World Cinema
In his new feature ‘Love Life’, Japanese writer/director Kôji Fukada delivers a beguiling, beautifully paced portrait of a family navigating the aftermath of a tragedy, with honesty and a sense of hope.
Europe Calling
Emanuele Crialese’s drama of family dysfunction, starring Penélope Cruz, offers moments of glorious escapist fantasy. A clever movie about a transgender preteen that is not defined solely by anti-trans oppression.
Europe Calling
The classic 1969 French film featuring Alain Delon, Romy Schneider and the late Jane Birkin.
Roger's Favourites

Cate Blanchett is now unable to attend the Q&A after 'Tár':
“I am honoured that Chichester Film Festival is screening a retrospective of my work and was looking forward to being present for a direct, buoyant and robust audience discussion regarding Tár, a film which I am extremely proud to have been part of as both an executive producer and actor. Even though Tár has already been released I am sensitive to the fact that it was produced by a currently struck company, so while my union is in the midst of vital negotiations, I feel it inappropriate to attend.” - Cate Blanchett
We will still be screening the film, and Pamela Hutchinson will join Roger Gibson for a Q&A after the screening.
RISE - The Sun 27 Aug 17:30 screening has been moved from the Auditorium to the Studio, starting at 17:45. Please note that we will still be screening RISE in the auditorium on Sat 26 Aug 20:30 as originally programmed.
