Free Fire
Friday 31 March – Thursday 13 April
Ben Wheatley returns with all guns blazing in a blackly comic shoot-em-up that would make
John Carpenter proud. The setting is Boston in 1978 and a deserted warehouse where
Provisional IRA members Frank (Michael Smiley) and Chris (Cillian Murphy) arrive to buy enough
assault rifles and ammunition to start a small war. Justine (Brie Larson) has brokered the deal but
everybody seems to want a piece of the action. As trigger fingers twitch, egos clash and
tempers fray, all hell is about to break loose. Run for cover and savour a brilliant, bruising thrill
ride. GFF17. Watch our Q&A with director Ben Wheatley and Jack Reynor at glasgowfilm.org
The screening on Monday 3 April (18.30) will be introduced by Alistair Harkness as part of
the Contemporary Cinema Course.
Director Ben Wheatley Cast Brie Larson, Armie Hammer, Cillian Murphy, Sharlto Copley, Jack Reynor, UK 2016, 1h30m, 15
The Age of Shadows
Miljeong
Friday 31 March – Thursday 6 April
Kim Jee-woon’s nail biting, cloak and dagger
thriller is set at the close of the 1920s, during
the Japanese occupation of Korea. Police
captain Lee Jung-chool (Song Kang-ho) is
under pressure to expose members of the
Korean resistance. He concentrates on Kim
Woo-jin (Gong Yoo) who is secretly plotting to
smuggle explosives from Shanghai into Seoul.
As Lee’s sympathies edge towards the
resistance, the hunter becomes the hunted in a
tale of shifting loyalties, betrayal and
vengeance. GFF17

The Lost City of Z
Friday 31 March – Thursday 6 April
Based on the true story of British explorer Percy
Fawcett and his quixotic quest into uncharted
realms of the South American jungle, searching
for a presumed ancient civilization. Refreshingly
classical in its approach, director James Gray
refrains from adding superfluous escapades and
instead honours the Fawcett family’s real story
of physical risk, intellectual curiosity and
individual daring. Exquisitely shot on film and
superbly acted by a cast including Charlie
Hunnam, Robert Pattinson, Sienna Miller and
BAFTA Rising Star Tom Holland.

Neruda
Friday 7 – Thursday 13 April
Described by prolific director Pablo Larraín ( The Club, Jackie) as “more of a ‘Nerudian’ film than
it is a film about Neruda”; this latest provocative work weaves an exuberantly irreverent fantasy
around events in the life of the poet and politician. In the early days of the Cold War, as Chile
aligned itself with America, Neruda’s communist convictions saw him branded an enemy of the
state and he was obliged to go into hiding. Gormless police inspector Oscar Peluchonneau
(Gael Garcia Bernal) is soon on the case in a playful, fantastic-looking film that is as
entertainingly constructed as it is surprisingly illuminating. GFF17
Director Pablo Larraín Cast Gael Garcia Bernal, Luis Gnecco, Mercedes Moran, Chile/Argentina/France/Spain/USA 2016,
1h48m, subtitles, 15
It’s Only the End of the
World Juste la fin du monde
Who’s Gonna Love
Me Now?
Sat 1 (14.30) & Sun 2 Apr (19.15)
Assured young auteur Xavier Dolan returns
with his sixth feature, an adaptation of
Jean-Luc Lagarce’s play: a claustrophobic
family drama about an award-winning
dramatist who returns to his hometown after
more than a decade away. Revealing to his
family that he is dying, Louis (Gaspard Ulliel)
ignites a pressure cooker of familial
melodrama with each member of the
household adding to the histrionics in their
own way. Dolan filters the drama through
Louis’ own woozy outlook and an ensemble
cast that includes Marion Cotillard, Vincent
Cassell and Léa Seydoux.
Sunday 2 April (15.45)
At the age of 21, Saar Maoz arrived in London
after being kicked out of his kibbutz for not
being ‘religious’. When the highs of his new
found freedom come crashing down around
him, Saar seeks solace in the arms of the
London Gay Men’s Chorus. Winner of the
Audience Award for Best Documentary at the
2016 Berlin Film Festival, Who’s Gonna Love
Me Now? celebrates the triumph of love over
hate, and of understanding over ignorance.

I Am Not Your Negro
Friday 7 – Thursday 13 April
Fifty years after the Civil Rights movement, race remains a defining issue in America. James
Baldwin’s final book Remember This House was due to address the lives and assassinations of
his friends Medgar Evers, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr. The unfinished manuscript has
been entrusted to director Raoul Peck who uses Baldwin’s powerful words, narrated by Samuel
L Jackson, along with a wealth of archive footage to reflect on the legacy of these men and
contrast with the present day killings of young African-Americans. The result is a vital, awardwinning exploration of what it means to be black in America. GFF17
Specially commissioned programme notes will be available.

The Nights of ZayendehRood Shabhaye Zayendeh-Rood
Friday 7 – Thursday 13 April
A Cannes Critics’ Week prizewinner, Julia
Ducournau’s debut feature is a surreal and
deliriously twisted coming-of-age story.
Attending her first year at veterinarian
college, shy vegetarian Justine is forced into
eating raw liver as part of a vicious hazing
process by older students. However, she soon
develops an unhealthy taste for meat that
drives her to commit acts of increasing
savagery, as unquenched sexual urges turn
into an appetite for human flesh. Bold, daring,
provocative and shocking. GFF17
Preceded by DepicT! Award-winning film
Impacts (1m44s) by director Petra Balekic.
Friday 14 – Sunday 16 April
This early feature from Iranian auteur Mohsen
Makhmalbaf recounts the story of an
anthropology lecturer and his daughter
through three distinct periods; the last years
of the Shah, the revolution and its painful
aftermath. Due to its bold critique of Iranian
society, the film was long thought destroyed
by Iranian censors, and only in 2016 the
surviving elements of the film were screened
for the second time ever at Venice Film
Festival. A rich and rewarding look at family,
lost love and the legacy of violence that has
shaped contemporary Iranian society.

The Handmaiden
Director’s Cut Preview: Sun 2 Apr, Standard Release: Fri 14 – Thu 27 Apr
Inspired by Sarah Waters’ best-selling novel ‘Fingersmith’, the latest film from visionary director
Park Chan-wook (Oldboy, Thirst, Stoker) is a ravishing, epic and sensual rollercoaster ride. 1930s
Korea, in the period of Japanese occupation: a new girl, Sookee is hired as a handmaiden to a
Japanese heiress, Hideko who lives a secluded life on a large countryside estate with her
domineering Uncle Kouzuki. But the maid has a secret. Nothing is what it seems in this twisting,
thrilling and intricate drama.
The one-off preview of the Director’s Cut on Sunday 2 April (16.15) contains 22 minutes of
never-seen-before footage. The standard cut will be screening from Friday 14 April.
Specially commissioned programme notes will be available.

The Student (M)uchenik
A Quiet Passion
Friday 14 – Thursday 20 April
Terence Davies’ A Quiet Passion offers a
sumptuous, deeply felt reflection on the life of
poet Emily Dickinson. Almost unknown in her
lifetime, Dickinson (a luminous Cynthia Nixon)
grew increasingly reclusive in her later years,
looking inwards for her creative inspiration.
Davies captures a sense of a stubborn, fiercely
independent woman too sensitive for an age
that seemed determined to stifle her hopes
and crush her spirit. Graced by memorable
performances from Jennifer Ehle as Emily’s
sister Lavinia and Catherine Bailey as her
friend Miss Buffan, this is an elegant portrait
of an artist. GFF17
Monday 17 – Thursday 20 April
Venya, a high school student in modern-day
Russia, believes that the world has been lost to
evil. Piously studying the Bible, he challenges
the morals and beliefs of all those around him,
particularly his mother and his liberal, Jewish
biology teacher Elena. Objecting Darwinian
theories of evolution and modern teachings on
sex, gender and sexuality, Venya begins to
reveal more about himself than the world
around him. Intelligently adapted from Marius
von Mayenburg’s play ‘Martyr’, this scathing
and satirical film balances its harsh social
critique with delicate and soaring
cinematography.

The Sense of an Ending
Friday 14 – Thursday 27 April
Divorced and retired, Tony Webster (Jim Broadbent) leads a relatively quiet life, until one day a
long-forgotten letter resurfaces, and begins to reframe his past in ways that he never could have
anticipated. Based on the award-winning bestseller from Julian Barnes, Ritesh Batra ( The
Lunchbox) artfully melds twin timelines as Tony pieces together his first love, and the heartbreak,
regrets and guilt that followed. Luminous performances from Broadbent and Charlotte Rampling
anchor this profound story about the elusiveness of memory and the allure of the past.
The screening on Monday 17 April (18.05) will be introduced by Alistair Harkness as part of
the Contemporary Cinema Course.

wordsmith hired to add a female perspective
to the films. Despite her talent she soon finds
herself battling for respect in a male

The Happiest Day in the
Life of Olli Mäki
Friday 21 – Thursday 27 April
Juho Kousmanen’s feel-good, award-winning
debut feature is a charming tribute to modest,
unassuming boxer Olli Mäki (Jarkko Lahti). In
1962, Mäki carried the hopes of the nation as
he trained for a Helsinki showdown with
American Davey Moore, the bantamweight
champion of the world. Mäki is feeling the

growing romance with Raija (Oona Airola).

From Friday 28 April
Ned is a gawky, artistic 16-year-old who is failing to settle into his new boarding school where
rugby is virtually a religion. He guards himself from the loneliness, ridicule and constant
insinuations about his sexuality with literature and music. Everything changes with the dual
arrival of new roommate Connor, a star rugby player, and inspirational English teacher Dan
Sherry. Ned and Connor bond over a shared passion for music and an unlikely friendship
blossoms; one that faces unbearable pressures from a school grimly attached to its macho
values. GFF17. Preceded by DepicT! Award-winning film Run Boy (Philipines 2016, 1m44s) by

turmoil of the mass protests that toppled the

heat of an already fraught day, rival
demonstrators, innocent bystanders, allies and
bitter foes are bundled into a police van. It is
the beginning of a living nightmare in which
the claustrophobic setting and frazzled

fascinating account of pioneering English
writer, archaeologist, diplomat and spy
Gertrude Bell. Despite the hugely significant
role that Bell played in post World War I
British imperial policy-making in the Middle

somewhat unacknowledged in history. Openly
critical of colonial practices, she helped shape
the destiny of the Middle East in a way that

A singular and daring outsider artist who is
preoccupied with the dark absurdities of the
American psyche, David Lynch has blazed a
truly unique trail through cinema in the past

Lynch will soon return to the small screen with
a revival of his unparalleled and much-loved
TV series Twin Peaks. We celebrate this
legendary filmmaker with this season of his

The Elephant Man
Sunday 9 (16.45) & Tuesday 11 April (20.15)
The only film David Lynch has made based on a true story; it is easy to see why Joseph’s
Merrick’s captivating tale of human dignity, caught the auteur’s attention. Severely deformed,
John Merrick (changed from Joseph for the film) is terribly mistreated by Victorian society, in
particular a freak show where he has found sad employment. It is only when he comes under
the care of doctor Frederick Treves that he is able to communicate his intelligence, sensitivity
and humility. Featuring a performance from the late, great John Hurt that is both measured and
staggeringly heartbreaking, The Elephant Man remains one of Lynch’s most affecting films.

Eraserhead
Friday 14 (23.00) & Sunday 16 April (13.30)
The incendiary debut feature of David Lynch, Eraserhead is a nocturnal odyssey like no other.
Filmed over several years on next to no budget, it had been labelled as too bizarre and
unclassifiable, but today is well remembered as one of the most seminal works in American
cinema. Jack Nance plays the wire-haired protagonist, who stalks Lynch’s industrial netherworld
and finds himself caring for a strange, inhuman offspring. The epitome of visionary cinema,
Eraserhead taught generations of filmmakers that it was possible to push the boundaries and
potential of cinema.
Director David Lynch Cast Jack Nance, Charlotte Stewart, Allen Joseph, USA 1977, 1h25m, 18
Lost Highway
Sunday 16 (16.00) & Tuesday 18 April (20.05)
‘Lost Highway deserves to be spoken of in the same breath as the cult director’s best work.’
- Little White Lies
Although it received some negative criticism on its release, David Lynch’s seventh feature has
since developed a strong cult following, a critical reappraisal and even been adapted into an
opera. Bill Paxton stars as a jazz saxophonist who is convicted of murdering his wife (Patricia
Arquette), who then inexplicably morphs into a young mechanic with a new life, one that
nonetheless begins to tangle with Fred’s life in a darkly surreal web of mystery.

Wild at Heart

David Lynch provides his very own unique take on The Wizard of Oz, following the passionate
relationship of Lula (Laura Dern) and Sailor (Nicholas Cage); a dream team on the run from the
mob. One of the most romantic – and violent – films in Lynch’s oeuvre, the film won the Palme
d’Or at the 1990 Cannes Film Festival but (like many of Lynch’s films) received both positive and
negative reviews from the audience before building up an ecstatic cult following.

Mulholland Drive
Sunday 30 April (18.45) & Tuesday 2 May (19.45)
Arguably David Lynch’s crowning cinematic glory, Mulholland Drive is a stunning film that
succeeds on multiple levels, being simultaneously a darkly comic Hollywood satire, a deeply
disturbing trip into a woman’s troubled mind and a hugely compelling riddle in film form. It’s
ambitious, puzzling and deftly cinematic, and it allowed Lynch to showcase a revelatory
performance from Naomi Watts as Betty/Diane, the two sides of Mulholland Drive’s split
personality.

TWIN PEAKS
Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me
Friday 5 (23.00) & Sunday 7 May (16.30)
In the pilot episode of Twin Peaks, the body of high-school student Laura Palmer is found
washed up on the banks of a river outside the titular town. Initially a symbol of young
innocence and purity, her troubles are gradually uncovered and the true darkness of the town
revealed. This prequel film recounts the last week of her life, along with the murder of a
night-shift waitress in the town of Deer Meadow. A necessary piece of the puzzle that
deserves to be seen on the big screen before the return of the television series.
Screening on 35mm.

Twin Peaks: The Missing Pieces
Sunday 14 (19.45) & Tuesday 16 May (18.15)
Rarely seen on the cinema screen, this is a feature length cut of the footage that David Lynch
was forced to edit out of his 1992 film Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. Assembled by Lynch
himself, the scenes in this edit range from the bizarre to the truly heart-breaking in their
exploration of Laura Palmer and the occupants of Twin Peaks. Offering much greater insight
into the numerous subplots of Fire Walk With Me, along with serving the greater mysteries
from the series as a whole, The Missing Pieces is a must see for any fan of Twin Peaks.

of Katherine (Pugh) to the older Alexander (Paul Hilton) is more of a business opportunity than a
love match. At the mercy of an oppressive male household, Katherine finds an ally in her maid
Anna (Naomie Ackie) and the possibility of escape in a reckless affair with stable hand Sebastian

resort island of Antiparos, forty-something
doctor Kostis (Chevalier’s Efthymis
Papadimitriou) becomes infatuated with a
group of hedonistic young tourists, particularly
21-year-old Anna. An amusingly discomforting

cautionary tale of a man’s quest to regain a
bygone youth.

Gino is a drifter, down-at-heel and magnetically handsome. At a road side restaurant he
encounters husband and wife, Giuseppe and Giovanna. Irresistibly attracted to each other, Gino
and Giovanna begin a fiery affair and plot to murder her husband. But, in this chilling tale of
passion and destruction, the crime only serves to tear them apart.
