Kokuho is a familiar tale of art and ambition, but its patient pace, simply lavish craft and cultural specificity surrounding kabuki theatre transforms the familiar into a sweeping epic. It’s beautiful, captivating and magnificently intimate in its emotional sense. Yoshizawa is utterly transfixing.

THE STORY OF SOULEYMANE is an exhilarating and deeply empathetic film about an asylum seeker navigating the streets of Paris over 48 hours as he prepares for a vital interview. Sits between the social realism of the Dardenne brothers and the nerve wracking tension of recent Safdie brothers films.
