UKRAINIAN NEW WAVE: WE ARETue Jul 21, 2026
Ukrainian New Wave: The best short films of 2023–2024
Various, 2023 · 89' · Ukrainian · English subtitles
Dovzhenko Center, Kiev
The Dovzhenko Centre traditionally shows on the big screen an anthology of the best short films by young Ukrainian directors. "Ukrainian New Wave" was launched by the Oleksandr Dovzhenko National Centre in 2012. Since then, it can rightfully be considered the foundation for a young generation of directors who have become the voices of contemporary Ukrainian cinema. It was "Ukrainian New Wave" that launched the careers of Iryna Tsilyk, Antonio Lukich, Dmytro Sukholytkyi-Sobchuk, Pavlo Ostrikov, Oleksiy Radynski, Zoya Laktionova, Mykyta Lyskov, and many others. This year's selection, titled "Ukrainian New Wave. We Are," includes eight works from 2023–2024 — a mix of fiction, documentary, animated, and experimental films.
From the Past (2023), dir. Hanna Palamarchuk The smell of borscht that the director's grandmother cooked one sunny day brings back memories of childhood. Though hazy, they appear and vanish in a flash, yet carry a certain nostalgia and calm — moments of summer and warmth she wants to keep forever.
I Died in Irpin (2024), dir. Anastasiia Falileieva On February 24, 2022, the director and her boyfriend left Kyiv for Irpin. They spent ten days in the besieged town and managed to leave with the last evacuation convoy. Time has passed, but she has never shaken the feeling that she died in Irpin. This animated film reconstructs a real survival story through a personal, subjective lens.
My Morning Routine (2024), dir. Vadym Adamov "I wake up, then meditate for an hour and drink a glass of lemon water"... Have you seen something like this on social media? The director decided to show his own daily routine — one he's forced to live by, and one that also helps him reach his goals. With one difference: he is a 19-year-old soldier in the Ukrainian army, fighting on one of the hottest front lines in the world.
Additional Scenes (2024), dir. Roman Khimei, Yarema Malashchuk On the 377th day of the Russian-Ukrainian war, a married couple in Kyiv starts arguing over pillows — which one is for sleeping and which is for beauty. But the real question is: why are we even making a film about the war?
Blueberry Summer (2024), dir. Masha Kondakova This summer, Ksiusha, along with her mother and sister, is forced to pick blueberries in a forest near Kyiv to earn money for the family. But she gets distracted waiting for her beloved Misha. Flirting, they wander deeper and deeper into the forest, unaware of the danger.
Hello, I'm on the Mountain (2023), dir. Liza Pyrozhkova In the ruined city of Izium, in the Kharkiv region, Kremianets Mountain becomes an "island of connection," where people catch a signal to talk to their loved ones after months of Russian occupation.
I'm Taking a Walk (2023), dir. Daria Zhuravel Daria Zhuravel's autobiographical story is dedicated to childhood and to those who are no longer with us but whose presence accompanies us wherever we go.
Plasticine Dreams (2023), dir. Vadym Makarov A polyphony of voices unfolds a discussion about home — the voices of those who lost theirs to the war. Associations, memories, meanings: three letters, hundreds of things in between — home.

Jodorowsky's cult classic acid western "is peopled largely with corpses of men and animals and the survivors are gross, obscene caricatures who follow phony gospel-mongers and practice slavery. When El Topo (played by Jodorowsky) moves out of this world, he goes first to do battle with the Four Masters of the Desert (who have black-magic connotations probably inspired by the work of Aleister Crawley), and later to help free a colony of deformed and incestuously mutated cripples." Excerpted from Roger Ebert's review.

Film i Malmö membership required
Terry Gilliam’s The Adventures of Baron Munchausen is among the greatest of all fantasy films. Brought to life through the director’s layered sensory stimulation and visual luster, this filmic storybook follows the titular aged hero and a young girl gallivanting about in a series of tall tales, their journey returning adult viewers to their childhood and taking children on a fantastical escapade beyond their dreams.
Full of boundless imagination, incredible special effects, and witty Monty Python-esque humor, the splendors of its movie magic are often overshadowed by the story of its over-budget, yearlong, and unthinkably catastrophic production, followed by a truncated and disastrous release in 1988. Yet, part of what makes the film so miraculous is how over the years, the stigma surrounding its behind-the-scenes troubles subsided to make way for an enduring experience. Much like the director’s best films, from Brazil to The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, by some wonder, an impossible work survived its tumultuous creation only to flop at the box office, and then slowly develop into a beloved fantasy classic.

Based on the beloved memoir by Lidia Yuknavitch and marking the directorial debut of Kristen Stewart, The Chronology of Water is a raw and unflinching portrait of survival, sexuality, and self-invention.
The film traces Lidia’s life from her earliest memories in the Pacific Northwest, as a promising swimmer, through fractured relationships, near-motherhood, addiction, and encounters with artistic heroes. Told as a fluid memory wash, the story transforms trauma into art, embodying Yuknavitch’s defiant voice that made her work a modern cult classic. It is not only a chronicle of a woman becoming a writer, but a visceral journey through the wreckage and resilience of a life lived against the grain.

Film i Malmö membership required
Waves crash, birds scream, and rain pounds. Robert Eggers’ “The Lighthouse” wants to drive you a little mad. It’s not just a film about two people on the edge of sanity, it uses sound design and filmmaking tools to push you there too. It has the feel of watching someone else’s nightmare, and it’s not one that’s going to end well. While it’s ultimately a bit too self-conscious to provoke the existential dread and true terror of the best films like it, it’s still an impressive accomplishment thanks to Eggers’ fearlessness and a pair of completely committed performances.
Life is bleak for Thomas and Ephraim from the first gloomy frame of “The Lighthouse.” And I mean gloomy. This is a movie that will be listed as “black and white” but would more accurately be called “gray.” There are few distinct blacks or whites in a film that looks like an overcast evening even during the day. It opens with the two men, played by Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson, arriving to work a shift at a lighthouse on the edge of the world. Thomas, played by Dafoe, is the older one and the boss of the operation. He orders around Pattinson’s Ephraim, making sure he takes care of all of the daily duties like cleaning and repairing but always reminding him who’s in charge. Thomas refers to Ephraim in diminutive terms like “lad” and orders him around when he’s not telling a long-winded story, or farting.

Vad kan sticka hål på en kevlarsjäl?
Alex har alltid sett det som sin uppgift att hålla ordning på sin impulsive lillebror Robin och sin våldsamma och missbrukande krigsveteran till pappa. Vad Alex själv vill eller behöver har han knappt reflekterat över förrän han träffar Ines. Hon ger Alex en glimt av allt det där som han försakat: kärlek, intimitet, tonårsliv. Men när Alex för en stund släpper taget om sin familj, så lämnar det snart lillebror Robin i fritt fall. Där Alex med hjälp av kärleken öppnar en glipa i kevlaret kring sin själ, kommer Robin att låta det hårdna än mer i den våldsamma miljö som han blir indragen i.

His younger brother Robin falls into a life of increasing violence.

Holy Grail is the Pythons at their best. Every moment, every line, every shot, every joke and every joke without a proper punchline is expertly composed and perfectly fine-tuned to an imperfect degree. This was caused by the production’s infamous low budget which was largely financed by the likes of Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and Elton John. Clearly a low budget doesn’t constrain the Python’s comedy, or, perhaps is constrains it in the perfect way that suits their style and the tone of their works.

One of director John Woo’s most ambitious and emotionally charged films, this intense action epic follows the fates of three friends—gangsters Ben (Tony Leung Chiu-wai), Frank (Jacky Cheung), and Paul (Waise Lee)—as they leave behind 1960s Hong Kong to pull off a smuggling job in war-torn Vietnam, only to find their loyalties to one another tested when they are taken prisoner by the Vietcong. The most expensive Hong Kong film ever made at the time of its production—an arduous undertaking that drove Woo to the brink to realize his vision—BULLET IN THE HEAD blends the filmmaker’s celebrated action spectacle with a harrowing depiction of the POW experience that has earned it comparisons to THE DEER HUNTER.

Paterson (Adam Driver) is a bus driver in the city of Paterson, New Jersey - they share the name. Every day, Paterson adheres to a simple routine: he drives his daily route, observing the city as it drifts across his windshield and overhearing fragments of conversation swirling around him; he writes poetry into a notebook; he walks his dog; he stops in a bar and drinks exactly one beer. He goes home to his wife, Laura (Golshifteh Farahani). By contrast, Laura's world is ever changing. New dreams come to her almost daily, each a different and inspired project. Paterson loves Laura and she loves him. He supports her newfound ambitions; she champions his secret gift for poetry. The history and energy of the City of Paterson is a felt presence in the film and its simple structure unfolds over the course of a single week. The quiet triumphs and defeats of daily life are observed, along with the poetry evident in its smallest details.

The Dresser is a 1983 historical drama directed by journeyman filmmaker Peter Yates (who was behind movies from a wide variety of genres, from the Steve McQueen action thriller Bullitt in ’68, to the sports coming-of-age drama Breaking Away in ’79), and adapted from the play of the same name by Ronald Harwood. It follows the head of a Shakespearean acting company, referred to only as “Sir” (Albert Finney), and the loyal dresser that has been by his side for over a decade, Norman (Tom Courtenay). As England plunges into WWII, this troop travels from town to town trying to lift the nation’s spirits, led with an iron fist by the often tyrannical and uncompromising Sir. However, as it becomes increasingly clear that Sir is losing his mental facilities, the rest of the actors begin to question if he is still fit to keep performing. There is an inherent queerness to the world that The Dresser is set in, but in addition, the character of Norman, even though never explicitly referred to as gay, is played with all the mannerisms and obvious signals of a theater queen. Norman has no personal life outside being Sir’s right hand, and there is a combination of reverent adoration, submission, and obsession in how he behaves with him. The two form more of a marriage than Sir has with his own wife, and by the time their time together comes to an end, Norman has lost more than an employer; he’s lost a life partner. Some of these traits may feel a little obvious and overdone looking back, but Courtenay embeds it all with an honesty that feels authentic. (Jorge Molina, queerty)
LOVE IS COLDER THAN DEATHWed May 20, 2026
Rainer Werner Fassbinder, 1969 · 88 minutes · German · English subtitles
After establishing himself in the avant garde theater world of 60’s Berlin, the legendary auteur Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s first feature film premiered at the 1969 Berlin Film Festival. Immediate responses were mixed, but looking back, we can already see Fassbinder’s audacity from the first scene.
Fassbinder plays the uncredited role of Franz, a tough lowlife recruited by the Syndicate. The leisurely-paced opening act concludes with Bruno (Ulli Lommel), a seasoned criminal and employee of the Syndicate, coercing Franz and his girlfriend Johanna (Hanna Schygulla) into a series of increasingly violent crimes.
“After Bruno, Franz and Joanna seal their fate through a series of short-sighted, impulsive decisions, there’s nothing left to do but pull off the big hit they’ve been planning. A joint gets cased… a target is selected… witnesses are disposed of… weapons are prepared… the meticulous arrangements are put in place, discussed and mentally rehearsed. But second thoughts, mixed emotions, bad luck and confusions of lust each take their toll on the scheme, leading to misplaced bravado, faulty communication and plain old dirty double crossing.” (credit: David Blakeslee)

Blank-faced bug killer Bill Lee (Peter Weller) and his dead-eyed wife, Joan (Judy Davis), like to get high on Bill's pest poisons while lounging with Beat poet pals. After meeting the devilish Dr. Benway (Roy Scheider), Bill gets a drug made from a centipede.

With Dead Man, his first period piece, Jim Jarmusch imagined the nineteenth-century American West as an existential wasteland, delivering a surreal reckoning with the ravages of industrialization, the country’s legacy of violence and prejudice, and the natural cycle of life and death. Accountant William Blake (Johnny Depp) has hardly arrived in the godforsaken outpost of Machine before he’s caught in the middle of a fatal lovers’ quarrel. Wounded and on the lam, Blake falls under the watch of the outcast Nobody (Gary Farmer), who guides his companion on a spiritual journey, teaching him to dispense poetic justice along the way. Featuring austerely beautiful black-and-white photography by Robby Müller and a live-wire score by Neil Young, Dead Man is a profound and unique revision of the western genre.

Upon his release, he sets out to seduce the hanged man’s widow, but he hasn’t reckoned on the resistance of her children, especially her son. So begins a battle – between, as the preacher’s tattooed knuckles would have it, love and hate – to the death... (Geoff Andrew, BFI)

Film i Malmö membership required
During a time when America criminalized all homosexual activities and forms of queer expression, the 1959 film “Some Like It Hot” broke free of the conservative constraints of the Hays Code and presented a film featuring crossdressing, sexual fluidity and tolerance to homosexuality. Starring Marilyn Monroe, Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon and directed by Billy Wilder, the gender-bending comedy continues to be tasteful and just as hilarious today.
The film follows Joe (Curtis) and Jerry (Lemmon) as the pair flees the mob in Chicago by joining an all-female traveling band. To be able to go undercover, the two don female personas, named Josephine and Daphne, and successfully join the band heading to Miami. Along the way, they meet Sugar Kane (Monroe), and she throws a wrench in their caper, as Joe quickly has the desire to pursue her. Once they reach Miami, Joe juggles yet another persona as a male, rich softie to win her over. Jerry, however, finds himself actually liking being Daphne, and inadvertently attracts an old millionaire named Osgood, played by Joe E. Brown, despite trying to shake him. While all these shenanigans ensue, the mob is still right around the corner.
Featuring crossdressing as a main component, the film bashed against the Hays Code, which, until 1968, prevented Hollywood movies from having any sort of lustful kissing, scenes of passion, homosexuality, gender fluidity or interracial relationships, among other constraints. To depict actors Curtis and Lemmon, who up to that point had always played strictly masculine and sometimes womanizer-like roles, as gender-bending feminine men who lean into their identities and don’t dismiss it as immoral, shook audiences back in the late 50s. Not only this, but the film’s smashing success was one of the key factors in abandoning the Hays Code almost a decade later. -Savannah Burger, The California Aggie

Arthur C Clarke famously said there are just two possibilities: that we are alone in the universe, or we aren’t, and both are equally terrifying. The first terror is harder to put on film, but director Denis Villeneuve brings the second to life with this freaky and audacious contact sci-fi – and makes it something other than terror. Arrival is a big, risky, showy movie that jumps up on its high-concept highwire and disdains a net. And yes, there are uneasy moments of silliness when it wobbles a little. But this is an exciting film, with a great performance from Amy Adams, all about the romance of other worlds, and this one. (Marcus Christenson, The Guardian)

Palme d'Or winner, about a mentaly unstable veteran working nights as a taxi driver. Driving around the decaying streets of New York, perceived decadence and sleaze fuels his urge for violent action.
"Robert De Niro is in almost every frame of Martin Scorsese's feverish, horrifyingly funny movie about a lonely New York cab-driver. De Niro's inflamed, brimming eyes are the focal point of the compositions. He's Travis Bickle, an outsider who can't find any point of entry into human society. He drives nights because he can't sleep anyway; surrounded by the night world of the uprooted- whores, pimps, transients- he hates New York with a Biblical fury, and its filth and smut obsess him. This ferociously powerful film is like a raw, tabloid version of Notes from Underground. Scorsese achieves the quality of trance in some scenes, and the whole movie has a sense of vertigo. " Pauline Kael
"The overall idea was to make it like a cross between Gothic horror and the New York Daily News" Martin Scorsese

MALMÖ ANTIFASCISTA invites you to CINEMA RESISTENZA's presentation of Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom - a film presentation commemorating the 81st Anniversary of Italy’s Liberation from Nazifascism on 25 April 1945The film is notorious, and rightly so, for the extremity of what it depicts. It has been banned, censored, and condemned in numerous countries. Yet to dismiss it as mere provocation is to miss its intellectual core. Pasolini was a poet, a novelist, a philosopher, and a polemicist; in Salò, he brings all of these faculties to bear on the question of what happens when power becomes absolute and the human body is reduced to an object of consumption.

As Christina Tucker wrote last year, Wicked has been very gay from the beginning. The Gregory Macguire novel, from which the stage musical and films are adapted, provides backstory for the LGBTQ cultural touchstone The Wizard of Oz. Christina summed it up the queerness of the 1939 The Wizard of Oz film well:
“It’s easy to point at the sole presence of Judy Garland and say ‘case closed, a gay film was made here today.’ But everything about the story of the Wizard of Oz tracks neatly to a queer reading, pretty much from the moment Dorothy is stuck at a crossroads and the Scarecrow reminds her ‘Of course, some people go both ways.’ Plus, it’s the story of a ragtag group of misfits traveling, who all discover they are fine the way they are; they just have to believe in themselves. Dorothy leaves a drab farm life to hang out in a technicolor city and gets a pair of cute shoes — a coming out for the ages! ‘Somewhere Over The Rainbow’ is so obvious I don’t even need to say more than the title, do I?”

The all-American obsession with celebrity turns monstrous in this deliciously subversive (and disturbingly prescient) satire of our television-mediated, true-crime-obsessed age. In a career breakthrough, Nicole Kidman delivers a diabolical deconstruction of the girl next door as a local TV weather reporter whose perfectly perky facade belies a murderous heart, as her ruthless pursuit of fame ensnares three disaffected teens in a sordid, tabloid-ready scandal. Deftly deploying shifting perspectives, faux-documentary interviews, and a supporting cast featuring Joaquin Phoenix, Matt Dillon, and Casey Affleck, director Gus Van Sant adds provocative layers of meaning to this darkly funny examination of suburban sociopathy.

We are thrilled to welcome Marcus Carlsson to Hypnos Theatre to introduce this premiere screening of his award-winning film Biodlaren!
Innan visningen, välkomna på regissörsamtal med Marcus Carlsson på Fleurus kl.17:00. är nuvarande sveriges endast filmuthyrningbutik och cafe – en filial av Hypnos Theatre – som ligger på Karlskronaplan 11 i Malmö.
Biodlaren är ett finstämt drama om en far och en dotter som på olika sätt bär på en gemensam sorg. Filmen skildrar med stor känslighet både det vardagliga och det existentiella, från bikupans surrande till en relation i gungning. Det är en berättelse om förlust, tystnad och längtan efter närhet, men också om hoppet som kan spira när man vågar möta det svåra. Biodlaren utforskar kärleken, naturen och livets cykler, samtidigt som den berättar om en längtan efter ett sammanhang, långt från storstädernas brus.I huvudrollen ser vi Adam Lundgren (Torka aldrig tårar utan handskar, Känn ingen sorg, Vår tid är nu) och vid hans sida två imponerande värmlänningar – guldbaggenominerade Marika Lindström (Bränn alla mina brev, Vår tid är nu, Om jag vänder mig om) och nya stjärnskottet Hedvig Nilsson.

QUEER THURSDAYS

Erotic horror movie The Hunger follows Miriam Blaylock, played by the ever-alluring Catherine Deneuve. She’s a former Egyptian princess who has collected a series of lovers over the centuries to keep her company in eternity. Unbeknownst to her current beau, John (David Bowie), her promise of eternal youth and beauty is more temporary than he hoped for, and as he ages rapidly into decrepitude, Miriam focuses her attention on a new potential lover, Sarah (Susan Sarandon).
The Hunger is as close as the lesbian vampire genre ever came to ambivalence in terms of sexuality. Miriam is a monster whose desires aren’t positioned as a symptom of her evil, and her queerness is a sign of her intense capacity for love that goes beyond humanity’s understanding. She’s a villain who happens to be queer, not a queer villain. That feels kind of revolutionary considering the film is turning 40. And yet, it really only could have been made in that year, sandwiched between the dying embers of ‘70s excess and the dual dangers of AIDS and Reaganism. Sarah may reject Miriam’s dark gift, but by the film’s conclusion, she has embraced a queer (potentially polyamorous) life. Desire and death are not inextricably entwined. It is a cycle that can be concluded. Kayleigh Donaldson, Paste magazine.

THE FUTURE'S MOST WANTED FUGITIVE
The film follows Keanu Reeves’ Johnny, a data courier who carries files internally thanks to an implant in his brain. However, after accidentally taking on too much data that risks his own life and being chased across the world by the Yakuza, Johnny finds himself in a race against time to get the data out of his head and into the hands of its recipient before it’s too late.
Thankfully, the film as a whole is about as ridiculous as it sounds – and it’s all the better for it. Too many genre movies fall into the trap of taking themselves extremely seriously, and it’s always to the detriment of the final product. Luckily for us, Johnny Mnemonic is not one of those movies. Yes, it’s complete nonsense, and no, it shouldn’t work – but if you switch off and enjoy the ride, there’s plenty of fun to be had. As a whole piece, the movie just clicks. It’s sprawling and silly and has no right to work at all, but it somehow just does. It’s not a masterpiece by any means, but it was definitely misunderstood at the time. As genre movies go it’s heaps of fun, and more than worth your time – just don’t try to overthink it. Matt Taylor, Starburst magazine.

NOTES ON A SCANDALThu Apr 9, 2026
QUEER THURSDAYS
Richard Eyre, 2006 · 92 minutes · OV-en subs
Film i Malmö membership required
I love a good juicy potboiler, and it doesn’t hurt when the leads are women (played in this case by the superlative Judi Dench and the wonderful Cate Blanchett). It does hurt that Notes on a Scandal’s plot—adapted from a novel by Zoe Heller—trades in stereotypes of the “vampire lesbian,” the frigid spinster, and the bitter, battle axe school teacher, but Dench’s acting mitigates these images to an extent that makes the film worth seeing.
Dench plays Barbara Covett, the longtime school teacher intrigued by the lithe (and blithe) new art teacher, Sheba Hart. Their names set up the basic plot device: through prurient entries in her long-running journal, to which the audience is privy through deliciously deluded voiceovers, Barbara writes that she feels Sheba is “the one I’ve waited for,” and begins to covet her close friendship and even her body, at which she gazes with a barely contained lascivious longing throughout the film.
In the typical vampire lesbian story, though, the older woman’s young “victim” is an unspoiled innocent. Although Barbara here notes Sheba’s creamy, unblemished peach complexion, she’s hardly a virgin. Sheba, in fact, is a spoiled, arrogant woman, who feels entitled to what her whims dictate. She teaches because she’s bored with keeping her home; she can’t articulate why she has the affair with [a] student, except to say that she wanted him. She unloads her superficial needs on Barbara, who soaks them up and twists them for her own purposes, but scenes of the two women talking in Sheba’s studio clarify that, in fact, the relationship suits Sheba, since Barbara is an attentive, apparently self-abnegating friend...

A fairy tale grounded in poignant reality, Terry Gilliam’s magnificent, Manhattan-set The Fisher King features Jeff Bridges and Robin Williams in two of their most brilliant roles. Bridges plays a former radio shock jock reconstructing his life after a scandal, and Williams a homeless man on a quest for the Holy Grail—which he believes to be hidden somewhere on the Upper East Side. Unknowingly linked by their pasts, the two men aid each other on a fanciful journey toward their own humanity. This singular American odyssey features a witty script by Richard LaGravenese, evocative cinematography by Roger Pratt, and superb supporting performances by Amanda Plummer and an Oscar-winning Mercedes Ruehl, all harnessed by Gilliam into a compassionate, funny modern-day myth.

In Annihilation, a biologist, psychologist, physicist, anthropologist, and paramedic enter the shimmer — a mysterious and expanding sector marked by increasingly unnerving mutations. The shimmer is full of contradictions, beauty and terror coexisting. Rainbow light touches down on snarled branches. A rainbow beach and its crystalline trees would be enchanting if not for the presence of human bones, arranged as if an intentional warning. The multicolored flowers that spackle the shimmer’s landscapes become more horrifying once they coexist with fragmented human remains.
The shimmer distorts the team’s memory. Days become months. It’s dreamlike, but it quickly gives way to nightmarish gore. What starts as a fairly straightforward sci-fi horror hybrid gradually becomes something much weirder.
Natalie Portman is magnetic as the film’s protagonist. Jennifer Jason Leigh’s very recognizable delivery adds to the foreboding tone that looms over the shimmer. Tessa Thompson gives a much different — but still great — performance than her usual, playing a character that’s more timid and uncertain than her other recent roles. Tuva Novotny is subtle, but her characterization of stifled fear is affecting. And then Gina Rodriguez steals the show with a standout performance. And no I don’t just say that because she plays a confident and muscly soft butch lesbian with an undercut who opens a beer bottle in that way where you slam it against a table edge with your hand. But yes, those details are also important!!!! (Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya, Autostraddle)

Quick summary: Alike is a smart, introspective high school senior, struggling to come to terms with her sexual identity. She knows she's a lesbian, but not yet sure how that factor plays into the persona she presents to the world. The film follows her through a few months of her senior year, as she tries on different identities and works to figure out who she is, what she values, and how she wants other people to see her. Best time to watch: When you're in the mood for a coming-of-age film that is actually well-done and not cliché as fuck.
As part of a female, coming-of-age movie marathon. Invite some friends over and watch "Pariah," "The Edge of Seventeen" (Fremon Craig, 2016), "Mustang" (Ergüven, 2015), "Girlhood" (Sciamma, 2014), "Now and Then" (Linka Glatter, 1995), "Glue" (Dos Santos, 2006), etc.
With your parent or tone-deaf relative who desperately needs a primer on gender identity. Do you know someone who voted for Trump? Find a way to make them watch and talk about this movie.
Worst time to watch: When you're frenzied/anxious and can't stop checking your phone. Nothing makes me angrier than seeing someone checking their phone in the middle of a movie. Before I watch anything, I switch my phone off and minimize all distractions. If I'm watching with another person, talking is strictly forbidden. TURN OFF YOUR FUCKING PHONE. This isn't exclusive to "Pariah," but I've never mentioned it before and felt it needed to be stated.
Also... don't watch this movie (or any movie) when you don't have time to finish it in one sitting. This is another thing that makes me want to scream. I have friends who will watch half of a movie, stop, cook dinner, take a bath, then finish watching. What?! Who told you this was okay? You're completely messing up the flow! This is sacrilege. If you can't watch a movie in one sitting without checking your phone, don't watch movies at all. (Woman In Revolt)

Monster tells the story of Aileen from her meeting with her girlfriend Selby Wall – based on her real-life lover Tyria Moore – to her attempts to ‘go straight’ and give up prostitution, and the savage beating and rape she endures from one of her clients that sees her commit her first murder. From there, Aileen kills six more clients before she is apprehended by law enforcement in a biker bar and tried in court. After a lengthy court case, she is found guilty of her crimes and sentenced to death. Monster explores Wuornos’ relationship and struggles to fit into society after enduring years of abuse from those she should have been able to trust, as well as the savage crimes she claims were all in self-defense. The juxtaposition of these facets of her life never lets the audience feel comfortable, creating a palpable sense of dread and a ticking time bomb ready to explode. Jenkins’ approach to the case does not justify Wuornos’ crimes, nor does it paint her as a psychotic killer who revels in death. Monster treads the line between horrific and devastating, culminating in its emotional final scenes which see Wuornos walking toward the final days of her life in prison. (Rebecca Sayce, STARBURST)

Starring Gina Gershon and Jennifer Tilly, Bound is a story of Violet and Corky, a mobster’s girlfriend and an ex-con who fall in love. But, because Violet’s boyfriend is trigger-happy mobster Caesar, their love affair must be secret. When Violet comes up with a plan to steal $2 million from Caesar and frame the theft on one of Caesar’s mob partners, she needs Corky to help her pull it off. Things don’t go quite as planned, and Corky and Violet are forced to improvise in order to stay alive and stay together. Beyond being an exceedingly entertaining, edge-of-your-seat thriller with all the violence any true lover of crime dramas could crave, what sets Bound truly apart from all the other films in its genre is the way The Wachowskis build the characters of Corky and Violet, the way they make them three-dimensional, much more than props or tropes to further the narrative. Looking back, one could see that Lana and Lilly Wachowski saw themselves in Corky and Violet; as two women trapped in a world in which they didn’t fit, busting to get out, to express themselves, to break barriers and defy the expectations put upon them. In exploring, building and bringing Corky and Violet to life, the Wachowskis were able to find a voice for their societal frustrations, using their artistic vision to bring characters to the screen that were contrary to what Hollywood generally permits there. The result is a film that features characters that are not only groundbreaking, but stand the test of time. (Catherine Springer, Awardswatch)

Med idé och musik av punkbandet Golvad Grävling och med manus och regi av teaterkollektivet Stora Maskiner har en punkopera blivit till. Tillsammans med en nystartad teaterensemble på sju skådespelare från Malmö fylldes Barnens Scen av skrik, sång och dans.
“Allt kommer inte att bli bra” är en punkopera som tar oss in i en värld där vänskap och identitet ställs på prov. Pjäsen skildrar hur det är att vara tonåring i en småstad där man inte passar in någonstans samtidigt som man tvingas stå upp mot vuxenvärlden."Bippi och Boppe har varit vänner så länge de kan minnas. Ännu längre har de längtat efter att få lämna den lilla staden Ängelholm. Som punkare passar de inte in i det trötta småstadslivet och när andra drömmer om karriärer, hockey och fläskstek, drömmer Bippi och Boppe om en värld utan krig och orättvisa. När Ängelholms gammelpunkare Anarki-Arne ställer till med fest lägger Bippi och Boppe alla sina pengar på sprit, till den grad att de två vännerna inte har en krona över till mer än en bulle. Vad händer när Bippi tappar bort sin vän mitt i natten och tvingas konfrontera sina rädslor på egen hand? Och vad ska Boppe ta sig till när det visar sig att det finns en annan galax därute som väntar på honom? Och framförallt, vem är Fågelmannen?"
Stort tack till Elias Bauer och Tintin Bern för det fantastiska arbetet med filmning och klippning av föreställningen.

ALIEN
Ridley Scott, 1979 · 117 minutes · OV-en subs
Film i Malmö membership required
In honor of international women's day, this March we will be screening the first (and best) 4 Alien movies. Female-led horror at its finest.
IN SPACE NO ONE CAN HEAR YOU SCREAM. During its return to the earth, commercial spaceship Nostromo intercepts a distress signal from a distant planet. When a three-member team of the crew discovers a chamber containing thousands of eggs on the planet, a creature inside one of the eggs attacks an explorer. The entire crew is unaware of the impending nightmare set to descend upon them when the alien parasite planted inside its unfortunate host is birthed.
Scott’s choice to ultimately center his film around the strength of a female character was hardly the kind of thing that other late-’70s action-driven blockbusters dug into. A female badass like Ripley was something new, something bold, and Weaver and Scott made good on the promise of such a character — and she’s still one of the most memorable and enduring heroines ever. She saves the world, saves herself, saves her cat, and still finds the time to craft one last log entry to tell the world what has transpired and what’s she done to keep the monsters at bay. Need to get a job done? Send Ripley. Send a woman. -Kate Erbland, IndieWire.

THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH & MOONAGE DAYDREAMSat Mar 7, 2026
Ten years have passed since the departure of The Starman, the human-anigma and music icon, David Bowie. His legacy remains far-reaching and is still evident in pop culture today. There is hardly any one of us who hasn't been affected by his art. This March, we will pay tribute to his artistry by showing two films with and about him.
17:00 | THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH (Nicolas Roeg, 1976, 138') The Man Who Fell to Earth is a daring exploration of science fiction as an art form. The story of an alien on an elaborate rescue mission provides the launching pad for Nicolas Roeg’s visual tour de force, a formally adventurous examination of alienation in contemporary life. Rock legend David Bowie, in his acting debut, completely embodies the title role, while Candy Clark, Buck Henry, and Rip Torn turn in pitch-perfect supporting performances.
19:20 - BREAK (30 mins) Doors open to get in/leave.
19:45 | MOONAGE DAYDREAM (Brett Morgen, 2022, 135') A cinematic odyssey exploring Bowie's creative, spiritual and musical journey. From the visionary mind of Brett Morgen, Moonage Daydream features captivating, never-before-seen footage and performances spanning David Bowie's 54-year career. The film includes 40 exclusively remastered Bowie songs and is the first film ever sanctioned by the Bowie Estate, with local access to the artists' archives.

Longing for a queer love story with a happy ending? Look no furter than Imagine me & you! The gold standard. The blueprint. The rom-com that launched a thousand “wait… am I gay?” realizations.

When a police inspector is murdered in hospital, the investigation led by detective Martin Beck uncovers reports of police misconduct and a possible revenge motive.
Groundbreaking early Nordic noir, made by Bo Widerberg after seeing French Connection. It's a bleak and decidedly uncozy mystery, all shot with handheld camera without mounts in documentarian style(parts of the riveting ending action scene was deemed to dangerous by the insurance company and had to be filmed by Widerberg himself). A smash hit on it's release, 750000 Swedes went to the cinema to see it, and it won the Guldbagge for best movie.

Terrence Malick, 1978 · 94 minutes · OV-en subs
Film i Malmö membership required
Days of Heaven is a tragic romance and slo-mo melodrama which established Malick’s most recognisable authorial signature: his reverence for the fading, deepening sunlight of dusk which made him virtually the high priest of the “golden hour”.
It is set in 1916, with some of the US feverishly excited about the fortunes still to be made in the vast swathes of still unexploited farmland and also aware of the looming inevitability of getting involved in the European war. Three drifters from Chicago arrive in the Texas panhandle in the north of the state, hoping to get seasonal farm labouring work. Abby (Brooke Adams), is a beautiful, quiet young woman with a kid sister Linda (Linda Manz), an annoying, entertaining chatterbox who is also watchful and slightly scared by how vulnerable they are; she is the film’s deadpan narrator, coolly accepting their hardship and survival stratagems. With them is Abby’s lover, the brooding and hot-tempered Bill (Richard Gere), who has fled the city after killing a factory foreman and is now posing as Abby’s brother...

::::::::::::::::::::::::::: a visionary film about vision ::::::::::::::::::::::::: ::::::: the act of watching, with all its fascinations and limitations ::::::::
Der Himmel über Berlin – The Sky or Heavens over Berlin – began as an investigation into Germany’s then-divided city ... its angels, an inspired afterthought. Before seeing blood as red. Tasting coffee. Feeling the cold. A silk stocking muted the angel’s vision of the world. A silk stocking employed as a filter by the legendary cinematographer, Henri Alekan - responsible for the haunting gothic chiaroscuro in Jean Cocteau’s 1946 La Belle et la Bête - whom Wenders coaxed out of retirement and honored with the name of the circus.
Few modern films have made the transition to classic status as quickly as Wenders´s tale of a guardian angel falling in love, falling to earth in a divided Berlin for a melancholy trapeze artist - a canny merging of cerebral formal experimentalism and unabashed popular romanticism done up with bold stylings (black-and-white, existential voiceover, languorous pacing) and content (overt symbolism and culture blending, from Rilke-inspired poetry to Nick Cave’s post-punk anthems)… Timelessness. It dont give a damn if you streamed it last week or rented it from the video store decades ago …

We began this series of Béla Tarr films to honor his long-time collaborator László Krasznahorkai as 2025’s recipient of the Nobel Prize in Literature.

Radu Jude, 2025 · 170 minutes · Romanian · English subtitles
With DRACULA we are thrilled to see director Radu Jude’s creative, anarchistic turn on big screen, while his conventional, Kontinental ’25 is still fresh in our minds. You probably haven’t heard of Radu Jude, I hadn’t. But now that I have… It’s apparent that he is working like no one else in the business.
“[Dracula]’s fucking nuts … A film that will be studied for decades!” (rogerebert.com)
Transylvania is widely known as the birthplace of Dracula, widely known that is, outside Transylvania itself, whose residents had to read about this local-imported fantasy in translation, thrust upon them by the Irish author Bram Stoker.
Jude’s Dracula is e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g – except (but including) the austere depictions of Dracula throughout film history. It is Dracula from the POV of a Romanian director who tries everything to create a film about Dracula, all the while critiquing everything from IP to AI, and subverting and innovating on as many cinematic traditions as possible – a film about “Dracula … built more like Frankenstein” (Variety)
Jude promises a kaleidoscopic and, according to him, super-commercial movie if you like “strong feelings, sex, nudity, action, blood, vampires, AI-generated images, car-chases and comedy of the highest quality.”

A werewolf coming-of-age tale about two sisters on the brink of womanhood, Ginger Snaps has a complex subtextual queerness: While neither Brigitte (Emily Perkins) nor Ginger Fitzgerald (Katharine Isabelle) are expressly written as LGBTQ+, there’s plenty of queer meaning packed into the latter’s lycanthropic transformation. The film has been read alternately as a trans allegory, a bisexual bildungsroman, and a lesbian classic, but however you choose to interpret the story, there’s so much fun to be had between the delicious dialogue and fantastic practical effects.

Family isn't a word ... It's a sentence.
Royal Tenenbaum and his wife Etheline had three children and then they separated. All three children are extraordinary --- all geniuses. Virtually all memory of the brilliance of the young Tenenbaums was subsequently erased by two decades of betrayal, failure, and disaster. Most of this was generally considered to be their father's fault. "The Royal Tenenbaums" is the story of the family's sudden, unexpected reunion one recent winter.

As armies mass for a final battle that will decide the fate of the world--and powerful, ancient forces of Light and Dark compete to determine the outcome--one member of the Fellowship of the Ring is revealed as the noble heir to the throne of the Kings of Men. Yet, the sole hope for triumph over evil lies with a brave hobbit, Frodo, who, accompanied by his loyal friend Sam and the hideous, wretched Gollum, ventures deep into the very dark heart of Mordor on his seemingly impossible quest to destroy the Ring of Power.

VIIC WOODS
Viic Woods är soloprojektet från Victoria Skoglund, tidigare känd från Audrey och Mire Kay. Med debutalbumet Unravel Time (20 februari 2026) presenterar hon sitt mest personliga material hittills, poetisk, melankolisk indie med ett kraftfullt liveuttryck. På scen backas hon av livebandet The Dreamers, med Anna Tomlin Osbeck på bas och sång samt Per-Ola Eriksson på trummor. Tillsammans skapar de ett organiskt och dynamiskt sound där låtarna får ta plats och växa. Kvällen bjuder även på premiär för ett nytt visuellt samarbete med konstnären Maja Daniels, som adderar en extra dimension till liveupplevelsen.
EMMER
Emmer är ett popband från Malmö med influenser från 90-talet. Emmer är fina melodier, skrammel och distade gitarrer. Med medlemmar från band som Scraps of Tape, Albert, Since our first guitar, Veloria och Like Honey upplevs Emmer som ett vant liveband trots att gruppen gjort relativt få spelningar. De enkla poplåtarna är mer eller mindre dränkta i distortion och man kan upptäckta stänk av postrock- och shoegaze-element i dem. Emmer har släppt ett par EP och singlar och släpper under 2026 ny musik.

Teenager Owen is just trying to make it through life in the suburbs when his classmate introduces him to a mysterious late-night TV show — a vision of a supernatural world beneath their own. In the pale glow of the television, Owen’s view of reality begins to crack.
This is perhaps the finest queer horror work to come out in the 2020s to date. Leave it to Jane Schoenbrun to come up with one of the most stirring trans slogans since David Lynch’s “fix your hearts or die.” In the short time since the release of this haunting psychological horror masterpiece a piece of pink graffiti bearing the words “There Is Still Time” has become something of a clarion call for anyone with a foot still in the closet. Schoenbrun surrounded that message in a mesmerizing and haunting allegory, announcing themself as one of our most gifted contemporary filmmakers in the process (Samantha Allen, Them).

There’s nothing little about Greta Gerwig’s rich, warm, bustlingly populated and passionately devoted new tribute to Louisa May Alcott’s classic novel of sisterhood. She revives Little Women as a coming-of-age movie, a marriage comedy, a sibling-rivalry drama – and perhaps most interestingly of all, an autofictional manifesto for writing your own life. [...] This is such a beguiling, generous film from Gerwig. There is a lot of love in it.

“Thelma & Louise” is in the expansive, visionary tradition of the American road picture. It celebrates the myth of two carefree souls piling into a 1956 T-Bird and driving out of town to have some fun and raise some hell. We know the road better than that, however, and we know the toll it exacts: Before their journey is done, these characters with have undergone a rite of passage, and will have discovered themselves.
What sets “Thelma & Louise” aside from the great central tradition of the road picture [...] is that the heroes are women this time: Working-class girlfriends from a small Arkansas town, one a waitress, the other a housewife, both probably ready to describe themselves as utterly ordinary, both containing unexpected resources.

Tova Mozard, 2025 · 90 minutes · English · Swedish subtitles
Some of you may recall the 3-projector exhibition of ILOVERUSS at Hypnos Theatre x Nordisk Panorama 2024. It was already at that time in the middle of the editing process that would result in the single-screen feature film ILOVERUSS, which premiered CPH:DOX 2025.
To install 3 projectors and accompanying screens in Hypnos Theatre meant we needed to remove all of but a small number of the cinema seats. It also meant we needed to put a hole in the wall to accommodate one of the projector’s throw distance. We also needed rip up and eventually replace all of the carpet. To say that ILOVERUSS took over Hypnos and my world for 2weeks, doesn’t quite capture the extent of it. – there was all of the preparation and the dismantling, even the sign for the exhibition still hangs outside of the door into the theatre.
but this is only interesting because of what the artist and director Tova Mozard did with ILOVERUSS. She found not only a profound friendship, but a screen-ready and uniquely compelling character in Russ – a long time resident of L.A. with a very, very long list of uncredited extra roles in television and movies – and then she centered him. The film largely depicts the daily life of a friendship through 20 years of raw and personal footage offering “the backside of the seductive movie city […] a world of diners, swimming pools and bungalows, portrayed with an artist’s eye for the sunny Californian surface – and for the twilight of the mind that over the years settles over her close friend.” (CPH:DOX) But more interestingly, what settles into the viewer, at least this viewer who spent weeks with it looping in the surround, is how unsettling it is that we can only live without comprehending that each and every “extra” lives a deep, profound life. Not everyone is as camera-ready as Russ, having spent decades thinking of himself in front of cameras, without it really ever capturing him, until now.

Not quite a romcom, Anderson’s 1950s haute couture gothic Phantom Thread (2017) is a (somewhat twisted) romance with a generous dash of black comedy. Day-Lewis reunites with Anderson to give the director a quieter but no less finely drawn performance, as a tightly wound London fashion house panjandrum romancing an increasingly frustrated younger muse played by Vicky Krieps. In Anderson’s films, love can ache, but in Phantom Thread the romantic discord is a source of much wicked humour.

****************************************** The great cinematic mythmaker of the San Fernando Valley, Paul Thomas Anderson, stages uniquely American tales of ambition, destiny, downfall, and redemption. His films might, at first glance, appear to deal with the mundane. And yet, there are always hints of the fantastic in his work—happenings and encounters so unlikely, and so seismic, that the only explanation could be a kind of cosmic fate. With his latest film creating a buzz in the wider film world, we thought to delve into PTA’s whimsical, slightly dark-humoured stories this February. A perfect month to spend in the comfort of a movie theatre!

KONTINENTAL ’25Fri Feb 6, 2026
PREMIERE!
Radu Jude, 2025 · 109 minutes · Romanian · English subtitles
Winner of Best Screenplay at the Berlin Film Festival 2025, KONTINENTAL '25 is a low-budget, dark and razer-sharp satire by the anarchistic, critically-lauded Romanian director Radu Jude. With his earlier films - Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn and Do Not Expect Too Much From the End of the World, Jude established a unique style in breaking rules of genre, rationality and even decency.
Blending drama and comedy, KONTINENTAL '25 dissects topics such as the housing crisis, post-socialist economics, nationalism and the power of language to maintain social status. It is a razor-sharp and absurd story that demonstrates director Radu Jude’s complete control over his means of expression. Continental ’25 is partly an homage to Roberto Rossellini’s classic Europa ’51, but made in an indie style with the modest means of a low-budget production. In Rossellini’s film, the moral dilemma leads to action that creates meaning and change. However, Jude’s protagonist Orsolya (Eszter Tompa) finds no one who understands her and becomes increasingly desperate for external validation. Her predicament would be easy to condemn if Orsolya’s moral relativism were not such an uncomfortably accurate reflection of a modern affliction few of us are completely immune to.
Tickets via link or at the door. Doors open 30 min before showtime.
Oddly enough, Jude will premier TWO FILMS in February. On on February 27 we will also show the premier of DRACULA. "It's fucking nuts ... A film that will be studied for decades!" (rogerebert.com)

We've decided to embrace the recent snowpocalypse by screening The Shining! Jack Torrance (Jack Nicholson) becomes winter caretaker at the isolated Overlook Hotel in Colorado, hoping to cure his writer's block. He settles in along with his wife, Wendy (Shelley Duvall), and his son, Danny (Danny Lloyd), who is plagued by psychic premonitions. As Jack's writing goes nowhere and Danny's visions become more disturbing, Jack discovers the hotel's dark secrets and begins to unravel into a homicidal maniac hell-bent on terrorizing his family. The Shining is without a doubt one of the most iconic horror classics. Based on Stephen King’s novel, the picture is a complex character study, a thrilling thriller, and an amazing horror story all in one. With an out-of-this-world cast, The Shining remains a cult film that’s ideal for a cold winter evening. (Zofia Wijaszka, Nerdspin)

A movie winning the big five Academy Awards – best picture along with honoring the lead actor and actress, writing and directing – happens so rarely that there’s not much use in examining the three movies that have pulled it off for common ground. But among It Happened One Night, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, and The Silence of the Lambs, it may be Cuckoo’s Nest, released 50 years ago, that feels like the unlikeliest across-the-board triumph. It Happened One Night and The Silence of the Lambs both belong to rarely awarded genres (romantic comedy and horror, respectively), which makes their big wins unusual but also clear cut: here is an example of the best this type of movie has to offer. Cuckoo’s Nest, meanwhile, is potentially much thornier. It’s a comedy-drama made at least in part as allegory – an anti-conformity story of fomenting 1960s social rebellion, disguised as a movie about lovable patients at a mental health facility.

Frodo and Sam are trekking to Mordor to destroy the One Ring of Power while Gimli, Legolas and Aragorn search for the orc-captured Merry and Pippin. All along, nefarious wizard Saruman awaits the Fellowship members at the Orthanc Tower in Isengard.

Ruthless silver miner, turned oil prospector, Daniel Plainview, moves to oil-rich California. Using his son to project a trustworthy, family-man image, Plainview cons local landowners into selling him their valuable properties for a pittance. However, local preacher Eli Sunday suspects Plainview’s motives and intentions, starting a slow-burning feud that threatens both their lives.
******************************
The great cinematic mythmaker of the San Fernando Valley, Paul Thomas Anderson, stages uniquely American tales of ambition, destiny, downfall, and redemption. His films might, at first glance, appear to deal with the mundane. And yet, there are always hints of the fantastic in his work—happenings and encounters so unlikely, and so seismic, that the only explanation could be a kind of cosmic fate. With his latest film creating a buzz in the wider film world, we thought to delve into PTA’s whimsical, slightly dark-humoured stories this February. A perfect month to spend in the comfort of a movie theatre!

Mike Nichols, 1996 · 117 minutes · OV-en subs
Film i Malmö membership required
Remakes don’t get much better than Mike Nichols’s The Birdcage, which embraced drag shows long before they became the height of cool, and more unsettlingly, another casualty of the rising tide of fascism. The movie’s entire pivot point is the marriage in everything but name between Armand (the much-missed Robin Williams) and Albert (Nathan Lane), the former of whom is the owner of the drag club where the latter is star performer Starina. Their relationship is tested when their son Val (Dan Futterman) announces his marriage to Barbara (Calista Flockhart, in one of her first roles), the daughter of a Republican politician, and Armand and Albert attempt to pass as respectable straights. The result is a satire so subversive that audiences willingly laughed at many of their most sacred cows, including marriage, politics, sexism, homophobia, and the traditional family itself. -Andrea Thompson, Chicago Reader

Film i Malmö membership required
Before there was Lady Bird, there was Mistress America. And despite the fact that Mistress America is not a solo project from Greta Gerwig, her artistic footprint is evident in every facet of this movie. Co-written with Noah Baumbach (and directed by Baumbach), Mistress America is about Tracy Fishko (Lola Kirke), an incoming college freshman at Barnard College in New York City. The usual freshman loneliness sets in quickly, and Tracy’s mother encourages her to call her soon-to-be-step-sister, Brooke Cardinas (Greta Gerwig).
Mistress America is quirky and meandering, but never in a bad way. It feels like those days that stretched on forever when you were young. When you had few expectations, all the time in the world, and unshakeable confidence. Mistress America is all of that lit up like a bottle rocket.
The visionary chroniclers of eccentric Americana Joel and Ethan Coen present one of their greatest creations in Llewyn Davis, a singer barely eking out a living on the peripheries of the flourishing Greenwich Village folk scene of the early sixties. As embodied by Oscar Isaac in a revelatory performance, Llewyn (loosely modeled on the Village folk legend Dave Van Ronk) is extraordinarily talented but also irascible, rude, and self-defeating. His circular odyssey through an unforgiving winter cityscape, evocatively captured by cinematographer Bruno Delbonnel, is realized with poignant humor and the occasional surreal touch. Featuring a folk soundtrack curated by T Bone Burnett, Inside Llewyn Davis reminds us that in the Coens’ world, history isn’t necessarily written by the winners.

Before the endless of True Crime documentaries on streaming platforms, there were In Cold Blood. Back then it was something completely fresh, an invention of a whole new template, with Truman Capote doing massive amounts of research and conducting interviews with the murderers, and turning his 8000 page notes into a 343 page turner, non-fiction written as a novel.
The 1967 film version, starring Scott Wilson and later real life murder suspect Robert Blake as the two killers out on the run after the brutal murder of a whole family, is equally as classic as the book. Shot in a realistic semi-documentary style while still with functioning as a Thriller, it still holds spine-chilling power.

Mulholland Drive, widely-regarded as one the best films of the 21st century, is one of the quintessential Hollywood-themed movies. Lynch moved from Philadeplphia to L.A. in 1970 to attend the American Film Institute and never left. His home for over 50 years, L.A. plays a leading role in many of Lynch's films. The film's namesake, Mulholland Drive is itself a famous road twisting through the Santa Monica hills, offering unparalleled views of Los Angeles, including the Hollywood sign. The history of Hollywood is nothing if not a universe of dreams-come-true and, even more-so, dreams that died. No other film, or filmmaker captures Hollywood as a dream, as well as Lynch does with Mulholland Drive.

Lord of the Rings works on at least a half-dozen different levels, from the casting to the score (by Howard Shore, with songs by Enya), and from the special effects and computer-generated imaging to Andrew Lesnie’s cinematography, which manages to both capture the inherent hugeness of the storyline while simultaneously focusing on the film’s individual characters." - Marc Savlov, The Austin Chronicle
DESPERATE LIVINGThu Jan 8, 2026
QUEER THURSDAYS
John Waters, 1977 · 90 minutes · OV-en subs
Film i Malmö membership required
The last movie of what John Waters labeled his Trash Trilogy, the infamous trio of shockingly grotesque and kitschy movies made before he went into the mainstream.
Following the murder of her husband, a neurotic suburban housewife and her maid agree to be exiled to Mortville, a shantytown of social outcasts ruled by a tyrannical queen regnant.
"If Female Trouble (1975) is John Waters‘ greatest narrative film, then Desperate Living (1977) is his inimitable descent into a surreal, kitsch abyss that few could imagine. Waters filmed his perverse anti-fairy tale on a meager budget three years after Female Troubles, although he had substantially more money here than on his previous films. Budget or no, Desperate Living is just as grandiose and epic as anything Busby Berkeley ever produced.
The midnight cult film scene was about to permanently change. Waters had one more film to go, the similar, but polished Polyester (1981); then, in 1984, Massey would join Lochary, followed by Divine in 1988. Desperate Living is really the last film in which everything came uniquely together for Waters in what was undoubtedly his era, when he was a powerful and influential visionary who literally took film goers to the edge of their seat (and often sent them running out the door)."

Writer-director Greta Gerwig’s cinematic reinvention of Mattel’s most (in)famous toy comes on like a sugar-rush mashup of Pixar’s Toy Story 2, Carlo Collodi’s Pinocchio, the cult live-action feature Josie and the Pussycats and the Roger Ebert-scripted exploitation romp Beyond the Valley of the Dolls. It’s a riotously entertaining candy-coloured feminist fable that manages simultaneously to celebrate, satirise and deconstruct its happy-plastic subject.

Hypnos Theatre is extremely proud to present the films of Béla Tarr & László Krasznahorkai – Winner of the 2025 Nobel Prize in Literature.
THE TURIN HORSE In 1889, German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche witnessed the whipping of a horse while traveling in Turin, Italy. He tossed his arms around the horse’s neck to protect it then collapsed to the ground. In less than one month, Nietzsche would be diagnosed with a serious mental illness that would make him bed-ridden and speechless for the next eleven years until his death. But what happened to the horse?
THE TURIN HORSE, the final collaboration of Béla Tarr, Ágnes Hranitzky and László Krasznahorkai, is a fictionalized account of the horse's life. The man who whipped the horse is a rural farmer who makes his living taking on carting jobs into the city with his horse-drawn cart. The horse is old, in very poor health, but does its best to obey its master’s commands. The farmer and his daughter must come to the understanding that it will be unable to go on sustaining their livelihoods.
A severe, ascetic story that depicts the decline of the 19th-century peasantry as its own apocalypse—attains a kind of majesty on a microscopic scale. (Mubi)

A lonely Manhattan insurance clerk tries to rise in his company by letting its executives use his apartment for their extramarital affairs, but office politics and his own romantic hopes complicate matters.
The Apartment is sharp social critique, romantic comedy and sad drama, with all parts fitting together to make it one of Billy Wilder's masterpieces, and a holiday classic.
"There is a melancholy gulf over the holidays between those who have someplace to go, and those who do not. “The Apartment” is so affecting partly because of that buried reason: It takes place on the shortest days of the year, when dusk falls swiftly and the streets are cold, when after the office party some people go home to their families and others go home to apartments where they haven’t even bothered to put up a tree. On Christmas Eve, more than any other night of the year, the lonely person feels robbed of something that was there in childhood and isn’t there anymore." Roger Ebert

Film i Malmö membership required
"The world of the heterosexual is a sick and boring life." Aunt Ida
"The action in John Waters’s defiantly crude, ultra-low-budget comedic-melodramatic extravaganza “Female Trouble,” from 1974, starts in 1960, when the Baltimore high-school student Dawn Davenport—played in drag by the glamorously raging Divine—is launched on a life of crime and adventure when she doesn’t get her coveted cha-cha heels from her parents for Christmas. The result is hitchhiking, robbery, pregnancy (Divine also plays the baby’s father), modelling, celebrity, and murder. Waters smashes the bowdlerizing codes of Hollywood morality with self-consciously delirious parodies of classic Hollywood genres and tropes; the resulting feast of sex, violence, cruelty, and frivolity mocks sentimental notions of family, work, and love, and turns the egomaniacal furies of pop culture inside out. Divine’s performance, augmented by physical transformations via extreme cosmetic effects, similarly dynamites and reconfigures mass-media conventions of beauty and the very art of acting—yet the movie’s theoretical import pales alongside its giddy, gory, grungy, ludicrously exalted delights."

WILD AT HEARTWed Dec 10, 2025
David Lynch, 1990 · 125 minutes · OV-en subs
Film i Malmö membership required
Roger Ebert wrote a scathing pan of “Wild At Heart” when it was released. He despised the opening scene, in which Sailor (Nicolas Cage) murders a Black killer hired by his girlfriend’s mother Marietta Fortune (Diane Ladd). The film, Ebert argues, tries to excuse its violence and cruelty as “parody;” it is “a film without the courage to declare its own darkest fantasies.”
Lynch’s attitude towards his material is always a little difficult to parse, and there are certainly elements of mockery in his depiction of lovers Sailor and Lula (Laura Dern.) But for me, at least for the most part, Lynch’s belief in them is as sincere as anything in his work; he loves the couple, and wants you to love them too. Yes, Sailor’s Elvis accent and snakeskin jacket (his "personal symbol of individuality") are silly, and Lula’s enthusiastic ode to his penis and how it talks to her while it’s inside is both saccharine and gross.
But love is silly, saccharine, gross and wonderful all at once, and Cage and Dern make it unequivocally clear that they care for each other, whether they’re stopping the car to kung-fu dance to speed metal or having hard conversations about past betrayal or trauma. They overcome mother’s (hyperbolic) opposition, their own (incredibly) poor choices, violence, and prison, and unless your heart is a big old lump of rock (or you’re Roger Ebert, I suppose), you’ve got to swoon at least a little when Sailor serenades her with “Love Me Tender” at the close. Stylized absurdist cold-hearted weirdo Lynch manages to succeed where romcoms often fail—he gives you a unique couple who both obviously care for each other, and who you can imagine being happy together.

Marielle Heller, 2018 · 106 minutes · OV-en subs
Film i Malmö membership required
In a dramatic turn, Melissa McCarthy portrays a broke, brilliant lesbian writer turned forger. It’s 1991 in New York City and Lee Israel (McCarthy) is a washed up biographer who has painted herself into a corner of obscurity. She’s gay, she’s mean, she’s lonely, and the only friend she has in the world is her cat.
Can You Ever Forgive Me? is based on the 2008 memoir by Israel and McCarthy is brilliant as the dowdy dyke/crazy cat lady with a criminal gift for mimicking wit; it’s shockingly refreshing to have such a marginal character embody a struggling woman’s perspective. [The film] is a coming out tale—not so much about sexuality as about authenticity: be yourself and tell the truth about yourself; don’t expect to live through or off other people. For someone with intimacy issues that’s easier said than done. The irony is, of course, that to find out who she really is Israel must lose her way completely, penning in excess of 400 fake missives impersonating other people, before she understands what she’s made of.
This film is a bittersweet delight and McCarthy shines in a role that should be thoroughly unappealing but isn’t. In fact, she delivers a kind of queer, feminist anti-hero that I have not seen before. Israel doesn’t care what anyone thinks of her and she’s not sorry for what she does. Plus, it’s a real pleasure to watch a film where iPhones, sex, and young, beautiful people are completely absent—and a middle-aged lesbian character sitting at an antique typewriter is the subject of a bravura performance.

DAMNATION, the first collaboration between the Hungarian filmmaker and writer, follows the character Karrer, a lonely barfly who sees his only chance for a better life in a woman – a married singer at the divebar, Titanik. Seizing on a chance for more time with the singer, Karrer lures her husband into a smuggling scheme that doesn’t work out as he had hoped.
“Tarr has not only found damnation for Karrer, who has now even lost his human dignity because he wants so much to be loved, but for society and the world. Gloom was never photographed so smartly, and it’s truly amazing that such a bleak tale that almost glorifies misery as a kind of self-fulfilling martyrdom should turn out to be such a captivating watch.” (Dennis Schwartz)

QUEER THURSDAYS & NOVEMBER: RIPLEY
Emerald Fennell, 2023 · 131 minutes · OV-en subs
Film i Malmö membership required
Last but not least: SALTBURN. Let's (re)watch it, finally!
Penned from 1955 all the way to 1991, the original Highsmith books — The Talented Mr. Ripley, Ripley Under Ground, Ripley’s Game, The Boy Who Followed Ripley, and Ripley Under Water — each depict Ripley as a calculating sociopath whose sophistication serves as his greatest alibi. Surely a man who seems so well-heeled wouldn’t strangle anybody! One of the most widely known literary characters, Ripley is often coded as gay through subtle references and allusions, but Highsmith never confirmed that’s how she saw the character, and even said in a late-in-life interview, “I don’t think Ripley is gay,” adding that while he “appreciates good looks in other men,” he may just not be “very strong in the sex department.” But authorial intention doesn’t matter as much as what’s on the page, which explains why some adaptations are quite queer and others aren’t.
***** NOVEMBER: RIPLEY *****
Who is the gayest version of Ripley ever put on screen? Given the (…) TV series, and all the Saltburn-adjacent interest in homoerotic class climbing in a dark academia setting, I have been immersing myself in the Ripley-verse to find out if we’ve been sleeping on any of the lesser known portrayals. None of these movies are officially connected to each other, and some of them present radically different versions of the character, but they all treat us to the simple pleasures of watching a handsome man do terrible things. You might think the bathtub scene in the ’99 version is about as queer as Ripley can get (and yes, Saltburn’s bathtub scene was almost certainly inspired by that one), but that’s not necessarily the case.

THE KILLINGWed Nov 26, 2025
Stanley Kubrick, 1956 · 83 minutes · OV-en subs
Film i Malmö membership required
This taut crime picture was one of the earliest films in the career of Stanley Kubrick, but something of the director’s voice and characteristic preoccupations are already evident here. A brisk film noir that unravels a tightly planned but doomed racetrack heist, it combines a clear-eyed, cool-headed approach with dialogue that crackles and a smart, non-linear structure.
It’s also superbly shot in brooding black and white — a pivotal scene at an airport, near the close of the film, is devastating in its melancholy beauty: the hopes and dreams of the characters eddy and swirl on the runway, tantalisingly out of reach.
Sterling Hayden stars as Johnny Clay, recently released from jail and hoping to score big on a job he has been plotting for a long time. He plans to rob the counting-office of a racetrack, using the shooting of a horse as cover. He has assembled a team to help him pull it off.
Yet one team member, a sad-sack window teller (Elisha Cook Jr), can’t help but spill the beans to his disgruntled wife, Sherry (Marie Windsor, wonderful in the treacherous femme fatale role). The rumour of riches corrupts as it trickles down to Sherry’s pretty-boy beau and the layers of deception lead to a mounting body count and a whole lot of mess.

A seedy hotel in Memphis, Tennessee, provides the backdrop for three separate tales, featuring everything from a kitsch-obsessed Japanese couple (Masatoshi Nagase, Yûki Kudô) to a trio of amateur robbers (Joe Strummer, Rick Aviles, Steve Buscemi) who discover the true nature of their relationship during a botched heist. Linking the stories together is the hotel's eccentric and creepy night clerk (Screamin' Jay Hawkins) as well as the spirit of Elvis Presley.
Mystery Train is one of Jarmusch’s very finest films, a boozy and beautiful pilgrimage to an iconic American ghost town and a paean to the music it gave the world.

NOVEMBER: RIPLEY
René Clément, 1960 · 118 minutes · OV-en subs · English subtitles
This French adaptation was made just five years after The Talented Mr. Ripley was published and proved to be a breakout hit for actor Alain Delon. It’s easy to see why: he’s absolutely dripping with charisma in the role. While the homoerotic subtext isn’t quite as pronounced as the 1999 film, glimmers of it still shine through in moments like the famous sailboat peeping scene. But what rockets Plein Soleil up the gayness charts is Tom Ripley’s overall aesthetic. This is certainly the twinkiest take on Ripley, which is not really an adjective I’d apply so readily to Matt Damon’s performance. And throughout much of this movie, Delon’s Ripley rocks a French tuck, the look that Queer Eye’s Tan France basically turned into a religion.
***** NOVEMBER: RIPLEY *****
Who is the gayest version of Ripley ever put on screen? Given the (...) TV series, and all the Saltburn-adjacent interest in homoerotic class climbing in a dark academia setting, I have been immersing myself in the Ripley-verse to find out if we’ve been sleeping on any of the lesser known portrayals. None of these movies are officially connected to each other, and some of them present radically different versions of the character, but they all treat us to the simple pleasures of watching a handsome man do terrible things. You might think the bathtub scene in the ’99 version is about as queer as Ripley can get (and yes, Saltburn’s bathtub scene was almost certainly inspired by that one), but that’s not necessarily the case.

Nålsögat för att gå från oetablerad till etablerad inom filmbranschen blir allt mindre. Vi befinner oss i ett läge där redan höga trösklar blir allt högre och där statliga kulturpengar blir allt mer begränsade.

"Forget it Jake, it's Chinatown."
Landmark neo-noir starring Jack Nicholson as a private investigator who gets drawn into a complex web of corruption, murder and and water right schemes in 1930s Los Angeles. With an Oscar winning screenplay by Robert Towne, placed third on Writers Guild of America's list of greatest screenplays ever.
"With Chinatown, I originally thought I'd do a detective movie. That was all, initially. But then, I didn't want to do just any detective movie. Once you say you want to do a detective movie, you start thinking about what crime is to you, what it really means, what you think is really a horrible crime and what angers you. So I thought, I don't want to do a crime movie about the kind of things that don't anger me. I wanted to do something that really infuriated me. The destruction of the land and that community was something that I thought was really hideous. It was doubly significant because it was the way Los Angeles was formed, really." Robert Towne

The 1999 film may have more direct moments of Ripley lusting after men, but nothing tops the sheer flamboyance of John Malkovich’s portrayal of the character in middle age. A beret-wearing art forger who has settled down in Italy with his beard wife Luisa (Chiara Caselli), Malkovich’s Ripley is almost always filmed wearing a cravat, even while riding a bicycle around his meticulously decorated villa. Based on the third Highsmith novel in the series, this film has perhaps the gayest premise of all time: an acquaintance slights Ripley at a party and so Ripley decides to destroy his entire life, in this case by pressuring him into a murder-for-hire scheme. But when he’s not garroting mobsters in a train car, this Ripley can’t help but ooze homosexual. He’s shown sewing in a robe while perched on red silk sheets and baking a soufflé that prompts Luisa to label him “the perfect housewife.” But this Ripley’s most iconic and Exclusively Gay Moment™ comes when someone asks him “Who are you?” to which he quickly responds “I’m a creation.” If that’s not a Drag Race entrance line, I don’t know what is.

Paul Thomas Anderson’s Altmanesque portrait of a day in the crisscrossing lives of various San Fernando Valley residents—including a sleazy pickup artist (Tom Cruise); a distraught, pill-popping, soon-to-be widow (Julianne Moore); a has-been former quiz-kid phenom turned sad sack (William H. Macy); a lovelorn cop (John C. Reilly); and a troubled, coke-addicted young woman (Melora Walters)—is a gloriously sprawling, dizzyingly ambitious roulette wheel of chance encounters, freak occurrences, and emotional extremes.
Virtuoso tracking shots, the music of Aimee Mann, and a climax of biblical proportions come together in a mosaic of human pain and catharsis that confirmed Anderson as one of contemporary American cinema’s most audacious auteurs.

THE TALENTED MR. RIPLEYThu Nov 6, 2025
QUEER THURSDAYS & NOVEMBER: RIPLEY
Anthony Minghella, 1999 · 139 minutes · OV-en subs
Film i Malmö
Whether you loved Saltburn or loathed it, you have to admit that it is essentially Talented Mr. Ripley fan fiction. (Maybe you think it’s very good fan fiction, but it doesn’t forge much new ground.) And there can really be no substitute for the homoeroticism of every charged interaction between Ripley (Matt Damon) and Dickie Greenleaf (Jude Law) in this remarkably nuanced psychological thriller that inspired countless imitators. Anthony Minghella’s adaptation makes the grifter’s gayness all but text, showing Ripley asking to join Dickie in the bathtub, and even including a male lover in its third act, though the relationship is never outright specified. At his core, this incarnation of Ripley wants to be gay in Italy, own expensive art, and play the piano — and if he has to crack a few skulls to live that life, so be it. Who among us wouldn’t murder someone for a gorgeously appointed Rome apartment?

Provocative screenwriter Paul Schrader's (Taxi Driver, Raging Bull...) first script. Written with his brother Leonard, who in the 70s lived in Japan, and actually hung out in Yakuza circles. Before this, the Japanese crime syndicates had only been seen in the homespun Japanese gangster movies so popular there during the 60s and 70s, but with this neo noir the Schrader brothers made the first international movie about the mysterious rituals and codes of the Japanese netherworld.
Robert Mitchum stars as an American private-eye going to Japan, a land he was once stationed in as a soldier, when an old friend asks for help in rescuing his kindnapped daughter from the clutches of the Yakuza.

With this debut feature, Sofia Coppola announced her singular vision, exploring the aesthetics of femininity while illuminating the interior lives of young women.
An adaptation of Jeffrey Eugenides’s highly acclaimed first novel, The Virgin Suicides conjures the ineffable melancholy of teenage longing and ennui in its story of the suicides of the five Lisbon sisters, stifled by the rules of their overprotective religious parents—as told through the collective memory of a group of men who were boys at the time and still yearn to understand what happened.
Evoking its 1970s suburban setting through ethereal cinematography by Ed Lachman and an atmospheric score by Air, and featuring a magnetic performance by Kirsten Dunst, the film secured a place for its director in the landscape of American independent cinema and has become a coming-of-age touchstone.

Stanley Kubrick’s painfully funny take on Cold War anxiety is one of the fiercest satires of human folly ever to come out of Hollywood. The matchless shape-shifter Peter Sellers plays three wildly different roles: Royal Air Force Captain Lionel Mandrake, timidly trying to stop a nuclear attack on the USSR ordered by an unbalanced general (Sterling Hayden); the ineffectual and perpetually dumbfounded U.S. President Merkin Muffley, who must deliver the very bad news to the Soviet premier; and the titular Strangelove himself, a wheelchair-bound presidential adviser with a Nazi past. Finding improbable hilarity in nearly every unimaginable scenario, Dr. Strangelove, or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb is a subversive masterpiece that officially announced Kubrick as an unparalleled stylist and pitch-black ironist.

Two parallel stories, one with Judah (Martin Landau) as a renowned eye doctor driven to extreme measures to preserve his stable family life from hounding threats to expose him and blackmail him by his neurotic mistress. While the other parallel story line is classic Woody Allen, who plays Cliff, a documentary filmmaker, down on his luck, who is given a job as a favor by his brother-in-law. This hapless and hilarious experience is cleverly inter-cut with the Landau story to great effect. This film is both frighteningly believable and thought-provoking while delving into deep questions regarding morality and murder. This film is most definitely a must-see!

To that end, Murnau has employed a real vampire, Max Schreck (Willem Dafoe), explaining to the crew that he is the ultimate of that new breed, the "method actor" -- trained by Stanislavsky himself. Schreck will appear only in character and only at night.

It is late in the reign of Queen Anne (Colman). She has lost seventeen children (all of whom she has replaced with a caged rabbit) and remains without an heir. Her favourite, Lady Sarah of Marlborough (Weisz), is essentially in control of the country, acting on her behalf in affairs of state as the Queen languishes in a permanent state of grief and misery. Abigail (Stone) is ex-aristocracy whose family has fallen from grace. When she arrives at court to ask for a job from her cousin Lady Sarah, she witnesses a sexual encounter between the Queen and her favourite and begins to hatch for her own social ascendency. Beginning to flatter and flirt with the Queen, she attempts to usurp and replace her cousin, all the while allying herself with powerful political allies (Hoult) and finding a titled young man (Alwyn) to marry and cement her status.

The battle between Abigail and Lady Sarah is bitter and vicious, while the Queen’s simplistic view of the world shrouds her from seeing the truth of the dire situation in her court. Lady Marlborough is a realist and while she has absolutely capitalised on her favour, what she does is arguably in the country’s interest. She flatters the Queen to keep level the balance of power. Abigail is a completely different matter, however. Her meteoric rise is entirely self-serving, designed only to give her wealth, power and status. Beside a hedonistic life, Abigail wants very little more, but is willing to fight dirty to get it. And the feud gets really dirty, really quickly.
The cinematography is outstanding in capturing the gaudy opulence of the palace and court. Camera pans move at 180 degrees, showing us beautifully composed location shots, where no expense has been spared in recreating the luxury of the age. Restoration comedy is known for the way it ridicules the upper class’ pretentions of grandeur and The Favourite does exactly that, highlighting the preposterous elements of life at court, from game shooting to outlandish dance routines. There are moments when you feel like you’re watching a spoof, but Lanthimos manages to keep the film’s tone perfectly on the right side of bizarre, making it also pass legitimately as a historical drama. Of course this is a parody, but it’s not hard to imagine that it’s not that far away from the truth. It’s rare to see a film so flawlessly composed and pitched perfectly right. I defy anyone to find fault with this exquisite movie.

NOSFERATUWed Oct 1, 2025
A Symphony of Horror
Robert Eggers, 2024 · 132 minutes · English
Film i Malmö
Robert Eggers' NOSFERATU is a gothic tale of obsession between a haunted young woman and the terrifying vampire infatuated with her, causing untold horror in its wake.
****************************************************** A Symphony of Horror
Since it premiered in Berlin in March 1922, Murnau’s NOSFERATU – A SYMPHONY OF HORROR remains the most influential vampire film of all time. It may as well be the most iconic horror film ever made, one that continues to capture the imagination to this day. No wonder, it has fascinated countless filmmakers (Herzog, Coppola, Eggers, etc ) who have all offered their own intepretation of the familiar story.
This October we will trace the steps of the most renowned bloodsucker throughout his 100-year existence in film history.
The first Dogme 95 film made outside of Europe, Harmony Korine’s follow-up to his divisive GUMMO finds him and cinematographer Anthony Dod Mantle (who shot the original Dogme film, Thomas Vinterberg’s THE CELEBRATION) employing the aesthetics of digital video to visionary, expressionistic effect. Deeply compassionate beneath its shocking surface, JULIEN DONKEY-BOY centers on a schizophrenic young man (Ewen Bremner) whose life with his dysfunctional family—including an abusive father (Werner Herzog) and a protective, pregnant sister (Chloë Sevigny)—is evoked through a kaleidoscope of impressionistic fragments at once unsettling and strangely, transcendently beautiful.
**********************************
30 years later, Remembering DOGME 95
In March 1995, at a Parisian conference celebrating 100 years of film, Danish director Lars von Trier handed out red pamphlets that would formally announce DOGME 95. Together with Thomas Vinterberg, Trier had created a manifesto that compiled a “Vow of Chastity” - a strict set of rules that would determine whether or not film could be considered part of the movement. DOGME 95 was a backlash against the commercial studio filmmaking of the time, with its over-reliance on technology and digital tools. Over time, many filmmakers around the world joined the movement, creating together a rich body of work. However, not all films would strictly abide by every rule, so filmmakers would be required to “confess” the ways in which they have failed to comply with their vows.
This September, at Film i Malmö, we will revisit some of the most renowned films produced by the DOGME collective, and will celebrate their audacity, non-conformism, and determination to keep independent cinema alive!
BLADE RUNNER 2049Mon Sep 29, 2025
Denis Villeneuve, 2017 · 163 minutes · English

Officer K (Ryan Gosling), a new blade runner for the Los Angeles Police Department, unearths a long-buried secret that has the potential to plunge what's left of society into chaos. His discovery leads him on a quest to find Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford), a former blade runner who's been missing for 30 years.
SUDDENLY, LAST SUMMERThu Sep 25, 2025
QUEER THURSDAYS
Joseph L. Mankiewicz, 1959 · 114 minutes · English
Film i Malmö
The wealthy Violet Venable (Katherine Hepburn) attempts to bribe a young surgeon (Montgomery Clift) into performing a controversial procedure on a young girl (Elizabeth Taylor) in order to prevent her from “defiling” the name of her deceased son who, though she denies it, had certain “unsavory appetites”.
A gem of Classic Hollywood and coded queer cinema, SUDDENLY, LAST SUMMER uses the wit of its source material (Tennesee Williams) and screenplay (Gore Vidal) to touch on subjects more or less forbidden in Hollywood at the time. A melodramatic script, bombastic performances from Taylor and Hepburn (Hepburn is practically a drag queen) and shocking subject matter, this film is a true delight for fans of classic film.
RUMOURSWed Sep 24, 2025
Guy Maddin, Even and Galen Johnson, 2024 · 104 minues · English
Film i Malmö
The leaders of seven wealthy democracies get lost in the woods while drafting a statement on a global crisis, facing danger as they attempt to find their way out.
Written and directed by three beloved cult Canadian experimentalists and starring Cate Blanchett, Alicia Vikander among others this film is in a style all its own, thoroughly comedic, "bizarre, brilliant and hilariously pin-sharp" (Telegraph)
The massed foibles and outright idiocies of the seven principals — all sharp individual comic creations, but collectively a devastating hot-air hydra of enfeebled contemporary democracy — add up to a frustrated protest against our elected elite fiddling while Rome (or the planet, rather) burns, offering mealy-mouthed sentiments that gesture toward coordinated action without ever getting there.

CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KINDThu Sep 18, 2025
Steven Spielberg, 1977 · 138 minutes · English
Film i Malmö
An Indiana electric lineman finds his quiet and ordinary daily life turned upside down after a close encounter with a UFO, spurring him to an obsessed cross-country quest for answers as a momentous event approaches.
"Inevitably, two questions will be asked of the new movie Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Is it as good as Star Wars, and did 29-year-old director Steven Spielberg equal his feat with Jaws with this film on UFOs? The answer to both is yes." Jerry Buck, Associated Press
"This film has retained some of the wonder and bafflement we feel when we first go into a planetarium: we ooh and aah at the vastness, and at the beauty of the mystery." Pauline Kael, The New Yorker
THE KING IS ALIVETue Sep 16, 2025

Directed by one of the original formers of the Dogme 95 and considered the fourth such film to follow the manifesto. A group of travellers attempt to keep spirits afloat after their bus breaks down in the middle of the north African desert. They choose to put on a recreation of Shakespeare’s King Lear as tensions begin to build.

Hypnos Theatre
We Love David Lynch at Hypnos! And yet there is one work we have never screened, until now...
THE STRAIGHT STORY has been called poignant and profound and been described as "I can't believe David Lynch made this film" - so if you're somehow put off by his other work, here is a Lynch film for you. And for the completists, it's one that has to be seen.
When Alvin Straight, a stubborn, physically-ailing 73yr old, learns that his brother whom he hasn't met in 10 years has had a stroke, he becomes determined to make peace. Due to poor eyesight and bad legs, Alvin doesn't have a drivers license, so he packs up and heads off from Iowa to Wisconsin on his old riding lawn mower.
Sundays this fall, Hypnos will be screening films that let us slow down and settle in. Quiet dramas of changing lives and cinematic poetry. It should be said that entrance to this film is not included in Film i Malmö memberships. The rights have been attained through Njuta Films. Entrance is 100sek and is to be paid at the door. Doors open at 17:30. We will put on a pot of damn good coffee.

A family secret comes to light amidst the celebration of the patriarch’s birthday. Christian, the eldest son is the master of ceremonies for the big family reunion but has other plans than simply honoring his father. Raw, direct and unapologetic, this film was the first to come from the Dogme 95 manifesto and still one of the most powerful.

TIM PERKIS & NOISEY PEOPLESat Mar 16, 2019
Tim Perkis, 2007 · English
TIM PERKIS (Live) is most widely recognized as a pioneering member of live computer network bands like The League of Automatic Composers (1978-1983) - "the first musicians to incorporate the newly available microcomputers, […] they approached the computer network as one large, interactive musical instrument made up of independently programmed automatic music machines, producing a music that was noisy, difficult, often unpredictable, and occasionally beautiful."
Since then Perkis has released dozens of recordings and performed his electronic improvised instruments with hundreds of artists in N. America, Europe and Japan, filling out his CV with diverse related research and engineering work.
In Perkis´s own words: "I like to consider human-machine interaction as a new form of social interaction. What's interesting to me about computers is their ability to serve as a framework for embodying systems offering complexity and surprise. Unpredictability is what makes social life so interesting, it is what makes art so interesting, and it's what can make computers, as partners in art making, interesting. I don't use computers to simply carry out ideas I may have: I'd rather work in situations that force me to respond to surprises that are dealt to me by systems whose complexity and unpredictability are so high that their behavior can not be known in advance. All of my computer based art work has been concerned with creating social (or synthetic social) situations, which have enough complexity to behave like real life: in fact, to be real life of some new kind. The system in question in almost all of these pieces consists of human beings and machines in cycles of mutual influence and response."
NOISY PEOPLE (2007) is a feature length video documentary that opens a window into a tightly-knit group of unusual sound artists and musicians from the San Francisco improvisational music community. An active player in the Bay Area experimental music scene myself, Perkis followed his subjects for a year, filming them in their homes and studios, rehearsals and performances. What emerges is a set of funny and lively portraits of some very creative and quirky people -- and a portrait of a way of life outside the commercial musical mainstream of America.
Filmen skildrar arbetarklassens situation i Sverige 1936. I centrum står en familj, där sonen vill bli författare, där fadern är en alkoholiserad livslögnare och drömmare och modern sliter för att de ska kunna överleva.
Kl. 17 Barnvagnen:
Den unga fabriksarbeterskan Britt blir gravid med den popsjungande Robban, utan att vara tillsammans med honom. Hon bestämmer sig för att behålla barnet och försöka få det att fungera med Robban. Dock går det inte och Britt börjar istället umgås med den borgerlige och intellektuelle Björn...
Utmärkt, svensk nya-franska-vågen-film! Denna fina debutfilm av Bo Widerberg känns som en pendang till Godards nyskapande "À bout de souffle", inte till handling, men till sätt att göra film. Med Jan Troells fantastiska foto.
???The American Friend ??? what IMDB says "Tom Ripley, who deals in forged art, suggests a picture framer he knows would make a good hit man." MEH. MEN ---> :::::::::::::::::::::::what Todd Gaines says - - > Wim Wenders knows how to direct the livin' fuck out of a flick. His fucktastic brilliance is beyond words. The combo of Wenders and cinematographer, Robby Müller, is motherfuck fuckerific! Wow! The American Friend might be the best looking picture I've ever seen. The color red is on fire. The camera knows just where to go. Wenders goes all sneaky snake and has directors such as Samuel Fuller and Nicholas Ray, act as baddies. There's non-stop tension at the subway, and on a train. There's a nice hint of neo-noir, with a bombastic musical score. I love the combo of German and English. Everyone speaks the language they're supposed to. The ending is satisfying, and I'm so glad I found this flick. < - -
