Uproar
2023 ∙ New Zealand ∙ English
This drama-comedy featuring Julian Dennison is based on the events and aftermath of the infamous 1981 Springbok Tour that divided New Zealand.
“Funny, poignant and emotional, this thoroughly entertaining '80s-set dramedy deserves to be seen by Kiwis of all ages.” – Stuff
Singin’ in the Rain
1952 ∙ United States ∙ English
Don and Lina are accomplished silent film actors who have often worked together. However, with the gradual transition of silent films to talkies, they face their share of struggles.
One of the first 25 films selected by the U.S. Library of Congress for preservation in the National Film Registry for being culturally and historically significant, and ranked the eighth-best film of all time by Empire.
Olga
2021 ∙ Switzerland ∙ French/Ukrainian
While in exile in Switzerland, a 15-year-old Ukrainian gymnast prepares for the European Gymnastics Championships when mass protests begin in Kyiv.
“Shot with a documentary-style naturalism and propulsive restlessness that mirrors Olga’s ferocious drive, this is a terrific, timely feature debut.” –The Guardian
