Uproar (2023)
New Zealand, English
A combination of comedy, drama and sports, Uproar is set in New Zealand in 1981, when the arrival of the South African rugby team sets off nationwide protests against apartheid and racism. Josh Waaka, a 17-year-old of mixed race who has been a passive bystander all his life, is suddenly forced to stand up for himself, his whānau, or family, and his future. Uproar skillfully combines themes of identity, family, and social justice in a heartwarming and inspirational story. Julian Dennison shines in a thoughtful portrayal of courage and resilience in the face of adversity.

The Taste of Things (2023)
France, French
Set in France in 1889, the film follows the life of Dodin Bouffant, a chef living with his personal cook and lover Eugénie, beautifully portrayed by Juliette Binoche. They live in a beautiful house in the French countryside, where Dodin entertains friends and visitors. The kitchen is the beating heart of the house. They share a long history of cooking and love as epicurean as French haute cuisine, The Taste of Things is an exquisite seven-course love story for the soul. This is a love letter to food and cooking; to the sensual nature of food; to the simple joy of making something side-by-side with a loved one.
