‘Immersive and profoundly effective filmmaking.’ JOURNEY INTO CINEMA Deaf ceramist Ángela and her hearing partner Héctor are deeply in love. But with the arrival of their first child, they encounter unexpected roadblocks in their relationship. Fresh from this year’s Berlinale, where it went on to win two awards (including the Panorama Audience Award), Deaf delivers a refreshingly honest look at motherhood and relationships. Bolstered by moving performances and an inventive soundscape attuned to Ángela’s perspective, this is a drama of tremendous compassion, about a woman fighting against invisibility. Winner Panorama Audience Award 2025 Berlin International Film Festival

On the grounds of a medieval German university town looms an imposing Ginkgo biloba, a tree whose longevity stands in marked contrast to three intimate, human-scaled stories. Unfolding in 1908, 1972 and 2020, this tender, enchanting and wholly engrossing drama, recounts three stories that are connected to and observed by the majestic tree over the course of a century. Formally audacious and texturally varied, Oscar-nominated director Ildikó Enyedi’s unclassifiable film is a singular meditation on how we connect to the natural world, and to each other.
