List of Events

  1. Two men and one woman sit on some luggage in the middle of a barren desert. Another older man stands next to them, his right hand on his hip. The sun beats down relentlessly as one of the sitting men stares at the ground in a forlorn manner.

  2. We see a younger Japanese man with auburn/reddish-brown hair and round glasses, wearing a black oversized shirt over a white top, holding what appears to be a Japanese newspaper. The setting looks like an outdoor urban area, with a chain link fence visible behind him.

  4. Two young Japanese people stand apart on an outdoor terrace with a metal railing, set against a bright urban campus backdrop with trees and buildings. On the left, a young man in a light blue oversized shirt holds an open blue umbrella despite the clear, sunny sky. On the right, a young woman with her hair in a bun wears a white mesh top and a blue polka-dot midi skirt. Both face the camera with neutral, serious expressions.

  8. A young Black man stands next to a young white man in a prison corridor. The Black man is wearing a grey tracksuit and the white man is wearing a white vest with dark blue trousers. He also has tattoos across his arms and neck. They both wear sombre expressions. Behind them is an open door to what looks like a cleaning cupboard.

    Wasteman


    Cinema
  9. A young white man reclines against pink cushions, shirtless and wearing a jeweled, sequined costume with blue and pink embellishments. He holds a snake aloft in one hand while a large, fan-like peacock feather display spreads behind him in shimmering teal and gold. The scene has a theatrical, fantastical quality with rich, saturated colors.

    Pink Narcissus


    Cinema
  10. Animated image of Porky Pig in a white spacesuit as he runs away from a flying saucer behind him, which is emanating a green ray. We see flames all around him as he runs across what appears to be the surface of a rocky planet.

    Cinema
  11. An animated image of a young Asian girl holding onto the back of a superhero character who is wearing a red suit. A multi-coloured cape billows around them as they head directly towards the viewer, with bright beams of light emanating from the superhero's head.

    Cinema
  12. A woman in her forties dressed in 18th century clothing holds her hands out to the ceiling of the room she is standing in, her eyes lifted up to the heavens in ecastasy. Around her lots of men and women dance and flail around her, some of their images blurry. We see paintings and candelabras on the walls.

    The Testament Of Ann Lee


    Cinema
  13. A young Iraqi girl in a school uniform — white blouse and dark pinafore — carries a large rooster in her arms while facing an older seated man wearing a kufi cap and glasses. They appear to be in conversation inside a covered market or bazaar, with goods and food items visible on tables behind the man.

    The President’s Cake


    Cinema
  14. The image shows a sombre family scene with two adults and two children sitting on a bed against a weathered wall, capturing the intimate and difficult circumstances portrayed in the film. One of the children is resting their head on their mother's lap. The warm, muted color palette and naturalistic setting are characteristic of the film's visual style.

    All That's Left Of You


    Cinema
  15. A bright animated image showing a young girl with short black hair crouched down in a forest glade, her left hand resting on a body lying on the floor. The body is covered with a very bright multicoloured cape and the person beneath it appears to be covered in a red body suit.

    Colour Box: Arco


    Cinema
  16. A Baroque painting from the 17th century, showing a dramatic religious scene. The composition features an elderly, bearded figure with a halo (indicating sainthood) in the lower portion, rendered in warm earth tones of orange and brown. Above him, an angel figure in flowing white drapery appears to be descending or in motion against a dark background. The painting demonstrates classic Baroque characteristics: dramatic chiaroscuro (the stark contrast between light and dark), dynamic movement suggested by the flowing fabrics and positioning of the figures, and the theatrical, emotionally charged composition. The use of tenebrism - where figures emerge from deep shadows into dramatic light - is particularly evident here.

    Exhibition On Screen: Caravaggio


    Cinema
  17. We see a collection of men and women of different ages wearing black early 20th century clothing. They all face away from the camera apart from a small blonde haired child who stands amongst them, looking directly at the camera with a sombre expression. We can see a staircase behind them.

    Sound Of Falling


    Cinema
  18. A bearded, scruffy man in his fifties wearing a ragged beanie hat stares with an incredulous expression at the viewer. He is wearing a shiny silver suit with black pipes sticking out of it and various random objects are floating around him, including a small wheel and a toy soldier.

    Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die


    Cinema
  19. We see a man in a white military-style uniform seated at the head of a long white-draped table, staring directly at the camera with a stern expression. Several women are seated on both sides of the table, eating from bowls and plates with uneasy, somber expressions. The room has tall windows with slatted blinds in the background, casting a cold, institutional atmosphere.

    The Tasters


    Cinema
  20. A lone figure stands on a mist-shrouded bridge, bathed in ethereal blue light. Rays of light pierce through what appears to be a large latticed skylight or industrial ceiling above, cutting through thick fog or smoke below. The person — head bowed, dressed in dark clothing — leans against a wooden railing, creating a silhouette that feels deeply contemplative.

    Resurrection


    Cinema
  21. A younger woman (Julie Christie) with tousled blonde hair and blue eyes, dressed in a dark Victorian-era cloak with a lace collar, stands against a moss-covered tree in a woodland setting. The image has a warm, vintage film quality.

    Cinema
  22. NT Live: All My Sons


    Cinema
  23. We see a family - a father, mother and three children - moving along a high rocky outcrop, a black and white dog by their feet. They each have rucksacks on and we can see patches of green on the rocks as they move down the mountain.

    The Love That Remains


    Cinema
  24. The image shows a young man in the foreground wearing a distinctive tan/beige patterned sweater vest over a white shirt, sitting in what looks like a contemplative or somewhat uncertain pose. Behind him, visible through what appears to be a window or glass partition, are several other people including a woman in a striking red/burgundy textured jacket on the left.
