Fresh out of prison, she attempts to find a way to get to Nashville to realise her dreams, but her deep love for country music and her undeniable talent might not be enough to get her there. Screenwriter Nicole Taylor and director Tom Harper have crafted a sincere and intelligent drama that knowingly tugs at the heartstrings yet challenges our conventional understanding of heroines; Rose-Lynn is messy, imperfect and all the more human for it.

‘I’M SO ENTRANCED BY WHAT UNFOLDS IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA. IT SEEMS WONDERFULLY OUT OF MY CONTROL’ HIROKAZU KORE-EDA

In the wake of his Cannes triumph, it’s time to pay tribute to a master of contemporary Japanese cinema, says season programmer Alexander Jacoby In 2018, Hirokazu Kore-eda won the Cannes Palme d’Or for Shoplifters, capping a quarter-century career in feature filmmaking that has made him the most critically acclaimed and among the most widely distributed of contemporary Japanese live-action directors. The austerely beautiful style and haunting ambiguity of his fiction debut, Maborosi, announced a distinctive talent, while Nobody Knows and Still Walking cemented his reputation as an heir to Ozu and a chronicler of the modern Japanese family. But his characters range from the samurai of Hana to the blow-up doll come to life in Air Doll, and he proved as adept in the fantasy setting of After Life as in his realist dramas. This two-part retrospective celebrates the richness, diversity, beauty and humanity of Kore-eda’s cinema.

What does the Internet look like? How do filmmakers and artists visualise it on screen? Is that even possible? asks season programmer Anna Bogutskaya In the year when the internet turns 30 – and as part of our ongoing celebration of this through the umbrella project ‘Born Digital’ – we investigate how it has infiltrated moving- image culture and created new approaches to cinematic aesthetics. The films programmed here range from early techno-thrillers to contemporary desktop documentaries. Digital boogeymen, hidden corners of the dark web, message- board etiquette and political manipulations are explored by filmmakers who have taken the visual and narrative language that has emerged from online media platforms and adapted it to the big screen, creating new genres and subverting existing ones in the process. In ‘Raised by the Internet,’ the web is not the subject but the language.
