  • Ghost in the Machine - Absolute must-watch deep dive into so-called AI

    Writing for the Sundance Institute website, Erik Adams calls Valerie Veatch’s Ghost in the Machine "the scariest movie playing at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival". He’s not wrong. It’s not only scary, it’s also rage-inducing. Veatch traces the red line that links the current "AI " tools and the... continue

    Aside from our recently reviewed Palestine 36, the BFI London Film Festival marked the festival run tailend for a number of films from the Arab world. Highlights include Erige Sehiri’s Promised Sky, a rare, necessary, and beautifully dramatised account of migrant women from the Ivory Coast living... continue
  • Palestine 36 - Harrowing and all too rare retelling of the...

    Palestinian cinema is distinctly prolific. The more efforts are made to erase Palestinians as a people and Palestine as a slice of West Asian land, the more urgent the storytelling becomes. 2025 has already seen a number of much hyped premieres and releases, but the novelty this year seems to be... continue

Court de la semaine : El Empleo - Santiago ’Bou’ Grasso

par Lucile Bourliaud
Derrière sa ligne claire et ses couleurs douces, le court métrage de la semaine, film d’animation de Santiago ’Bou’ Grasso, jette un regard sombre sur notre société et dénonce nos servitudes volontaires. Un film de 2008 qui n’a rien perdu de sa force. Un petit réveil à l’effigie d’un bonhomme souriant égrène tranquillement les secondes. C’est un jour comme les autres dans la vie du (…) Lire la suite »

Vinil Verde by Kleber Mendonca Filho

by Jack Wormell
Vinil Verde (Green Vinyl) unfolds like a modern day Struwwelpeter, but in the place of didactic morals the film creeps along with a strange silence, literally and in its authorial voice, leaving you not entirely sure what to make of it. The (…) Continue Reading »

Q and A with Anton Saunders, dir. of Fourever

by Abla Kandalaft
Anton Saunders directed and starred in Fourever, screened at the Raindance Film Festival (2014). Anton’s character Johnny, a man struggling to move on from his past, organises a fancy dress soirée with friends he hasn’t seen in ten years.

Short of the Week: Joanna Quinn’s Britannia

by Abla Kandalaft, Lucile Bourliaud
This week’s short is an un-PC, explosive, speeded up history lesson: five minutes encapsulating a few centuries’ worth of British conquests. Joanna Quinn made a name for herself as an animator back in the 1980s, her cartoons and dark humour are (…) Continue Reading »

Court de la semaine : Britannia - Joanna Quinn

par Lucile Bourliaud
Le court métrage de la semaine nous offre un cours d’histoire en accéléré : cinq minutes pour retracer plusieurs centaines d’années de conquêtes britanniques. Le résultat, détonant, est tout sauf politiquement correct ! Joanna Quinn est un grand nom de l’animation anglaise. Son coup de crayon est immédiatement reconnaissable, tout comme son humour féroce qui sévit depuis les années 80. (…) Lire la suite »

    Behind the CIA’s overthrow of Iran’s Mossadegh - Coup 53 screenings in August

    This month sees another London run of the 2019 film Coup 53, now more topical than ever: With Iran and the world once again on the brink, COUP 53 feels less like history and more like a warning. In 1953, a military coup led by British MI6 backed by the CIA overthrew Iran’s democratically (…)
