TiDF honoured artist Bill Morrison with a Golden Alexander. His work, which brings damaged & decaying images back to life, resonates deeply in Greece whose strong sense of historical continuity often meets the practical challenges of limited film-archive resources and fragile audiovisual heritage.

Got to see Gus Van Sant IRL ✨ Dead Man’s Wire crackles with capitalism, rage and justice. Bill Skarsgård and Al Pacino bring sly comedic flair, Coleman Domingo spins fire on the morning airwaves and Myha’la commands the screen as the reporter who won’t be silenced. #DeadMansWire #GusVanSant

Threads of a Revolution surveys the courage of people re-building their communities with values based on gender equality and democracy.

I loved Asif Kapadia’s new genre-defying film, 2073. I loved it because it shows how close we are to a disaster created by tech billionaires who are on track to become the world’s first trillionaires (while the rest of us advocate our rights to worldwide health and peace).

Congrats to the BAFTA winners and nominees, especially to all behind EARTH MAMA and 20 DAYS IN MARIUPOL, and Da’vine Joy Randolp – well deserved. Also, POOR THINGS love! Special mentions (from me) to Molly Manning Walker for her brilliant debut nom and Sandra Hüller. www.bfi.org.uk/news/baftas-...

I'm new to Bluesky and in my mind is Jean Cocteau who after being asked what one thing he would carry away from a burning house, he replied, “the fire.”
