Raised on a remote Scottish island, oddball siblings Isla (Rankin) and Sandy (O’Rourke) spend their days hunting, squabbling and telling stories. But when nervy council official Daniel (Gleeson) arrives on the island intent on moving them along, the pair must wrestle with the threat and exciting possibilities of the mainland. Crammed with intriguingly strange characters and performed with aplomb by a wonderful cast, this terrific comedy debut from director Louis Paxton fuses surreal humour, warmth and pathos. Winner of the NEXT Innovator Award at the Sundance Film Festival, this is a delightful and moving comedy about loneliness, connection and the unknown.

Starring: Hugh Jackman, Jodie Comer, Bill Skarsgård, Murray Barrlett, Noah Jupe

The Death Of Robin Hood is a darker reimagining of the classic Robin Hood tale.

Set of its time, the film sees the title character grappling with his past after a life of crime and murder; a battleworn loner who finds himself gravely injured after a battle he thought would be his last. In the hands of a mysterious woman, he is offered a chance at salvation.

PRESSURE is based on the acclaimed play, the true story of the 72 hours leading up to D-Day. The largest amphibious assault ever has been assembled and any delays risk German intelligence catching on. Britain's chief meteorological officer James Stagg (Andrew Scott) must convince the entire Allied operations led by American General ‘Ike’ Eisenhower (Brendan Fraser) to trust his unconventional methods and alter their deployment plans. The lives of millions and the fate of the war hangs in the balance of these few short days.

"This is a serious film in the best sense of the term, a thoughtful film about people facing the direst problems with honor, intelligence, and courage that goes beyond the physical to include fearlessness about pursuing the truth."

Saoirse Ronan delivers a career-best performance as Maria, a desperate teacher in an underfunded school, in this jet-black comedy.

Newly single, scraping by in a run-down house and constantly undermined by her colleagues, schoolteacher Maria is rapidly approaching breaking point. When an unruly pupil continues to push boundaries – and her patience – a split-second decision sparks a chain of events that raises uncomfortable questions about responsibility, authority and the limits of patience. German director Jonatan Etzler holds a mirror up to the contemporary British school system, hilariously cutting through issues around care and discipline with a some surprising and shocking twists. Bad Apples seamlessly blends satire, suspense and social commentary to ask how far any school would go to maintain an outstanding score from Ofsted.

A retired criminal profiler (William Petersen) reluctantly returns to the FBI to help track down a serial killer of families and is forced to consult an expert—the imprisoned Dr. Hannibal Lecktor (Brian Cox in a subtly chilling performance). The third feature written and directed by Michael Mann is a gripping adaptation of the first of Thomas Harris’s four novels featuring the iconic murderer, and benefits from the filmmaker’s typically striking visuals as well as a top-notch supporting cast, including Tom Noonan as the hunted killer, and three-time Oscar nominee Joan Allen as his blind love interest.

This new 4K Final Cut, overseen by Mann, enhances the film’s depth, visual clarity and sound, offering audiences the ultimate immersive version.

Bask in glorious images of seals, lions, weedy dragon fish and more, beautifully captured on Super 8, in this poetic love letter to nature. Known for running the popular filmmaking competition Straight 8, Ed Sayers has enjoyed a lifelong passion for Super 8mm film. After being struck by beautiful footage of flamingos captured on the format, he devised a globe-spanning documentary to celebrate the wildlife that surrounds us.

This seamlessly edited meditation on the natural world, while acknowledging the threat that many species face, is something to marvel at on the big screen.

The world-renowned author, who survived a brutal assassination attempt, confronts his past in a deeply personal account of the struggle for freedom of expression by Oscar-winner Alex Gibney.

Fifteen stab wounds in 27 seconds. That is what Salman Rushdie has survived when he opens his only functioning eye and looks directly into the camera. Together with his wife, Rachel Eliza Griffiths, Rushdie decides to document his slow return to life a few days after an assassination attempt in New York.

In the hands of Oscar winner Alex Gibney, a harrowing and deeply reflective story unfolds that follows Rushdie’s rehabilitation – not least of his spirit, humour and optimism. The backstory begins when, after the publication of ‘The Satanic Verses’, Rushdie is issued a fatwa by Iran’s Ayatollah and lives under constant threat for decades while fighting for freedom of expression.

Five young mothers living in a shelter strive for a better future for themselves and kids amidst challenging upbringings, directed by the Dardennes.

Five adolescent mothers live together in a maternal support home in Belgium, in this poignant slice of social realism directed by the Dardennes brothers. Facing challenges such as drug addiction, potential adoption, precarious living situations and complex family relations, the women deal with their situations individually, but the home provides the tools, support and the community they need.

Drawing on extensive research at state-run facilities and consultation with local social workers, this richly moving and empathetic film won a screenplay award at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, and – like much of the brothers’ work – displays the poignancy and compassion seen in the work of Andrea Arnold and Ken Loach.
