El Mahdi L Youbi, 2025, France/Morocco, 9m
French with English subtitles
North American Premiere
Celebrations break out in Marseille on Bastille Day, 2019, after Algeria defeats Nigeria in the semi-final of the Africa Cup of Nations. Scenes of collective joy and state violence, soundtracked by an archival broadcast from 1974, echo France’s colonial past amid a night of pride.

New York Premiere
Spring 2025. Brooklyn, New York. One chapter closes and another begins.
The Following Day
Conor Fay, 2026, U.S., 12m
World Premiere
It’s a sweltering summer in New York. Morgan, a soft-spoken young woman prone to daydreaming, finds refuge inside the cinema where the boundaries between fantasy and reality blur, on screen and off.
Time To Go / La hora de irse
Renzo Cozza, 2026, Argentina, 20m
Spanish with English subtitles
North American Premiere
Patricio has been working for his sisters for… centuries. Trapped in a bloody family business, he is torn between loyalty to his family and a life of his own, one where daylight love is more than a mere dream. One night, a sweet melody tells him it might be time to let go.
Unleaded 95 / Bleifrei 95
Emma Hütt, Tina Muffler, 2025, Germany/Austria, 25m
German with English subtitles
New York Premiere
Three friends unite to celebrate a bachelorette party and end up navigating their friendship and confronting its secrets by transforming male-dominated spaces—gas stations, their restrooms, the highway—into queer places fed by anonymous sex, inebriated arguments, and a celebration of unpredictable freedom.
