Hardly Bear To Look At You
Director: Huck Melnick
Year: 2009
Love isn't blind, just extremely short-sighted. Hardly Bear To Look At You takes an unflinching look at the addictive effect unrequited love can have on both parties. A myopic filmmaker tries unsuccessfully to seduce an enigmatic street performer, escorting her from London to Paris by train and then back again in her antique Citroen van. When he casts her in a film set in Cannes, his romantic obsession grows, leading to a conclusion that will force a re-evaluation of all that has gone before.
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.
