Hushpuppy lives with her daddy in “the Bathtub”, a small bayou community in the Mississippi Delta isolated from the world. When a hurricane hits and the waters rise, everything south of the levee is flooding… Told entirely from the perspective of the six-year-old heroine, this poetic post-Katrina fairy tale of survival has become one of the festival revelations of the past year. The 2003-born Quvenzhané Wallis became the youngest person ever to have received a Best Actress Oscar nomination for her role in Beasts of the Southern Wild. (English spoken)

Fiume o morte! Fiume o morte!
Igor Bezinović

On 12 September 1919, a troop of some three hundred soldiers under the leadership of the flamboyant war-loving Italian poet Gabriele D’Annunzio swooped into the Northern-Adriatic port town of Fiume, now Rijeka, wanting to annex the city to Italy. Over the course of the next 16 months, during what is regarded as one of the most bizarre militant sieges of all time his official photography team captured over 10,000 images. A century later, Igor Bezinović orchestrates a direct-action history lesson focused on the siege and its modern-day implications.

Wednesday, 11. 03. 2026 / 16:15 / Main Hall
A slowly smouldering moral thriller by Jafar Panahi, inspired by the director’s own experience of imprisonment. The film twists and turns as it probes difficult questions of revenge, trauma and forgiveness, all the while sustaining a vein of bitter, unsettling humour.
Winner of the Palme d’Or at Cannes.
