Rungano Nyoni’s dazzling second feature, an award winner at Cannes, stars Susan Chardy as Shula, a woman who discovers the corpse of the uncle who caused her considerable pain. This darkly funny portrait of Zambia’s matriarchal society and sexual abuse’s emotional scars grippingly explores the younger generation’s desire to break free from the sins of the past.

2024,
(167 mins)
Winner of the FIPRESECI prize at Cannes, this gripping drama-thriller stars Misagh Zareh as a seemingly honorable man who gets promoted to investigating judge—a job that requires him to sign the death warrants of protesters. The film is the latest angry provocation from writer-director Mohammad Rasoulof, who brilliantly details how Iran’s oppressive regime obliterates the souls of its citizens.
