    HAMNET

    William Shakespeare (Paul Mescal) falls for the free-spirited Agnes (Jessie Buckley). Their whirlwind romance leads to marriage and three children, but as Will’s theatrical ambitions draw him to London, Agnes remains behind to manage the household. When tragedy strikes, their bond is deeply tested – but through grief and resilience, their journey inspires the creation of Shakespeare’s timeless masterpiece, Hamlet. Based on the New York Times best-selling novel, Oscar winning-winning director Chloé Zhao directs a powerful story of love and loss, featuring an Oscar winning performance from Jessie Buckley.  Breaking hearts and mending them in one fell swoop, ‘Hamnet’ speculates on the inspiration behind Shakespeare’s masterpiece with palpable emotional force thanks to Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal’s astonishing performances.

    “A devastating exploration of loss and creative alchemy. Jessie Buckley, Paul Mescal and Chloé Zhao capture just how art channels our emotions in a mystical period drama about a death in the Shakespeare family” – . BFI

    SATURDAY 4 APRIL

    OFFICIAL COMPETITION

    Penélope Cruz and Antonio Banderas star in this Spanish film about two egomaniacs commissioned to make a movie together – a sharp comedy skewering wealth, art, and pride.  Banderas’ film star and Martínez’s stage actor vie for the attention of Cruz’s wayward director in this filmmaking satire. Filmmaker Lola is approached by an ageing business mogul  to make a film, his legacy for the world, the only condition for casting was that she choose ‘the best’ – she pits acclaimed snobbish actor Ivan against handsome superficial screen icon Felix, believing that the tension between the two can only help the film’s dynamic. She couldn’t be more right.

     “A delectable, riotous farce – Antonio Banderas and Penélope Cruz to deliver a comedy that zealously skewers everyone in its path – not least Banderas himself.” – BFI
    “It shows us art for ego’s sake, and it has a lot of wickedly spiteful fun doing so” – The Observer

    SATURDAY 18 APRIL 

    THE ROSES

    A black comedy starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Olivia Colman starring as a warring couple. Life seems easy for picture-perfect couple Ivy and Theo Rose: successful careers, a loving marriage, great kids. But beneath the façade of their supposedly ideal life, a storm is brewing. As Theo’s career nose-dives while Ivy’s own ambitions take off, a tinderbox of fierce competition and hidden resentment ignites in this wonderfully wry, dark comedy.

    “Colman and Cumberbatch are sublimely well matched. We adore them as a couple almost as much as we enjoy them as the bitterest of foes” – The Observer
    “‘Love is great. But then one of you will be dog-tired and doing the bins” – The Guardian

    THE BIG HIT

    Based on a true story, ‘A Big Hit’ is a warm French drama about an actor working with a bunch of hard-boiled prisoners to produce a theatrical Beckett play. Etienne, an endearing but unemployed actor, runs a theatre workshop in a prison, where he collects an unlikely troupe of prisoners to stage Beckett's play’ Waiting for Godot’. When he is allowed to take the convicts on a successful tour outside of prison, a unique relationship grows between these ad hoc actors and their director. But soon comes the final performance in Paris. Will their last night together be the biggest hit of them all?

    “A madcap idea, but not entirely impossible, and Merad is wonderful as a scrambling, middle-aged thespian desperate to make it work.” – Sunday Independent
    ”Impressive French prison comedy-drama, based on the true story of a drama teacher who worked in a high-security jail, this film crackles with charm and nervous energy” – The Guardian

    A COMPLETE UNKNOWN

    The Bob Dylan biopic, nominated for 8 Oscars. Against the backdrop of a vibrant music scene and tumultuous cultural upheaval, an enigmatic 19-year-old from Minnesota arrives with his guitar and revolutionary talent, destined to change the course of American music. He forges intimate relationships with music icons of Greenwich Village on his meteoric rise, culminating in a ground-breaking and controversial performance that reverberates worldwide. Timothée Chalamet stars and sings as Bob Dylan in the electric true story behind the rise of one of the most iconic singer-songwriters in history.

    “Timothée Chalamet’s Bob Dylan is an electric revelation – a biopic follows the rise of the era-defining star with Chalamet brilliantly embodying his shapeshifting allure” – The Guardian
    “Dylan’s greatest hits have always been heirlooms: somehow just there. Amid the recreated past, the movie restores a sense of how seismic they would originally have been… New ears and life-long fans may both relish the raw novelty” – Financial Times

    BLACK BAG

    ‘Black Bag’ is a gripping spy drama, starring Cate Blanchett and Michael Fassbender, directed by Steven Sodebergh, about legendary intelligence agents George Woodhouse and his beloved wife Kathryn. When she is suspected of betraying the nation, George faces the ultimate test – loyalty to his marriage or his country. ‘Black Bag’ is slang for the place where secrets are kept – and where married people find the truth about their spouse is hidden. Intrigue in marital espionage… Steven Soderbergh’s spy drama sends two married agents after a mole, who might turn out to be one of them.

    “An enjoyably grown-up spy film—measured, stylish, and more interested in secrets between people than global stakes… there’s plenty to admire in the confident craft and performances” – Screen Realm.

    “Sleek in design and spiked with dry wit, Black Bag is an exemplary espionage caper that lets movie stars like Cate Blanchett and Michael Fassbender do what they do best — light up the screen.” – Rotten Tomatoes

    THE BALLAD OF WALLIS ISLAND

    The Ballad of Wallis Island is a 2025 British comedy-drama film, written by Tim Key and Tom Basden, starring Carey Mulligan, about an eccentric lottery winner who lives alone on a remote island, who tries to make his fantasies come true by getting his favourite musicians to perform at his home. Herb McGwyer—formerly half of folk duo McGwyer/ Mortimer—arrives on the remote Wallis Island off the coast of Wales, where eccentric widowed super-fan Charles Heath has contracted him to play a show before a select private audience. Charles brings Herb to stay at his home, presenting his £500,000 fee as a suitcase of cash —and eventually admits that he will be the show’s sole audience.  Herb is surprised by the arrival of Nell, the other half of McGwyer/Mortimer,  who he has not seen in years, and old tensions resurface as Charles tries desperately to salvage his dream gig. You’ll leave wanting your own island, your own gig and your own lock of Carey Mulligan’s hair.

    “Funny, melancholy yarn of a folk duo reunited by oddball super-fan” – The Guardian

    “A bittersweet, cardigan-clad small treasure of a film and a balm for battered souls” – The Observer

A bittersweet,  empathetic portrait – we meet the directors, the performers, the people who flock to each show, this is affectionate and funny filmmaking, reflecting the eccentricities of English entertainment.  A European love letter to Great Britain.

    Penélope Cruz and Antonio Banderas star as two egomaniacs commissioned by a millionaire to make a movie in this sharp comedy skewering wealth, art, and pride. Filmmaker Lola Cuevas (Cruz), is given carte blanche over the casting of the movie, and pits together acclaimed (but snobbish) ‘actor’ Ivan against handsome (but superficial) screen icon Felix, believing that the tension between the two will help the film’s dynamic. She couldn’t be more right.

     “Penélope Cruz is a deadpan dream in wicked film-world satire. Two actors vie for the attention of their autocratic director in this hilarious Spanish-language skewering of the movie-making business” – The Guardian
