The Pigs Underneath
Director: Charlie Dennis
Year: 2025
Residents from a tight-knit working class town are forced to meet a brutal quota just to survive. If they fail to meet it - they are punished with something far worse than death. This film offers a heightened approach on a widening gap between those who have unchecked power and increasing greed - and the struggling many. Socioeconomic exploitation and systemic class oppression. Official Selection Toronto International Film Festival 2025 Official Selection Tampere Film Festival 2026
My Heart Is Not Mine
Director: Salina Khan
Year: 2026
A hopelessly romantic bisexual author revisits the relationships that shaped his life while reflecting on his autobiographical book My Heart Is Not Mine. Torn between love, faith, and self-worth, he confronts the emotional imprint left by one man and two women who each claimed a piece of a heart that never fully belonged to him.
Nobody's Daughters
Director: Juan Pablo Bedoya
Year: 2026
Santo is a respected religious clockmaker and moneylender in his village. He exploits families in debt by using charm and kindness. When they cannot repay him, he persuades them to send their underage daughters to work as maids to pay off the debt. Ultimately, he sexually enslaves them and throws them out on the street when they become pregnant. His latest victim is Cira, an 11-year-old blackberry picker whose mother has pawned their home and land. After Santo's death, Maria Luisa, one of his victims, with the help of Fernando, his childhood friend and lawyer, fights for justice. After a long court battle, justice has finally been served, but not for everyone. Based on a real story.
