“Intimate and epic… Some of the more breathtaking scenery recently captured on screen… It’s as if Bham were conditioning the viewer for the type of patient, trance-like experience needed to reach a deeper level of being.”

Shambhala
“A brilliantly depraved family affair. “The Visitor’s” retelling makes the original look positively tame by comparison.”

The Visitor
"Ramata-Toulaye Sy’s Debut Film Is Striking And Sophisticated. It’s as a performance piece that it really gets under your skin."

Banel & Adama
“The film’s cool vibes and stylish visuals, accompanied by an eclectic, mainly electronic soundtrack, are striking. Louise Leroy, making a vivid impact in her screen debut. Dollops of deadpan humour in the Coens’ vein.”

The Other Laurens
"Gorgeous Senegalese debut, the combination of ethereal voiceover with nature at its most breathtaking evokes our cinema’s philosophical high priest, Terrence Malick.”

Banel & Adama
“Featuring a pitch-perfect performance from Lío Mehiel, Mutt feels like an important film in the history of LGBTQ+ cinema. Quietly emotional… rings soft and true without ever tugging at the heartstrings.”

Mutt
“Cinematically invigorating. Can be whiplash-inducing. A powerful central performance by Bold-Erdene. It’s hard to look away from him.”

City of Wind
"Modern and ancient Mongolia meet in a striking, poignant youth drama. A wise, precise, confident debut."
