 14 - 16

    Cannes Film Festival Palme d'Or winner!

    Vahid, an unassuming mechanic, has a chance encounter with Eghbal, a man he strongly suspects to be his former sadistic jailhouse captor. Panicked, Vahid gathers several former prisoners, all abused by that same captor, to try and confirm Eghbal's identity. As the bickering group drives around Tehran with the captive, they must confront how far to take matters into their own hands with their presumed tormentor. From master filmmaker Jafar Panahi comes a searing moral thriller that engages with complex ideas about the uncertainty of the truth and the choice between revenge and mercy, as Panahi turns his personal dissonance into a profound and galvanizing work of art.

DIE MY LOVE

Lynne Ramsay

  • 2025
  • English
  • November 21 - 23

    From renowned filmmaker Lynne Ramsay, DIE MY LOVE is a visceral and uncompromising portrait of a woman engulfed by love and madness. Anchored by a ferocious, tour de force performance from Jennifer Lawrence, and co-starring Robert Pattinson. Grace (Lawrence) and her partner Jackson (Pattinson), have recently moved into an old house deep in the country. With ambitions to write The Great American Novel, Grace settles into her new environment, and the couple welcome a baby soon after. However, with Jackson frequently – and suspiciously – absent, and the pressures of domestic life starting to weigh on her, Grace begins to unravel, leaving a path of destruction in her wake. Based on Ariana Harwicz’s celebrated novel and co-starring Sissy Spacek, LaKeith Stanfield and Nick Nolte, Ramsay marks her eagerly-awaited return with this fearless new cinematic vision that charts the complexity of love and how it can change and transform over time.

PUT YOUR SOUL ON YOUR HAND AND WALK

Sepideh Farsi

  • 113 minutes
  • 2025
  • English and Arabic with English Subtitles
  • November 28 - 30

    PUT YOUR SOUL ON YOUR HAND AND WALK offers an intimate, first-hand perspective on life under siege in Gaza, captured through video calls between director Sepideh Farsi and 25-year-old Palestinian photojournalist and poet Fatma Hassona. Combining raw immediacy with deep humanity, the film captures daily life during the conflict through the eyes and unwaveringly optimistic presence of Fatma, a talented photographer whose generation is trapped in an endless cycle of war, famine, and resistance. Her conversations with Farsi bring us into the heart of the conflict, even while their physical distance underscores the dire situation inside Gaza. PUT YOUR SOUL ON YOUR HAND AND WALK is an essential document that now stands as a heartfelt memorial and final testament: Fatma and her family were tragically killed by a targeted Israeli airstrike on April 16, one day after the film was announced as a selection of the Cannes Film Festival.
