Championed by Quentin Tarantino, who swore he cried for joy the first time he saw CHUNGKING EXPRESS, the film blazed a trail through the West for director Wong Kar-wai and his star Tony Leung. Blending pathos with quirky and daring visual stylization, it remains one of the hottest cult titles of all time and a signature piece in the careers of both Wong and Leung. Two fragmented stories of cops with broken hearts collide in the Hong Kong night in the neon-lit maze of malls, bars, and food stalls. Cop 663 (Leung) nurses the pain of being dumped by a stewardess, unaware that a fast-food server is stalking him. (BS) Screened in 2005 as part of Tony Leung: A Star for the Cutting Edge.

Sofia works as a location scout for a TV pilot filming in New York City. It’s her job to find the homes, businesses, and exteriors where the show will be filmed. Driving around the city's different neighborhoods, she enters the private spaces of strangers to photograph their cozy apartments and eclectic shops, stepping into the fabric of their lives while trying to satisfy the demands of her erratic employers. Over a day filled with these encounters, Sofia witnesses moments of curiosity, vulnerability, and quiet tension until her work takes a sudden, personal turn. Drawing from her own experience as a location scout, writer-director Paula González-Nasser captures the poetry and costs of being a young creative. Her celebrated directorial debut THE SCOUT crafts a contemplative exploration of urban disconnection, following one woman's journey through other people's worlds as she struggles to find her own.

BARBARA FOREVER is an expansive, immersive exploration of the life, work, and ongoing cultural impact of filmmaker Barbara Hammer – a pioneering artist who lived boldly, created urgently, and transformed cinema through her singular vision. Her films were an extension of herself: sensual, experimental, and unapologetically lesbian, rooted in a profound desire for connection and an insistence on telling her own story. Driven by her canon of over eighty films, a vast collection of unreleased archival materials, and extensive audio interviews, Brydie O’Connor’s portrait allows for Hammer’s voice and images to shine through, becoming both a tribute and an extension of her legacy.
