L'Assenza
Director: Jonathan Romney
Year: 2013
A man becomes obsessed by his own double in an Italian film from the early 1960s. In the tradition of supernatural tales of possession, L'Assenza (The Absence) is a film about the fascination that cinema exerts on us - a fascination implicitly narcissistic, morbid, even dangerous.
No Women No Children
Director: Akporé Uzoh
Year: 2026
The aftermath of a sexual assault (rape). Exploring the deep-felt consequences for all involved. At its heart an epic story of a couple's fight for the survival of their love.
Elegy for the Lost
Director: William Hong-xiao Wei
Year: 2025
Through the psychoanalytic and introspective voiceover of a young post-pandemic Chinese migrant in Europe, the film interweaves her private memories of intimacy with public narratives of resistance. As her reflections unfold, she and her community navigate secrecy, repression, survival, looming precarity, and displacement, all while confronting the personal cost of existing in a world that demands their silence.
