2025 | Dir Philippa Lowthorpe | UK | USA | 115 min

Based on Helen Macdonald’s award-winning memoir. When her beloved father dies, Cambridge academic Macdonald decides to deal with the grief by obtaining and training a goshawk. While giving her a renewed purpose in life, it starts to disengage her from family and friends, especially when she brings the bird to ‘work’, where she is ignored and attacked in equally measure. Boasting a sensitive performance from Foy and magnificent photographic sequences of ‘Mabel’, the hawk, in flight, this is a stirring study of mourning and redemption.

2026 | Dir Nia DaCosta | UK | USA | 109 min

Stars: Ralph Fiennes, Jack O’Connell, Alfie Williams

Young Spike (Alfie Williams) remains unable to escape the sadistic cult of Jimmies roaming what’s left of the country, offering “charity” to those they find. Meanwhile, Dr. Kelson (Ralph Fiennes) continues his search for a way to understand the Rage virus which ravaged the UK almost thirty years ago, with help from an unlikely assistant. Equal parts brutal and thought-provoking, this second instalment of Danny Boyle and Alex Garland’s sequel trilogy continues to push beyond what a zombie movie can be, with a truly impressive lead turn from Fiennes.

2025 | Dir Park Chan-wook | South Korea

Stars: Lee Byung-hun, Son Ye-jin, Park Hee-soon

Devoted family man (Lee Byung-hun) is made redundant from his job at the paper factory. Finding himself adrift in a merciless job market, he is determined to provide for his loved ones. Lee hatches an audacious — and wildly unethical — plan to remove his rivals one by one. What follows is a gleefully twisted climb back toward employment. Playful, sharp, and full of surprises, No Other Choice is a jet-black comedy from Park Chan-wook (Oldboy, The Handmaiden), blending domestic desperation with deliciously dark humour.
