About Sarah
Director: Elisa Miller
Year: 2014
A lyrical account of artist Sarah Lucas' life over the course of a year. During this time, film-maker Elisa Miller enjoyed unparalleled access to the artist. Spanning the period from Lucas' trip to Mexico in spring 2012 to the Venice Biennial 2013, the film also traces her daily movements at home in Suffolk and London, and her encounters with many of the figures who have become central to her life and work. The film charts a prolific and pivotal chapter in Lucas' career.
Adlais
Director: Alex Darby, George Leith, Sophie Mei Birkin
Year: 2026
Adlais (Echo) weaves Welsh language folklore and histories through their shared subjects of poetry and drowning – and asks whether we’re listening to the past as it surfaces today.
The End of Times
Director: Luca Anzalone
Year: 2026
Caught between her indigenous Buryat roots—where art is a shamanic window between worlds—and a Western market that treats culture as a commodity, artist Yuma Radne constructs a monumental canvas to confront the psychological distortions of colonization at the edge of an irreversible era. "Either you make art, or you suffer. It’s like a curse." For painter Yuma Radne, the act of creation is not an aesthetic choice, but an ancestral code carried in the blood. Moving from a remote Siberian village to the high-stakes European art world, Yuma finds herself navigating a surreal landscape where sacred cultural identity is rapidly converted into a luxury product. Through intimate studio dialogues and raw philosophical reflections, the film captures the gruelling physical and mental labour behind her graduation masterpiece, The End of Times. Centred around a gargantuan erupting booze (a traditional Buryat dumpling) mutated into an absurd, monumental symbol of a colonised and erased national identity, the film transcends a typical artist portrait. It becomes a vital, cosmic meditation on why humanity continues to create art in the face of systemic collapse—and a powerful testament to an indigenous culture refusing to be reduced to a souvenir.
