Documentary films are some of the most impactful cinema out there; giving us insights into worlds and lives that are often under our radar, and shaping public opinion, inspiring social change, and building communities in the process. This small film festival focuses on nonfiction cinema, with a programme of 10 films reflecting on how memory and time shape our relationships. Starting with Come See Me In The Good Light, Ryan White’s poignant love story about poets Andrea Gibson and Megan Falley, other notable screenings include a special ‘sneak preview’ screening of King Hamlet, Elvira Lind’s intimate exploration of her husband, actor Oscar Isaac, Brittany Shyne’s debut Seeds, the Sundance award-winning portrait of Black generational farmers in the American South, and Cinema Kawakeb, a documentation of the final days of a crumbling cinema in Jordan. There’s also a shorts program highlighting Palestinian filmmakers, and most screenings will finish with special Q&As.
