Night Burns Like Cigarettes
Director: Elisabeth Felson
Year: 2022
Why are we so afraid of the dark that we need to brighten the world around us? Shot at night on the "cult" Red Monochrome with Camerimage Winner DOP Mate Herbai, NIGHT BURNS LIKE CIGARETTES approaches Light Pollution through our intimate relation to darkness, torn between love & fear. An anti-consumerist ballad in the night, it has Lily Cole as a Narrator, and British-Zimbabwean singer and dancer Kwaye.
Spacewoman
Director: Hannah Berryman
Year: 2024
A landmark feature documentary about astronaut Eileen Collins, the first woman to pilot and command the Space Shuttle. Eileen’s incredible journey starts with her smalltown beginnings, sees her smash through many glass ceilings, and culminates in four dramatic space shuttle missions, the last being possibly the most dangerous and most important of them all. At its heart the film is the moving human drama of one family, where a mother’s extraordinary career takes us straight to the big philosophical question of what is the level of acceptable risk in human endeavour? This film celebrates Commander Collins’ trailblazing NASA career which opened the way for women to become spacecraft pilots and commanders, and proved a perfect riposte to a previous generation of male astronauts who thought there was no place for women to lead the way in space.
