Outburst: Edhi Alice: Take
Offering an important East Asian perspective on queerness, Edhi Alice: Take is a visually stunning, thoughtful and uncompromising documentary, exploring the trans experience and allyship in South Korea. Director Ilrhan Kim interrogates how documentaries about trans communities are made: the creative decisions, relationships, and ethical questions involved. The subject of the documentary is Edhi, who works as a counsellor for LGBTQ+ teens in Seoul, and has decided to undertake gender reassignment surgery. Edhi’s story intertwines with that of Alice, the lighting technician on the film crew and an older trans woman, who is preoccupied with challenging popular stereotypes about female and male bodies. The film explores queer and trans existence not as an abstract question of identity but as something continually negotiated through everyday life, performance, work, relationships, visibility, and self-representation. This screening includes a recorded introduction by director Il-rhan Kim. Kim is a member of PINKS, a queer feminist media group based in South Korea that has been highlighting the voices of marginalised communities on topics of gender diversity, social movements, and labour rights since 2004.

Fjord
This searching, Palme d’Or-winning moral dilemma pits preaching conservative Christian parents against a holier-than-thou liberal system. An evangelical family move to a small Norwegian town. Their seemingly placid adjustment is shattered when suspicions around their children’s wellbeing place the parents under severe scrutiny. Cristian Mungiu ( 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days ) masterfully crafts an ambivalent social drama that raises fundamental questions and avoids easy answers, asking us to ponder how unbiased our own sense of empathy is.

Primetime
Robert Pattinson continues his run of astonishing 2026 performances as he portrays the To Catch a Predator presenter Chris Hansen in this vivid and propulsive drama. It’s 2006 and despite its unconventional methods, To Catch a Predator is a US TV hit. When executives decide to move the show to a primetime slot, Hansen and his production team must up the ante to keep their audience, no matter the cost. Merritt Wever and Skyler Gisondo also impress in this absorbing narrative feature debut from documentary filmmaker Lance Oppenheim ( You Can See Everything ).
