The festival screenings will be split into three sections:

Personal histories, historical identities and the way the past dictates our lives. These films tells stories about immigrants, imperialists and lovers.
Centerpiece: Present
It has been more than a year since we started to self-isolate, even as vaccines are rolled out and lockdown restrictions loosen it seems like isolation still dictates the way we live our lives. These films interrogate the value of keeping to yourself, wishing you could fly away and wanting to become something else.
Closing Night: Future
What do we give to the world and what are we going to leave behind? The films selected for this screening block deal directly with family, mortality and our lineages in this world. These are stories about newborns, fathers, sons and how we will always be connected to somebody else.
I've included which section each films is in as well as the screening time/dates in the notes.
