GIRLHOOD. DEAD MEN DRIVING. REVENGE AT ITS FINEST.

Burning through the asphalt of the American highway, Thelma & Louise is a sun-scorched outlaw odyssey of freedom, fury, and friendship that refuses to ask permission. What begins as a weekend getaway swerves into something far more dangerous - a girlhood road movie where the rules are rewritten, the men don’t stay in control, and justice is taken, not given.

Part buddy movie, part rebellion myth, part furious scream into the canyon, this is a story about what happens when women push back - and keep driving.

Sometimes justice comes with a gun in the glovebox.

Hosted by the Bloody Mary Film Club, this screening opens with an intro from writer, artist and academic Mary Morgan @msmarymorgan, whose PhD, I Want Revenge, explores violent women on screen and fantasies of vengeance.

Set in 1973 on an uninhabited island off the Cornish coast, a wildlife volunteer's daily observations of a rare flower turn into a metaphysical journey that forces her as well as the viewer to question what is real and what is nightmare.

Set for release in UK cinemas through on 24th April, 'LONDON'S LAST WILDERNESS' is director Pablo Behrens' visually stunning documentary. It's a call to action to protect and maintain the environment of the area surrounding the Greater Estuary. Seen through the eyes of a visitor from another planet, the film highlights the vast and diverse eco system of the Thames and its various tributaries. Pablo Behren's unique vision of an alien landscape was shot over a period of 4 years, day and night, and spanning all seasons from the perspective of land, sea and air. ‘LONDON'S LAST WILDERNESS’ presents a compelling argument to preserve the natural world that is on our own doorstep. Followed by an in-person Q&A with the writer/director, Pablo Behrens.

Directed by Oscar® Nominee David Fincher, this “darkest of dark satires” (Newsweek) is “an uncompromising American classic” (Rolling Stone) starring Brad Pitt and Edward Norton. Norton gives a riveting performance as a label-obsessed insomniac on the verge of going postal. Befriending a scummy soap salesman (Pitt), he embarks on an existential crusade that takes them both to the brutal, raw heights of their manhood. Also starring Helena Bonham Carter as the sexy psycho who comes between them, Fight Club is a “bold, inventive, sustained adrenaline rush of a movie” (Variety) that may leave you feeling bruised and bloodied…but also invigorated and alive.

When a fishing boat, the Rose Of Nevada, lost with all hands thirty years ago, mysteriously reappears in the old harbour of a forgotten Cornish village, for those who remember, it’s surely a sign. The boat must go out to sea again and maybe then the luck of the devastated village will turn. Young father Nick needs a job to provide for his family and enigmatic newcomer Liam is desperate to escape his past. They join captain Murgey and head out to sea. But when they return, satisfied with their haul, something is amiss - they’ve slipped back in time to 1993, and the villagers greet them as if they are the original crew. Following BAFTA-winning first feature Bait and Enys Men, award-winning Cornish director Mark Jenkin’s third feature film stars George MacKay and Callum Turner.

Will he ever reach his goal and escape this infinite corridor?

Hitig is a bounty hunting pig who catches escaped animals and returns them to their owners. His next job is his biggest yet: return a dancing elephant named Pickles to a maniacal Vegas showman, for a million bucks. As the mission escalates into a wild adventure around the world, Hitpig soon realises that setting things free might be the greatest reward.

Join us on the last day of April for a perfectly timed screening of the seminal 70s folk horror film The Wicker Man.

Sergeant Neil Howie, a police officer from the Scottish mainland, travels to the remote island of Summerisle to investigate the disappearance of a 12-year-old girl, Rowan Morrison. A devout Christian, he is unsettled by the islanders' overt pagan beliefs, public sexual rituals, and indifferent attitude toward the missing child. As preparations for the May Day festival intensify, his suspicions grow-and he begins to fear that something far more insidious is at play.

The Wicker Man eschews many conventional horror tropes, instead blending elements of detective thriller, folk musical, and arthouse fantasy. The bright, colourful optimism of the spring setting contrasts sharply with an atmosphere of looming dread, creating an unsettling dissonance that underpins the slow-burning mystery.

Bruce LaBruce plays himself in this 1994 ‘cautionary bio-pic’ about a gay pornographic filmmaker who’s hit a rut. Stuck being too avant-garde for the porn industry and too sleazy for the arthouse cinema circuit, Bruce hasn’t been able to make himself the next Warhol until he runs across Googie, an up-and-cumming lesbian porn director who promises to help him. But will she really give him his big renaissance or is Bruce just being exploited as a butt double?

Blending elements of pornography, avant-garde cinema and documentary filmmaking into a series of films-within-a-film (and with a cameo by Vaginal Davis) the film blurs how all of these forms of moving image blur the lines between fiction and reality. Inspired by LaBruce’s own early years and presented as a digital restoration carried out by TIFF, Super 8 1/2 is messy, sexy and funny window into the queer underground scene of 90s Canada.

Pegeen Flaherty’s life is turned upside down when a young man walks into her pub claiming that he’s killed his father. Instead of being shunned, the killer becomes a local hero and begins to win hearts, that is until a second man unexpectedly arrives on the scene…

Filmed live on stage at the National Theatre, Caitríona McLaughlin directs this darkly funny tale full to the brim with secrets.

From acts of subtle defiance to mass movements protesting state repression, queer history is replete with rich traditions of resistance. This propulsive programme unites queer struggles past and present, real and imagined, where glimpses into liberated futures flicker into view. Across a trans kung fu enclave and Filipinx organising in 90s New York, resistance manifests as the sustained, collective labour of nurturing bonds and building sanctuaries.

As part of Queer East 2026, a cross-disciplinary festival that showcases boundary-pushing LGBTQ+ cinema, live arts, and moving image work from East and Southeast Asia and its diaspora communities.

Now restored in 4K, this first screen adaptation of Pai Hsien-Yung’s groundbreaking 1983 novel Crystal Boys tells the story of A-Qing, a high school student who is thrown out of his family home after being discovered having sex with a man. A-Qing heads to the gay cruising ground of Taipei New Park, where he finds refuge with a group of fellow queer outcasts. The film’s heady mix of dreamlike fantasy, hysterical melodrama, and glitzy nightclub scenes creates a camp, surreal mood. Yet director Yu Kan-Ping succeeds in capturing the emotional rawness of A-Qing’s experience, and from our 21st century perspective, offers a nostalgic documentation of real-life sites in Taipei’s historical cruising scene, now long gone. Stunningly shot and restored to include previously censored material, this stylistically dazzling adaptation can now be appreciated in its full, hallucinatory glory.

Told from the perspective of queer parents and children, these short films cast an attentive gaze on the complexity of family dynamics. Alternative possibilities for kinship blossom in decaying cinemas and darkened forests, where love and obligation are tangled up in knots of ambivalence. From childhood to parenthood, dealing with family doesn’t seem to get any easier, but unexpected moments of connection can illuminate the way.
