In 1976, a young 19-year-old Anthony Bourdain (known then as ‘Tony’) aspires to become a professional writer but fails to get into his college’s writing fellowship. With no desire to remain at home for the summer, he travels to Provincetown, Massachusetts to chase his unrequited high school crush Nancy. When things go sideways, he accepts a job at a Cape Cod restaurant, learning under the tutelage of Ciro, a Brazilian-born chef and restaurateur.


Featuring standout performances from an all-star cast, including BAFTA nominee Dominic Sessa (The Holdovers) as Bourdain, Academy Award nominee Emilia Jones (Coda), Academy Award nominee Antonio Banderas (Pain and Glory) and Leo Woodall (One Day), TONY unapologetically conveys the complicated origins of Bourdain, laying the foundations of his culinary career while showcasing his famous wit and humour.

Pedro Almodóvar is back with his unique brand of storytelling, setting the stage for the tale of a filmmaker who begins to be a little too heavily inspired by the real lives of those around him.


Raúl (Leonardo Sbaraglia) is a cult filmmaker in the midst of a creative crisis. When tragedy strikes one of his closest collaborators, he draws inspiration from it to write his next film. Little by little, he imagines Elsa (Bárbara Lennie), a filmmaker in the midst of writing a script, whose journey begins to mirror his own.


The two filmmakers become two sides of the same character, in a game of mirrors where the raw honesty of autofiction reveals as much as it destroys. But how far can one go to tell a story?

Bill McKay (Robert Redford) is an idealistic young activist who agrees to run for elected office, hoping to use the campaign to bring important issues into the public debate. When McKay’s honesty and integrity captivate the electorate’s attention, his long-shot candidacy attracts the attention of the party machine, and McKay must decide whether he can effect a greater change as a part of the government or if he should retain his integrity and lose. With an Academy Award®–winning script by Jeremy Larner, who served as a speechwriter for 1968 Democratic presidential hopeful Eugene McCarthy, THE CANDIDATE is a sharply observant satire about the absurdities of modern politics which remains exceedingly relevant.

For more than six decades, the Up series has captured the lives of ordinary Britons and become one of the most influential documentaries ever made.


“Give me a child at seven and I will show you the man.” What began with those words in 1964 became one of the most ambitious and beloved documentary projects ever created. For more than 60 years, the Up series has followed the lives of fourteen children from across Britain, chronicling their extraordinary yet ordinary lives as they grew older on screen. It captured the hopes, struggles, relationships and changing realities that shaped generations.


Now, the story reaches its extraordinary final chapter. As the participants turn 70, the team behind 70 Up, with multi-award-winning director Asif Kapadia at the helm, reflect on the emotional and creative challenge of bringing this landmark series to a close, and why the films continue to resonate so deeply with audiences around the world.
