Introduction
AFRICA IN MOTION
SUFFRAGETTE
THE SECOND MOTHER
OEDIPUS
“I thought the major was a lady…”
Blimey, it’s October already. Not historically a busy month here at Filmhouse, but in recent years it has been rivalling January as the busiest
month of the year. The UK film industry seems to have developed a habit of premiering films at the London Film Festival (LFF, early October)
then releasing them immediately after in late October and November (they do that with EIFF too, in July and August), and this year is most
certainly continuing that trend. Often these days in October, our three screens are simply not enough, what with all the myriad festivals
we’re hosting (Edinburgh Spanish Film Festival, Africa in Motion, Scotland Loves Anime, Play Poland, Scottish Mental Health Arts & Film
Festival…) In a wider sense, what with the latest Bond film about to explode on to cinema screens and Star Wars in December, the cinema
industry is gearing up for a record breaking year, and whilst we won’t be showing those last two on their respective release dates, don’t be
too surprised to see them here at some point…
One of those films coming straight out after its LFF bow (only 5 days later in fact!) is Suffragette, which stars Carey Mulligan as one of the
foot soldiers of the early feminist movement, spurred to action by the rousing speeches of Emmeline Pankhurst (Meryl Streep) in the years
before women (initially, well-off women over 30 at any rate!) were given the right to vote. Urgent and compelling as the film most certainly
is, one downside of it for me is that I’ve had that (Paul McCartney &) Wings’ song ‘Jet’ ineluctably spinning round in my head for many weeks.
I might have preferred Bowie’s ‘Suffragette City’, but I guess with these things there’s little choice. On the bright side, no-one has rereleased
Birdy lately, or made a film called Mistletoe and Wine. (If anyone did make one, I reckon it would be about a couple of middle-aged lady
gardeners who turn to amateur criminal detecting... though that’s starting to sound familiar…) As a complement to the release of Suffragette
we’re also screening a marvellous BFI Archive silent film compilation showing, among other things, how these remarkable women were
viewed at the time.
Replete with a host of breathtaking bike racing sequences, The Program is Stephen Frears’ thrilling film inspired by the book ‘Seven
Deadly Sins: My Pursuit of Lance Armstrong’ by Irish journalist David Walsh (played by Chris O’Dowd) who was, for many years, the lone
voice questioning the achievements of the titular one time/seven time Tour de France winner. The powers that decide such things have
decreed that we are able to bring you Justin Kurzel’s stunning new version of Macbeth on October 30 (a bit later than some other cinemas
in town) but you’ll have waited to see it here, so that’s fine; Brazilian The Second Mother is a gem of a film, in which the arrival of the
estranged daughter of the live-in maid of an idle rich São Paulo family causes the unspoken class divide to come to the fore in moving and
transformative ways; and Red Army tells the fascinating and gripping tale of the all-conquering USSR Ice Hockey team of the late 70s and 80s.
Lastly, (though there’s way more on this month than I have room to mention above, like a live music event with The Magic Science Quartet
playing to Ka’s Oedipus), we’ve a couple of Halloween treats for you: Vincent Price in André de Toth’s 1953 3D classic, House of Wax, and John
Carpenter’s seminal seasonal offering, Halloween.

We’re really keen to encourage your deeper engagement with the great cinema we screen. We
know going to the cinema a lot can be quite expensive, so we’ve devised a ticket deal to make it
cheaper to see films beyond the big new releases.
Here’s how it works: buy a ticket for a film in the left hand column below, and you will receive a
voucher that will entitle you, on handing it in at the Box Office, to 50% off a full price ticket to any
film (or any film in any season) listed in the right hand column.
We’ve marked the films and seasons involved with wee logos to make them easier to spot (orange

15 - Contains strong language, sex references
Cast: Andrew Garfield, Michael Shannon, Laura Dern.
Aleksey German • Russia 2013 • 2h57m • Digital • Russian with
English subtitles • 18 - Contains strong gore, violence, nudity
Cast: Gali Abaydulov, Yuriy Ashikhmin, Remigijus Bilinskas.
Fri 9 to Sun 11 Oct
When his family are abruptly evicted from their Florida
home during the real estate crash of 2008, single
father Dennis Nash (Andrew Garfield) - out of sheer
desperation - accepts an offer to work for the broker
who kicked him out (Michael Shannon). Becoming
increasingly successful, Nash is faced with subjecting
other families to the humiliating ordeal that plunged his
life into turmoil.
With acclaimed filmmaker Ramin Bahrani at the helm
and compelling performances from his lead actors, 99
Homes is an intense and urgent drama.
Based on a 1960s novel by Stalker authors Arkadiy and
Boris Strugatskiy, this monumental film is the final work
by the late Aleksey German. Shot in relentlessly tactile
black-and-white, the film sees a group of scientists arrive
on the planet Arkanar - on which civilisation has reached
the Medieval phase of its history.
Faced with observing a civilisation with which they can
not interfere, this rather bewildering, dense and aweinspiring film explores the prospect of being faced with
ultimate power, in a society still finding its way.

Having spent over a decade in the south-eastern city
of Sao Paulo working as a nanny, Val earns a living but
lives with the regret of leaving her daughter Jessica
to be raised by relatives back in the north. When
Jessica arrives in the city to sit college entrance exams,
their cohabitation proves to be a rather challenging
experience for everyone.
Full of warmth, charm and social conscience, Anna
Muylaert’s award-winning film boasts an exceptional
performance from Regina Casé.
Trudno byt bogom
From director Wes Orshoski (Lemmy) comes the story
of the long-ignored pioneers of punk: The Damned, the
first UK punks on wax and the first to cross the Atlantic.
Filmed over three years and including appearances
from Chrissie Hynde, Mick Jones, Lemmy and members
of Pink Floyd, Black Flag, GNR, the Sex Pistols, Blondie,
Buzzcocks and more, the film charts The Damned’s
complex history and infighting as they celebrate their
35th anniversary, whilst estranged former members
strike out on a rival anniversary tour and still others
battle cancer.
The Dance of Reality
Alejandro Jodorowsky • Chile/France 2013 • 2h13m • Digital
Spanish with English subtitles • 18 - Contains strong torture
Cast: Brontis Jodorowsky, Pamela Flores, Jeremias Herskovits,
Alejandro Jodorowsky, Bastian Bodenhöfer, Andres Cox, Adan
Jodorowsky, Cristobal Jodorowsky.
Produced and directed by legendary filmmaker
Alejandro Jodorowsky (The Holy Mountain, El Topo,
Santa Sangre), The Dance of Reality marks his return to
filmmaking after a break of 23 years.
Born in Tocopilla, a coastal town on the edge of the
Chilean desert, Jodorowsky now returns there to
recount his unhappy and alienated childhood as part
of an uprooted immigrant family. Blending history
with metaphor, mythology and poetry, this intensely
personal film reflects Jodorowsky’s philosophy that
reality is a dance created by our own imaginations.

In this smart, sensitive drama, Margherita (Margherita
Buy) is a middle-aged director shooting a film with
a difficult American star (played by John Turturro).
Throughout this testing time, she wrestles with her
mother’s terminal illness and her daughter’s volatile
adolescence.
Nanni Moretti’s understated and affecting film - a Palme
d’Or nominee at Cannes - explores existential confusion
and loss, while weaving moments of wry humour into
the drama.
Concerto - A Beethoven Journey
Sat 10 & Sun 11 Oct
Phil Grabsky • UK 2015 • 1h32m • Digital • U
Documentary
The life of Ludwig van Beethoven is explored through
five of his masterworks in this new film from Phil
Grabsky - the award-winning director behind the
In Search of... series of classical music documentaries.
Filmed over the course of four years, the film follows
leading concert pianist Leif Ove Andsnes’ attempt to
understand and interpret one of the greatest sets of
works for piano ever written: Beethoven’s five piano
concertos.
Selected to open the 2015 BFI London Film Festival,
Sarah Gavron’s drama tracks the story of the foot soldiers
of the early feminist movement.
These working women, who had seen peaceful protest
achieve nothing, turn to violence as the only route
to change, willing to lose everything in their fight for
equality. Maud (Carey Mulligan) was one such foot
soldier. The story of her fight for dignity is as gripping
and visceral as any thriller, it is also heart-breaking and
inspirational.

Showing from Mon 12 Oct
Richard Bracewell • UK 2015 • 1h34m • Digital
PG - Contains mild bad language, sex references, violence
Cast: Mathew Baynton, Martha Howe-Douglas, Ben Willbond,
Simon Farnaby, Jim Howick, Laurence Rickard.
Much speculation has been made about William
Shakespeare’s ‘lost years’ - the period between his
obscure beginnings in Stratford-upon-Avon and
eventual acclaim as a London playwright. In Bill, the
performers from the BBC Horrible Histories series
provide some of their own ideas...
With multi-role performances from the six lead actors
and cameos throughout, we follow hopeless young lute
player Bill Shakespeare as he leaves his home and family
to follow his dreams.
As American cyclist Lance Armstrong (Ben Foster) rises
to prominence as a world champion, heroically battling
cancer along the way, one Irish journalist is the lone
dissenting voice against his accolades.
Initially enamoured by Armstrong’s charisma and
dedication, sports writer David Walsh (Chris O’Dowd)
begins to suspect that the seven-time Tour de France
winner’s successes have been built on a lie.
Based on Walsh’s book Seven Deadly Sins: My Pursuit of
Lance Armstrong, Stephen Frears (Philomena) directs
this tale of deception, intrigue and eventual vindication.

fatality
Complementing the release of Sarah Gavron’s
Suffragette (see page 6), this selection of silent films
from the BFI National Archive shows how suffragettes
were portrayed on the cinema screen while their battles
were still been waged on the streets outside.
The suffragettes’ tactic was to stand up at every public
event and cry votes for women! As leader Emmeline
Pankhurst said in her legendary speech of November
1913: “You have to make more noise than anybody else,
you have to make yourself more obtrusive than anybody
else, you have to fill all the papers more than anybody
else. In fact you have to be there all the time and see
that they do not snow you under.”

Justin Kurzel • UK 2015 • 1h53m • Digital
15 -Contains strong bloody violence
Cast: Michael Fassbender, Marion Cotillard, Sean Harris, Elizabeth
Debicki, Paddy Considine.
An ambitious Scottish duke is promised the throne
by three mysterious witches, and his murderous coup
begins to consume him.
Shakespeare’s ‘Scottish Play’ returns to our screens in
this highly-anticipated, thrilling and visually striking
adaptation from Justin Kurzel (Snowtown), starring
Michael Fassbender in the titular role and Marion
Cotillard as Lady Macbeth.
Red Army
Gabe Polsky • USA/Russia 2014 • 1h24m • Digital • English and

Documentary
Established initially by Josef Stalin and his son, the
Soviet Union’s ice hockey team went on to become one
of the most dominant sporting dynasties in history.
Funded and supported by the government as a vehicle
for the socialist message, it quickly became a symbol of
cultural and creative expression.
Gabe Polsky’s fresh and fascinating documentary tells
the story of this Red Army team through the eyes of
its players - particularly its captain, Slava Fetisov - and
examines the complex (and often bizarre) interplay
between the sporting and political landscapes behind
the Iron Curtain.
OEDIPUS
Live Performance
Oedipus
with live score by The Magic Science Quartet
Tue 6 Oct at 9.00pm
KA • Switzerland 2015 • 1h • Digital • Silent with Live Music
Cast: Yoshihiro Shimomura, Tora Shimomura, Prince (horse).
This silent film tells the story of Oedipus in an unfamiliar
light: here, it is not the son who is the murderer, but his
father. And, in assisting his father, his mother creates
severe conflicts within herself. But Oedipus himself is a
character full of fantasy and love, the creative counterpart
of criminal intentions and crude violence - and the central
focus of the film is Japanese Butoh dancer Yoshihiro
Shimomura, who portrays both Oedipus and nearly all of
the story’s other roles.
An integral part of all screenings of the film are the
members of The Magic Science Quartet, who improvise
a never-to-be-repeated free jazz score which reflects the
“vibrations of the day”. The Quartet’s members are Henry
Grimes (master of the double bass, violin and poetry, and
renowned bandmate of everyone from Benny Goodman
to Cecil Taylor), Marshall Allen (saxophonist and longtime leader of the Sun Ra Arkestra), Avreeayl Ra (master
drummer/percussionist and former member of the Sun Ra
Arkestra) and KA (pianist/shaman drummer and director
of Oedipus).
The combination of performances by Shimomura and The
Magic Science Quartet, and the gorgeous landscapes of
Valposchiavo (the location in the Swiss Alps where the
film was shot) create a moving picture of poetry, dance
and music. Website: uncool.ch

SINSOMBRERO
THE UNEXPECTED LIFE
¡Bienvenidos!
We’ve had a busy year of preparation following the success of last year’s inaugural festival and we
are thrilled to present this year’s programme. We have worked hard to put together a varied, exciting
group of films covering a range of themes and genres to ensure there is something for everyone with
an interest in Spain and its cinema. Included in the programme are two ‘homages’: Las Sinsombrero, a
documentary on ‘the forgotten women’ from the Generation of ‘27 - a group of brilliant authors and
artists who championed equality but were overlooked during Francoism. We are also screening 25 años
después de la muerte de Jaime Gil de Biedma, a tribute to Gil de Biedma, arguably the most important
Spanish poet of the second half of the 20th century, an intellectual and perennial figure of controversy.
In this edition, we are opening windows to Basque Cinema with two wonderful films; Loreak and 80
Egunean. Galicia is also represented with a screening of Os Fenómenos. Other screenings this year
include La vida inesperada, Vivir es fácil con los ojos cerrados and the highest grossing Spanish film in
Spanish box office history - Ocho apellidos vascos - a hilarious taboo-smashing satire on the cultural
divide between northern and southern Spain!
As with last year, we will bring young talented and well established directors to present their films and
host Q&A sessions. For the “cinema buffs” we have created ‘Hidden Gems’ a section remembering the
history of Spanish cinema with Mi querida señorita. Finally, as a result of the success of our ‘films for
schools’ section, we have two feature films followed by workshops and an animated film for primary
schools.
We would like to thank everybody who has been involved in this edition; staff, friends, volunteers and
above all, the sponsors who have helped and trusted us to make this festival possible. A big thanks to
everybody that made our fundraising events an incredible success because without you, this festival
wouldn’t have been possible.
Many thanks for your support. We hope to see you there!

We all know the Generation of ‘27 and their most
relevant figures: Dalí, Buñuel, Lorca... But, were there
no women in their group? Alongside the men, a
very talented group of women existed, created and
succeeded. They equalled their male counterparts
throughout years of creative explosion and civil liberties
that would transform Spain’s history forever. Gradually,
however, these women were forgotten during Franco’s
reign. Las Sinsombrero recovers the memory of these
women, as fundamental figures of the cultural history of
a country that never claimed them.
2 Oct screening will be followed by ‘The Forgotten
Women of the Generation of ‘27’ - a talk by director Tania
Balló. 3 Oct screening will be followed by a Q&A with
directors Tania Balló and Serrana Torres.

Ane’s life turns around when an anonymously delivered

receiving mysterious bunches of flowers. Every week,
an unknown person lays a bunch of flowers in memory

by nothing more than some flowers; flowers that make
each one feel emotions they’d thought were long gone...

charm and romantic advances are rejected by a Basque
girl called Amaia. Determined to win her over, Rafa
heads north, to Euskadi (The Basque Country). There, he
will do everything he can to change Amaia’s mind, even
if it means pretending to be a local.

A fascinating insight into two choreographers: Wilfried
Van Poppel and Amaya Lubeigt. Based in Germany
running dance workshops with secondary school
classes, for the first time they will leave central Europe
and travel to Spain to do a dance workshop with
Spanish children. The challenge: to turn a class of selfconscious teenagers into dancers with a performance
at the end. The youngsters are forced to break away
from their social roles precisely when these are starting
to take shape in their lives. The good-looking boy is no
longer the most admired; the shy recluse takes a step
forward... a microcosm put through a small big bang.

Adela is a spinster in her forties who lives alone. She is
aware that she is not a normal woman as she needs to
shave every day and is attracted to her maid.
This was the first Spanish film to talk about sexual
orientation, which was a taboo subject during
Franco’s regime. Consider it a predecessor to some of
Almodóvar’s film dramas, with its extreme characters,
suffering, provincialism; in the case of My Dearest
Señorita, there’s a very light touch of all of that.
This film plays out something like the chorus of “Girls &
Boys” by Blur but castizo in Spanish provinces. How the
director escaped Franco’s censorship is an enigma we
will never truly understand.
This screening will be followed by a ‘How Could This Film
Pass Censorship?’ - a talk by Prof. Nuria Capdevila from
The University of Exeter.

This award-winning tale, inspired by true events, takes
place in 1966. John Lennon heads to Almeria to work
on Richard Lester’s anti-war film: How I Won the War.
Antonio, an English teacher, decides to set out and meet
Lennon. On the way, he meets Belén, who has run away
from the murky chains clamped upon her by her family
and the social atmosphere reigning in the country. Both
run into the 16-year-old Juanjo, who has run away from
home. The three share their days and the adventure, as
it becomes the expression of a country desperate for a
better future in the beautiful and backward Almeria of
the 60s.
The screening on 4 Oct will be followed by a Q&A with
Dr Antonio Sánchez from the University of Stirling.

Neneta lives without responsibilities or plans in a motor
home on the coast of Spain. When her partner, ‘Wolf’,
disappears without explanation she decides to go
back to her hometown in Galicia and finds a job as a
construction worker. With courage and sense of humor
she overcomes the hard labour and male-dominated
environment. But ‘Wolf’ returns and she must confront
the decision to run with him again or stay and build a
life for her and her child.
One day just like any other, Marcelo steps out of the
flat of his ex-wife to take their children to school. The
kids propose a race downstairs ‘’to see who gets there
first’’. They’ll go down the stairs, while their father takes
the lift. When he reaches the ground floor, there is no
trace of the kids. They’re not there. He can’t hear them
in the stairwell. They don’t respond to his shouts. They
don’t answer the mobile phone. His children, Luna, age
4, and Luca age 6, have completely vanished inside the
building.
Both screenings will be followed by Q&As with director

A young Spanish director, León Siminiani, is fired from
his precarious job in television. Returning to his dream
of making films, he travels to India to ‘find’ his first
feature film, only to realise that his true search is not in
India, but in Madrid: he was running away. But things
don’t go exactly as he’d expected on his return.
A journey of self-discovery that faces Spanish social
reality head-on. An example of the difficulty many
young Spaniards face today fighting against the odds in
order to make their story heard.

After a six-year relationship, Alberto and Luisa are
going through a crisis. One of the consequences of the
recession is that they had to move to a small village in
the middle of nowhere. She has to travel to Madrid every
day to work whilst he takes care of their son. However,
they are not alone in their crisis, Alberto’s brother Juan
has eyes only for his young girlfriend, and Luisa’s sister,
always proud of being single, is considering getting
married. An optimistic comedy about how a group of
friends in their 40’s face the challenges experienced
by many in present-day society: the lack of jobs and
opportunities, the search for a better life and love stories
that are rarely “forever” anymore.

Dsiadevich, Yaroslav Biletskiy.
Few films this year have split opinion more than The
Tribe. Winner of the 2014 International Critics’ Week
Grand Prize at Cannes, it has been described as
“unmistakably, radically new” (Justin Chang, Variety) and
yet, in parts, “almost unwatchable” (Mark Kermode, The
Observer). Whatever director Myroslav Slaboshpytskiy
was trying to do, this brutal debut feature, told entirely
through unsubtitled Ukrainian Sign Language, certainly
provoked reactions.
This special showing is followed by a panel discussion,
delivered in spoken English and British Sign Language.
Will the panel, and you, agree with the filmmakers’ claim
that “for love and hatred, you don’t need translation”?
The panellists will be EJ Raymond (actor, writer and
founder of Turtléar), Andy Carmichael (sign language
interpreter, TV producer), Nicholas Padden-Duncan
(freelance sign language professional and director of
Kumquat & Co.) and Professor Ursula Böser (from the
Department of Langauges & Intercultural Studies at
Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh).
This event is supported by the

At the beginning of the 1980s, Spain is still undergoing
its transition to democracy after decades of Fascist rule
under Franco. In Villafranco del Guadalquivir, a forgotten
town in the wetlands of Andalusia, two teenage girls
go missing, bringing two homicide detectives from
Madrid to try and track them down. With troubled pasts
and decidedly contrasting approaches, Juan (Javier
Gutiérrez) and Pedro (Raúl Arévalo) must put aside
their differences to hunt a predator who has spent
years terrorising a community rooted in misogyny and
machismo.

Sabine Timoteo, Agnese Graziani, Monica Bellucci.
The family of 12-year-old Gelsomina (Maria Alexandra
Lungu, in an extraordinary debut) lives in the Italian
countryside, tending to their beehives and staying at
arm’s length from the outside world. But that world is
growing ever more unavoidable, whether in the form of
hunters who stalk their land by night or new regulations
on their honey harvesting. One summer, the family’s
fragile unity is attacked on two fronts: by the arrival of
Martin, a boy from a work rehabilitation program, and
from ‘Countryside Wonders’, a glitzy prize competition
hosted by ambiguous star Milly Catena (Monica
Bellucci).
Winner of the Grand Prix at the 2014 Cannes Film
Festival, this second fiction feature by Alice Rohrwacher
(Corpo Celeste) is a glimpse into a meticulouslyconstructed rural world, filmed with the objective eye
of a seasoned documentarian and shot through with
expertly-deployed touches of wry humour and magic
realism.

Three intertwining stories about men - from past,

Aronofsky explores love, death and grief through the
stories of Tomás, Tom and Tommy (Hugh Jackman),
with layered subtleties that complement the often vivid

divisive among critics, this is a grandiose, sincere and
unquestionably original piece of cinema.

The astonishing true story of a champion racehorse,
raised on an allotment in one of the poorest mining
valleys in Wales.
The story begins in 2000, when Jan Vokes, the barmaid
of the local working men’s club, hears a regular talking
about the time he owned a share of a racehorse. Jan
convinces a handful of locals to part with ten pounds a
week, finds a thoroughbred mare with a terrible racing
record for £300, a stallion past his best, puts them
together and - against all the odds - breeds a winner.

Cast: Bette Davis, Lillian Gish, Vincent Price, Ann Sothern.
For decades, since they were children, two old sisters
have returned to a cottage on an island off the coast
of Maine, where in August it has been their custom to
watch at twilight as the whales pass on their journeys
to wherever it is that whales go. Although they make
plans for the future, and argue over whether they should
install a new picture window, there is the sense that
this will be their last summer in the cottage. A quietly
compelling film, featuring wonderful performances
from two legends of cinema, Bette Davis and Lillian
Gish. There is a story that during filming, Anderson told
Gish one day that she had just performed wonderfully
in a closeup. “She should,” Davis declared. “She invented
them.”
Herbert Wilcox • USA 1939 • 1h48m • Digital • English and

Cast: Anna Neagle, Edna May Oliver, George Sanders, Zasu Pitts.
In an Oscar-nominated film based on the true WWI
heroism of the title character, Anna Neagle plays
English nurse Edith Cavell - the matron in a small
private hospital in German-occupied Brussels. When
the son of a recently deceased patient escapes from a
German prisoner-of-war camp, Cavell aids him to reach
Holland and safety. This leads to Cavell and a small
group of supporters forming an organization to help
Belgian, French, English and other soldiers escape as
well. Eventually the Germans become aware of what’s
happening and take action...
This special screening marks 100 years since Edith
Cavell was court-martialled and found guilty of
treason by Germany, for which she was executed by
firing squad.

With the voices of Yuki Kaji, Yui Ishikawa, Marina Inoue.
Several hundred years ago, humans were nearly
exterminated by the Titans, cruel giants who gorge on
human flesh. Flash forward to the present - the city has
not seen a Titan in over 100 years ‚ but teenage boy Eren
and his foster sister Mikasa witness as the massive city
walls are suddenly destroyed by a super Titan. After
watching in horror as their mother is eaten alive, Eren
vows to take revenge on the Titans for all of mankind....
The screening will be introduced by Festival Director,
Andrew Partridge.
Narrowly avoiding execution, Eren’s fate has been
entrusted to his Scout Regiment, provided he is capable
of following orders. But on an expedition outside the
wall, a unique female Titan appears and cuts through the
Scouts, leaving a trail of carnage. As it becomes obvious
that a traitor is sabotaging the Regiment from within,
Eren must ask himself who humanity’s true enemy really
is, as bloody revelations await beyond the wall.
The screening will be introduced by Jonathan Clements.

In 1814 Edo, a much accomplished artist works tirelessly
in his studio. His name is Katsushika Hokusai and decades
later his work will come to mesmerise a score of prominent
Western artists. But few were aware of the woman who
often painted for him whilst remaining uncredited.
This is the untold story of Hokusai’s daughter, O-Ei, a
free-spirited woman overshadowed by her larger-than-life
father. Inheritor of both his stubbornness and his talent,
her own art is so powerful that it leads to trouble....

When brilliant medical student John Watson is invited to

Institution, he is sent on a clandestine mission. In his alternate
19th-century London, corpse reanimation technology has
developed, rendering the dead useful as basic labour. Watson
is tasked with searching for the legendary writings of Dr
Victor Frankenstein, who, a century earlier, allegedly detailed

As members of the dominant Radiant cycling team,
Jeong, Ming and Tian all play different tactical roles.
While rookies Ming and Tian hold positions and create
opportunities for him, Jeong is the sprinter - profiting
from their work to charge towards the finish line, and
receiving all the accolades of their eventual victories.
After unsuccessful attempts at riding with other teams,
the pair find themselves together again at the bottom of
the local racing circuit, determined to work their way up
to challenge their former team-mate once more.
Based on the famous web comic series of the same
name, Go Away Mr. Tumour is a light and amusing take
on the darkest days of the life of Xiong Dun (the original
cartoonist of the comic, and protagonist of this film
adaptation).
After being dumped by her boyfriend and losing her job,
Xiong Dun’s bad luck takes an even worse turn when she
is diagnosed with a malignant tumour. Beginning her
treatment with her merry band of friends at her side, the
optimistic 29 year old discovers that there’s more to life
than what she had and lost.

Wajda School has been active for over 10 years. It was
founded in Warsaw by Andrzej Wajda and Wojciech
Marczewski. It offers a unique combination of
production and education for film professionals.
Before she officially became Marianna, she lived as a man.
She had a family, children, and a job at the Warsaw Metro.
But she had a constant sense of unease - a female mind
trapped in Wojtek’s male body. When she was 43 years
old, Marianna realised that she could no longer live as a
man. Her mother still calls her ‘Wojtek’, her ex-wife avoids
encounters, and her children have grown distant. Marianna
understands their reactions, fears and grudges, but there is
no one who understands her.
Call Me Marianna is not a story about a transsexual. It is a
story about loneliness, hope, and the price one has to pay
for it.
Marta, 37, is a sculptress. Despite her beautiful
apartment and loving husband, Jacek, she still does
not feel truly happy. Magdalena Piekorz’s psychological
drama explores the lingering power of family ties...
Marta’s toxic relationship with her overbearing and
interfering mother complicates every aspect of her
married life. Mother and daughter cannot live without
each other and yet cannot be together. As Jacek and
Marta plan to have a baby, Marta’s mother desperately
tries to keep her daughter’s love only for her.

Ruhorahoza’s second feature confirms the strength
of the Rwandan filmmaker’s brilliantly distinctive
directorial voice. A merciless dissection of the
relationship between masculinity and territoriality,
the film is composed of mesmerising imagery and
soundscapes that are both immaculately cinematic and
hauntingly enigmatic, laying the foundation for rich and
important conversations about the soul of the African
continent.
Kivu Ruhorahoza.
This second feature by Moroccan director Mohamed
Mouftakir is lighter in tone and colour than his first
feature Pegasus (screened at AiM 2011), but equally
concerned with the relationship between a father and
his son. The film’s narrative is endearingly told from the
perspective of Mimou and the dramas of living with an
orchestra who depend on impersonating the blind in
order to play at women-only parties within the homes of
Morocco’s conservative families.

first time, on the big screen.
André De Toth • USA 1953 • 1h28m • Digital • PG
Cast: Vincent Price, Phyllis Kirk, Frank Lovejoy.
Wings of Desire
Aferim!
The first 3D colour film ever produced by an American
studio, this classic chiller sees Vincent Price play
a vengeful wax sculptor who, after mysteriously
surviving a fire (maliciously caused by his business
partner), reappears with new creations that are
remarkably life-like - a little too life-like...

Radu Jude • Romania/Bulgaria/Czech Republic/France 2015
1h48m • Digital • Romanian, Turkish and Romany with English

This year’s Silver Bear winner for Best Director at
Berlinale and regarded as one of the amplest Romanian
cinema projects in the past years, Aferim! is a historical

Wallachia. The main character, a state tax collector,
accompanied by his son, searches for a fugitive gypsy
slave.

Cristi Puiu • Romania 2005 • 2h34m • Digital • Romanian with
English subtitles • 15 - Contains strong language
Cast: Ion Fiscuteanu, Luminita Gheorghiu, Gabriel Spahiu
The film that ignited the much-discussed Romanian
New Wave, Cristi Puiu’s extraordinary second feature
traces the odyssey of Dante Remus Lazarescu as he
journeys through a public health system, with doctors
refusing to treat him. This masterpiece depicts a
universal theme - death and hospitals - with humanity
and dark humour.
Halloween
John Carpenter • USA 1978 • 1h31m • Digital • 18 - Contains
strong threat and horror
Cast: Donald Pleasence, Jamie Lee Curtis, Nancy Loomis.
Fifteen years after murdering his sister, Michael

Der Himmel über Berlin
Sun 1 Nov at 8.00pm
Wim Wenders • West Germany/France 1987 • 2h8m • Digital
German, English, French and Turkish with English subtitles
15 - Contains one use of strong language
Cast: Bruno Ganz, Solveig Dommartin, Otto Sander, Peter Falk.
Part romance, part comedy, part meditation on matters
political and philosophical, Wenders’ remarkable movie
posits a world haunted by invisible angels listening in to
our thoughts. Two kindly spirits (Ganz and Sander), posted
to contemporary Berlin, encounter a myriad of mortals,
including an ageing writer, an actor and a lonely trapeze
artist, with whom Ganz falls in love, thus prompting his
desire to become mortal at last. Full of astonishingly
hypnotic images that manage effortlessly to turn a poetic,
literary script into pure cinematic expression. Few films are
so rich, so intriguing, or so ambitious.
This screening will be preceded by an introduction by Dr
Pasquale Iannone, Short Courses Lecturer, University of
Edinburgh.
