The Secret Agent O Agente Secreto
Dreams Drømmer
‘Moments of anarchic humour amid genuine suspense.’ THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER Brazilian filmmaker Kleber Mendonça Filho delivers one of the year’s greatest films, a dynamic, shape- shifting epic set against a colour-saturated backdrop of ’70s Brazil, Carnival and political corruption. The winner of three major awards at Cannes (including Best Director and Best Actor for its star Wagner Moura) The Secret Agent is a thrillingly unpredictable, empowering political fable about people swept up in forces beyond their control. A sprawling, sly, genre-bending slow-burn thriller driven by hypnotic tension, this is essential viewing. Winner Best Actor, Best Director & International Critic’s Prize (FIPRESCI) 2025 Cannes Film Festival
‘Vividly captures the highs and lows of first love.’ SIGHT & SOUND In this Berlinale Golden Bear-winner from Norwegian director Dag Johan Haugerud, Johanne is 17 and has found her first true love – her high school French teacher. To help her get over her obsession she pours all her feelings and experiences into writing, sharing her intimate journal with her mother and grandmother. This queer coming-of-age story is a nuanced, sensitive depiction of a transformative first crush and an intelligent exploration of writing, inspiration and the power of taking control of one’s own narrative. Winner Golden Bear 2025 Berlin International Film Festival
