"The programme of Ji.hlava shows the extraordinary power of documentary film. Documentary filmmakers replace the literalness of reality with playfulness and originality of thought. They show us the world as we could hardly see it ourselves – unless, like them, we would like to spend long years with a camera in those places," says Marek Hovorka, the festival's director. "Dialogue has been important to Ji.hlava since its beginning, so of course the screenings will be followed by talks. I am delighted that the audience will be able to meet many filmmakers in person, including Kirsten Johnson, Tsai Ming-liang, Roberto Minervini, Andrei Ujică and Albert Serra."
Trailer of the 28th Ji.hlava directed by Kirsten Johnson
Each year, Ji.hlava invites one director to honour the festival with a festival trailer. After Jean-Luc Godard, Godfrey Reggio, Artavazd Peleshyan, this year's Ji.hlava spot was directed by American documentary filmmaker and cinematographer Kirsten Johnson. "Kirsten Johnson's trailer plays with Kafkaesque transformation on the border of life and death, dream and fantasy. She moves the scene from the family archive to an imaginative world, allowing for a different reading each time. The minute-long film becomes a poem that gets stuck in our heads like a memory of our ow
Latin & Spanish Film Roadshow
Posted By Robin Menken
Outsider Pictures presents Award-winning Latin & Spanish Film Roadshow, a unique showcase of award-winning Latin and Spanish films that can be viewed either individually or as a 1-week long mini-festival of sorts – of five award-wining films screened at Cannes, San Sebastian, Berlin, Karlovy Vary with 50+ International festival awards between them.
The films will screen individually in rotation each day of the week, and can be seen separately or by purchasing a $40 pass to attend all films.
Immerse yourself in the beauty of Latin cinema and a week-long celebration of captivating stories and unforgettable experiences!
This unique collection opens exclusively at the Cinema Village in New York on July 19, and the Laemmle Royal in Los Angeles on July 26, with more cities to follow.
“Creatura”-Catalan filmmaker Elena Martín Gimeno’s unsettling film “Criatura” uncovers the roots of a woman’s troubled and troubling sexuality.
This is the second time Gimeno wrote starred and directed herself in a feature film (“Julia Is” 2017).
Gimeno and screenwriter, Clara Roquet based their raw, honest screenplay on countless interviews with woman discussing their sexuality. The main reveal is owning woman’s desire, an impulse which makes men, and still to some degree, woman very ‘uncomfortable.’
Their brave film, which won Best European Film at the 2023 Cannes Directors’ Fortnight, succeeds because director and lead actress Elena Martín Gimeno is willing to become transparent.
Focussing on specifics of one woman’s life, she opens up the still very necessary dialogue about the inconvenient truth of women’s sexual desire. Men are afraid of women’s desires.
We’re habituated to watching sex onscreen, frequently abusive or misogynistic sex. This is something new.
Present day Mila (Elena Martín Gimeno) and her obliging boyfriend Marcel (Oriol Pla) move into a house on the rugged Costa Brava to be closer to his new teaching job..
Her grandmother has recently died. Promising to visit soon Mila’s parents Gerard (Alex Brendemühl), and Diana (Clara Segura) move out leaving the summer house to the younger couple.
It's the site of all her childhood summer vacations.
As Mila grapples with her difficulty having sex with Marcel, the home launches a series of memories.
One night horny Mila initiates sex, luring Marcel away from his book. Marcel gets into it, but Mila stops him to stare fixedly into his eyes. Again and again. He gives up. What does she want?
The next morning she's covered with hives.
Since childhood she's suffered this hive reaction.
Her only relief is her mother bathing her in healing sea
water.
It's apparently business as usual, a frustrating cycle of seduction and rejection. Mila desires, her body rebels.
Marcel withdraws from the psychological whiplash.
Marcel leaves. He's gone all night, supposedly hanging with his boys in Barcelona.

Deciding to share your story with the world for the first time isn’t something that’s easy to get used to, especially if you’re unveiling it at the Sundance Film Festival. For Josh Margolin, it’s been six months since his debut feature, Thelma, premiered to a packed audience at The Ray Theatre during the 2024 Fest, but it’s still a bit hard to believe.
“It was very surreal, very overwhelming,” Margolin says with a smile. He’s currently in a soundstage for a full day talking all things Thelma alongside his cast. The breakout comedy about a tenacious grandmother (an iconic performance by June Squibb) getting justice from phone scammers is in theaters across the country now, but the first screening in Park City is burned in the writer-director-editor’s brain. Margolin, whom we first got to know before the Festival, now realizes that his premiere demeanor might not have appeared as slick or effortless as he thought it did.
“I thought I was really cool and holding it together,” he recalls. “I was like, ‘This is great. We’re going to show the movie. We’ve shown the movie before!’ And then 10 minutes before the movie ended at our premiere, I suddenly was like, ‘Oh my God, I think I’m going to pass out.’ My girlfriend, Chloe, was like, ‘You’ve been breathing like a crazy person.’ I say, ‘I don’t think so.’ And she was like, ‘Trust me, I’m sitting next to you. You sound insane. Take a breath.’ Somehow everything really hit me in the moments leading up to, honestly, having to talk about it.”

Following that sage advice again half a year later, Margolin pauses to collect his thoughts about the whirlwind that is debuting at the Festival: “Something about owning it in that way at Sundance — at our premiere — it was something I’d dreamed of doing, and then to be there, I felt like I had held it together for as long as I could… It sort of all hit me and overwhelmed me for a moment, and then I took a few breaths and walked up, and we went from there.”
When Margolin says “we,” he means his full Thelma family who made that dream a reality. This, of course, includes his stellar cast who brought the semi-autobiographical story to life. The chemistry between the actors — Squibb, Fred Hechinger, Parker Posey, Clark Gregg, and the late Richard Roundtree — is infectious to watch on screen and, frankly, to be around.
Off-screen, the Thelma gang looks out for their own, too, whether it’s sharing lines while running through promos in a Hollywood studio or giving each other character advice on set. When it came to navigating the Sundance Film Festival, Margolin’s fictionalized family had a leg up with two Sundance Institute regulars playing mom (Posey) and dad (Gregg).

ATLANTA, GA (May 17, 2024) — The 48th annual Atlanta Film Festival + Creative Conference (ATLFF) is proud to announce the award winners for the 2024 festival, which took place from Thursday, April 25 - Sunday, May 5, 2024.
Today’s announcement recognizes filmmakers in 15 categories for their achievements and cinematic excellence. Winners of the Narrative Short, Animated Short and Documentary Short Jury Awards not only proudly took home their awards, but now also qualify for the 2024 Academy Awards®. Now in its fifth decade, ATLFF is one of only a handful of film festivals worldwide that is Academy Award-qualifying in all three categories (live-action short, animation short, and documentary short subject).
Most award winners were chosen by distinguished jurors from all backgrounds across the film industry. The Audience Awards were determined by in-person attendees.
This year, Michael Showalter, director of “The Idea of You” was presented with the Rebel Award. The Rebel Award honors someone who has shunned the typical industry expectations and paved their own path, in defiance of both norms and naysayers. This award is inspired by Atlantans who haven’t been afraid to break the mold, speak out and create change.
Additionally, Bill Duke, Director of “DEEP COVER” was honored with the Ossie Davis Award for Innovation in Filmmaking. Named in honor of one of Georgia’s most beloved and distinctive film talents, this award recognizes creative excellence and dynamic contributions to the art of cinema while also promoting human dignity and social justice.
With 118 countries represented in the selections, more than 24% of films had ties to Georgia filmmakers. The 142 total creative works from submissions featured diverse filmmakers who continue to uplift voices and stories from around the world. Of the selections, 49% are directed by filmmakers who identify as female or non-binary, and 59% are Black, Indigenous, or People of Color (BIPOC). Eleven Marquee screenings combined Hollywood star power with the best of independent film.
Continuing with a hybrid model of in-person screenings and digital screenings, the 2024 event drew in over 20,000 total attendees. Over 16,000 people attended 153 screenings, panels, and events held primarily at The Plaza Theatre and Tara Theatre with select events at the Atlanta Contemporary Art Center, Fox Theatre and Fulton County Airport in addition to a variety of restaurants and bars across the city, during the 11-day festival. An additional nearly 4,000 people streamed screenings from ATLFF’s virtual catalog of 142 films and 13 virtual Creative Conference workshops, panels, or Masterclasses.
With over a dozen of the in-person screenings selling out, the virtual presentation of the film catalog also proved to be a success. More than three months’ worth of content was streamed during the festival, with viewers in 32 U.S. states, and 10 countries across four inhabited continents.
A full list of jury members with brief biographies is included below, as well as film information for all award winners and honorable mentions.
The 48th annual Atlanta Film Festival + Creative Conference took place from April 25 - May 5, 2024. ATLFF is currently accepting submissions for the 49th annual festival, which is confirmed to take place April 24 - May 4, 2025.
