Call Back in an Hour

Synopsis

Borrowing the speech bubble aesthetics of a comic book, a fresh take on the female assassin story.
Kora is a deadly but also lonely hit-woman, living in London. By day, she plays the Cello and teaches kids how to play music. By night, she eliminates targets, following instructions from her handler - Andre - a voice on the other end of a telephone. Kora is looking for a way to change her life when a violent coincidence presents itself. A local underworld mobster who has heard the tale of the mortally dangerous woman gets hold of Andre’s phone number, and manages to set a trap for Kora. It’s a nasty surprise but it's a chance to get out, and she takes it.

A young man, sits alone in a cafe, deep in thought. A bouquet of disregarded roses in front of him. The Game

Director: Blaize Mott

Year: 2026

Donald, a lonely young man desperate to improve his dating life, hires a manipulative pick-up artist, Charles, to teach him how to meet and attract women. Over the course of one night in London, Donald is pulled into a world of performance, pressure and control, where confidence becomes coercion and desire begins to blur with power. What began as a harmless lesson on love transforms into a night where the methods he is instructed to use to achieve his goal are far darker than he could have ever imagined.

Ken Russell's The Devils Ken Russell's The Devils

Director: Ken Russell

Year: 1971

A dramatized historical account of the rise and fall of Urbain Grandier, a 17th-century Roman Catholic priest accused of witchcraft following the supposed possessions in Loudun, France; it also focuses on Sister Jeanne des Anges, a sexually repressed nun who inadvertently incites the accusations. An enduring masterpiece of cinema, KEN RUSSELL’S THE DEVILS is a prescient epic of obsession and corruption – and a defining work of art from seminal filmmaker Ken Russell. Assembled from the original camera negative, this new 4K restoration presents Ken Russell’s definitive vision of THE DEVILS by referencing the edit he privately constructed in 2004. KEN RUSSELL’S THE DEVILS is the uncut and unfiltered theatrical experience that Russell always envisioned.
