The year is 1969. In the magnificent landscapes of Al Ula, Saudi Arabia, a tiny mosquito named Zozo has big dreams that set her apart from her buzzing companions. While her fellow mosquitoes are content with their usual routines, Zozo yearns for something more: she dreams of becoming a singer. And not just any singer! She wants to be as famous as Um Kulthum.

ROQIA
Director: Yanis Koussim
In 1993, a tragic car crash leaves Ahmed with amnesia. He returns to his home village where nothing seems familiar — even his family feel like strangers. His bandaged face terrifies his youngest child, while nocturnal visitors whispering litanies in an unknown language haunt him. Who are they? Why is Ahmed missing the index finger on his right hand? Why does his neighbor make him feel uncomfortable? In the present day, an aging Raqi (a Muslim exorcist) suffering from Alzheimer’s disease also has a missing index finger on his right hand that trembles ominously. With a surge of unexplained violence and the possessed speaking an unknown language, his devoted disciple fears an ancient evil will be unleashed.
ERUPCJA
Director: Pete Ohs
Pack your bags for a weekend in Warsaw, Poland in the company of an ensemble cast of characters who criss-cross, connect and re-connect at pivotal junctures. Bethany (Charli XCX) is on a romantic getaway with Rob (Will Madden), who plans to propose, but she hasn’t been entirely honest about her past, or her friendship with Nel (Lena Góra) a florist. Every time they meet there’s a seismic event, an Erupcja (eruption) which leads them down different paths. With Jeremy O. Harris on hand for advice, Pete Ohs’ film resonates, capturing a mood that feels fresh and filled with possibilities. The film is reminiscent of the New Wave and the Before series, but, like Bethany, Eurpcja is its own force.
THE FURIOUS
Director: Kenji Tanigaki
A martial arts epic from action choreographer-turned-director Tanigaki Kenji, The Furious unites a cast of pan-Asian stars — including Xie Miao (The New Legend Of Shaolin), Joe Taslim (The Raid: Redemption), Jeeja Yanin and Yayan Ruhian — in a brutal yet emotional fight for justice. Set in an unnamed Southeast Asian country, it follows a father and a journalist as they take on a human trafficking syndicate in search of their missing loved ones. Produced by Bill Kong (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon), with fight sequences choreographed for raw authenticity, the film pays homage to the golden age of Asian action cinema while pushing the genre forward. Gritty and powerful, The Furious is a masterpiece in its genre and a must-watch for martial arts fans.
