Massi, Addi, Lylybeth and Joy are four non-binary artists at a turning point in their careers on Brussels' burgeoning drag scene. While this chosen family is close-knit and supportive, their blood family often has difficulty understanding their identity and their craft. Many truths and emotions remain unspoken. Their shows, sometimes very funny, sometimes very dark, often both, are directly inspired by their daily struggles. The stage allows them to express their gender identities. It's also their livelihood and the place where they draw the energy to force their way into our society. As their performances become increasingly notable, a quest for identity and artistic recognition takes shape. These artists aspire to something essential: the need to embrace who you are and, above all, to be accepted for who you are.

When Bradford City FC met Lincoln City on 11 May 1985 for the final game of the season, what everyone hoped to remember was the carnival atmosphere in the stadium. But what happened at the end of a goalless first half was instead the stuff of nightmares. A fire, believed to have been started by a discarded cigarette or match, engulfed one of the old wooden stands. 56 lives were lost, and the event made headlines around the world as the city and the nation struggled to confront the enormity of the loss to Bradford. The prime minister, Margaret Thatcher, travelled to the scene of the disaster as the media looked to someone to blame, and a senior judge was appointed to launch an inquiry. The findings would have a long-lasting impact on safety at football matches in Britain and around the world. With access to survivors, family members of those lost and emergency service first responders, this film aims to relive a largely forgotten tragedy

The secret of Alberto Portera (David Plaza, 2025) is a selection of fragments of an unpublished filmmaker so far: Alberto Portera. Neurosurgeon by profession, but interested in the artistic gesture, to which he dedicated numerous articles and essays, he recorded with his camera the artists of the group El Paso in action, in his daily artistic activity (Millares, Saura, Hernández Mompó, Canogar...). But he also recorded filming of Carlos Saura, clinical essays, trips, performances... Alberto Portera presents himself to us as a missing link between the tradition of classic documentary and amateur art and essay cinema. These films have recently been restored and digitized by the Juan March Foundation.

Airports, detention centres, sea containers. Slow, roaming shots linger on places of passage and confinement, where movement is measured and controlled. Fragments of stories, words passed from one person to another. Encounters along the way reveal different ways of seeing, different ways of understanding. Voices emerge, sharing stories from those held inside Brook House, a large immigration centre on London’s outskirts. Through shifting perspectives, the film examines migration, control, and the space between perception and reality.
A love letter to the UK Caribbean diaspora, exploring black histories, physical spaces and notions of community. The site of the Keskidee Centre, a pioneering Afro-Caribbean cultural centre, is now occupied by luxury apartments. The closure of such valued spaces where people could gather and organise coincided with the rise of a political discourse which led to a lack of documentation of Black Caribbean pasts. Working on the surface of the film image itself – making use of a rostrum camera and optical printer – filmmaker Rhea Storr reflects on the histories that remain trapped in the archive and how capitalism has affected our connection to the past.
