Hiftu Quasem, Ingvar Sigurdsson, Jonathan Hyde, Lara Rossi, Leanne Best, Ruaridh MollicaOriginally produced by Kino Lorber in 2024.WARNING: This film is not rated and may contain content that could be offensive to some viewers. Viewer discretion is advisedMax is a 25-year-old writer living in London and paying his dues working at a literary magazine. On the cusp of finding success in the local lit scene, by night Max moonlights as a sex worker in order to research his debut novel. What begins as a few furtive meetings soon becomes a secret nocturnal life as his alter ego “Sebastian.” In a fearless lead performance from newcomer Ruraridh Mollica, Max’s emotions cycle through ecstasy, shame, and exhilarating liberation. Far from simply informing his autobiographical fiction, Max’s experiences as Sebastian awaken a deeper sense of self, unshackled from societal expectations – all the while threatening his carefully-earned status in the literary community. This Sundance Film Festival selection from writer-director Mikko Mäkelä explores the transgressive power of queer sexuality and the transformative impact that can result from embracing a new identity.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

Lovely Rita. by Hausner, Jessica,film director.; Osika, Barbara,actor.; Bauer, Christoph,actor.; Brandlmayer, Karina,actor.; Fiala, Peter,actor.; Kostal, Wolfgang,actor.; Film Movement (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Barbara Osika, Christoph Bauer, Karina Brandlmayer, Peter Fiala, Wolfgang KostalOriginally produced by Film Movement in 2001.Feeling confined by her well-mannered suburban environment, the pubescent Rita gradually attempts to test and break the expectations made of her. As she skips class to pursue her infatuation for a local bus driver as well as her own desires, her disapproving parents and classmates begin to question the motivation behind her provocations. However, Rita’s adolescent rebellions occlude a more sinister intention. “A deliciously observed, ironic take on middle-class Austrian life,” (Variety) Jessica Hausner’s debut feature establishes her thematic interest in societal assimilation with a singular portrait of teenage recalcitrance. Newly restored in 4k and available for the first time in North America, LOVELY RITA remains just as shocking as it was during its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival in 2001.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
