DESCRIPTION:<b>PRESENTED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE EMBASSY OF SWEDEN</b>\n\
 nIn 2011\, Swedish journalists Martin Schibbye (Gustaf Skarsgård) and Jo
 han Persson (Matias Varela) risk everything when they illegally cross th
 e border from Somalia into Ethiopia. After months of planning\, they are
  finally on the right path to report on how oil corporations have brough
 t the people of the Ogaden region to their knees – until they are shot a
 nd captured by the Ethiopian army. \n\nPut on trial for international te
 rrorism\, they are sentenced to eleven years in prison. With fellow jour
 nalists\, writers and politicians as their cellmates\, they find themsel
 ves subjected to daily beatings\, fierce repression\, and disease-ridden
  conditions – a fight for survival where humanity becomes their most val
 uable weapon.\n\nCommemorating this year’s World Press Freedom Day (May 
 3\, 2022)\, this Canberra premiere screening will be preceded with a one
 -on-one\, in-person conversation between Australian journalist Peter Gre
 ste and HE Henrik Cederin\, Ambassador of Sweden to Australia and New Ze
 aland. They will discuss the importance of freedom of speech and the iss
 ues faced by journalists in reporting from conflict areas.\n\nThe conver
 sation will begin at 7 pm\, prior to the film starting at 7:30 pm.\n\n\n

DESCRIPTION:Orphaned brothers Sam and Nathan Drake are caught and separat
 ed after attempting to steal a map that could lead to a fabled 16th cent
 ury treasure. Fifteen years later\, Nathan (Tom Holland) is informed by 
 fortune hunter Victor “Sully” Sullivan (Mark Wahlberg) that Sam has vani
 shed while tracking that same treasure and agrees to help him find his b
 rother. What starts off as an attempt to solve one of the world’s oldest
  mysteries soon becomes a perilous race to reach the $5 billion in treas
 ure before a corrupt billionaire (Antonio Banderas). \n\nThe Uncharted v
 ideo games are widely considered among the greatest ever made\, thanks i
 n large part to its globe-trotting\, treasure-hunting gameplay that owes
  a great debt to the screen adventures of one Dr. Indiana Jones. And now
  we’ve come full circle with Uncharted having been turned into a thrilli
 ng film in its own right.\n\n\n-

DESCRIPTION:In 1925\, the wealthy Burbank brothers make a pit stop at a r
 estaurant during a cattle drive. There\, kind-hearted younger brother Ge
 orge (Jesse Plemons) meets widowed proprietress Rose (Kristen Dunst) and
  her teenage son\, Peter (Kodi Smit-McPhee).\n\nGeorge is immediately sm
 itten\, and it’s not long before he and Rose are married and she moves o
 nto the Burbank ranch with him. Suspect of her intentions\, domineering 
 older brother Phil (Benedict Cumberbatch) makes it his mission to wage a
  covert war of intimidation against his brother’s new wife. Much to ever
 yone’s surprise\, however\, he decides to take impressionable young Pete
 r under his wing. Could Phil finally be softening or is there something 
 more malicious at play?\n\nKiwi director Jane Campion’s latest is an exq
 uisitely crafted revisionist Western that is without a doubt one of the 
 best films of 2021. With a leading 12 nominations at this year’s Oscars\
 , it is notably the most Oscar-nominated Australian/New Zealand producti
 on in history too – and rightfully so!\n\n\n-

DESCRIPTION:Desperate for money\, two adopted brothers (Jake Gyllenhaal\,
  Yahya Abdul-Mateen II) rob a Los Angeles bank in one of the biggest hei
 sts in history. Finding themselves short of a getaway vehicle\, they hij
 ack what they presume is an empty ambulance. But it isn’t: the vehicle a
 lso contains a paramedic (Eiza González) and a critically injured cop (J
 ackson White). As they desperately flee the police outside\, they must a
 lso keep the policeman inside alive.\n\nMichael Bay has taken a 2005 Dan
 ish film of the same title\, and as is his wont\, dialled up the action\
 , mayhem and attitude to eleven – and also inflated the running time. Ye
 t for him\, Ambulance also marks a return to low-budget film-making (or 
 at least low-budget for him): closer to the likes of Bad Boys or The Roc
 k than to the Transformers series.\n\n\n-

  which for many years was the home (and often shooting location) of lege
 ndary Swedish director Ingmar Bergman. His long association with the isl
 and has turned it into a minor shrine for directors\, writers and artist

 hose story we see interwoven with that of the film they are making (star
 ring Mia Wasikowska\, who also plays herself outside of the film-within-

  keep things simple and emotionally direct in this rumination on romance
  and creativity.\n\n\n-

 line of humanoid robots. He is designed to be the perfect life partner b

 . In order to obtain funds for her research\, German scientist Alma (Mar

 y in German. And fans of Toni Erdmann (previously presented by the Germa
 n Embassy at the ANUFG) will enjoy seeing Sandra Hüller as Tom’s handler

  does what he can to spare the animals from the predations of the dark w
 izard Grindelwald (Mads Mikkelsen\, replacing Johnny Depp)\, who believe
 s he can harness their powers by killing them. Opposition to Grindelwald
  falls largely on the shoulders of Newt and his allies\, as Albus Dumble

 indelwald directly.\n\nFollowing the lead of the first two films (and se

 hoices of late have left him feeling creatively unfulfilled and facing f
 inancial ruin. So when his agent (Neil Patrick Harris) calls with a $1 m

 t a billionaire super fan’s (Pedro Pascal) birthday party. \n\nThere may
  be more going on than meets the eye\, however\, when two CIA agents (Ti
 ffany Haddish\, Ike Barinholtz) call on Cage to spy on his genial host\,
  who could be a ruthless arms dealer. It’s not long before Cage is embro
 iled in shenanigans that could be straight out of a\, well\, Nicolas Cag
 e movie.\n\nRegardless of what you think of the man himself\, this meta-
 action-comedy is a surprisingly thoughtful ode to the magic of movies – 
 and the transcendent\, multi-faceted movie star that is Nicolas Cage.\n\

  a stage musical at least three times – most recently by Erica Schmidt\,
  who wrote her 2018 version as a vehicle for her husband\, Peter Dinklag

 ar Cyrano: a soldier who is desperately in love with his lifelong friend
  Roxanne (Haley Bennett)\; while Roxanne has fallen for another soldier 
 in his company\, Christian (Kelvin Harrison Jr). Too self-conscious abou
 t his height to declare himself\, Cyrano instead pours out his feelings 
 in letters to Roxanne he writes on behalf of\, and as a favour to\, Chri
 stian. There is also a third competitor for Roxanne’s heart\, whose jeal
 ousy will be the catalyst for tragedy.\n\nDirected by Joe Wright (Atonem
 ent\, Darkest Hour)\, this is a lush and sumptuous take on the oft-told 
 tale\, buoyed by yet another terrific performance from Dinklage.\n\n\n-

 rror to create cinematic experiences that are equally beautiful and frig
 htening. His latest film\, The Northman\, is an adrenaline-fuelled epic 
 which surpasses his previous works in nearly every way.\n\nBased on the 
 medieval Scandinavian legend of Amleth – which directly inspired Shakesp
 eare’s Hamlet – the film begins with a young Viking prince witnessing th
 e murder of his father (Ethan Hawke) at the hands of his uncle (Claes Ba
 ng)\, who then takes his mother (Nicole Kidman) as his own queen. Years 
 later\, the prince has become a warrior (Alexander Skarsgård) who is pro
 pelled by supernatural forces and driven by obsession to embark on a que
 st. His goal: avenge his father\, save his mother\, and kill his uncle. 
 \n\nStark\, brutal and intensely beautiful\, The Northman must be experi
 enced in a cinema.\n\n\n-

DESCRIPTION:<b>PRESENTED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE EMBASSY OF GEORGIA</b>\n
 \nWhen Varlam Aravidze (Avtandil Makharadze)\, the mayor of a small Geor
 gian town\, passes away\, he receives a solemn funeral befitting any res
 pected statesman. But the peace in which he rests is short-lived: the ne
 xt day\, his corpse is found in the garden of his family home. The body 
 is reburied\, but despite best efforts\, Varlem is repeatedly unearthed 
 by unknown culprits. As the townspeople try to figure out who keeps digg
 ing up their dead mayor – and why – the despotic nature of his oppressiv
 e regime comes to light.\n\nScreening in celebration of 30 years of Aust
 ralian-Georgian diplomatic relations\, this critically acclaimed anti-to
 talitarian fable was recently restored in preparation for a return visit
  last year to the Cannes Film Festival – where it originally premiered i
 n 1987 and won three prizes\, including the Grand Prix jury award.\n\n\n

DESCRIPTION:[This is a No Guests screening]\n\nIn 1961\, Spanish artist F
 rancisco Goya’s ‘Portrait of the Duke of Wellington’ was stolen from the
  National Gallery in London. Nobody knew who had taken the portrait and 
 this led to much speculation\, including a cameo appearance in Dr. No’s 
 headquarters in the 1962 James Bond film.\n\nThe Duke is based on the st
 ory of what happened to the painting. Instead of the originally suspecte
 d major international crime syndicate\, we are introduced to Kempton Bun
 ton (Jim Broadbent)\, a working class\, 60-year-old taxi driver. Bunton 
 was committed to rectifying social injustices\, particularly in relation
  to care for the elderly\, a crusade which impacted upon his marriage to
  Dorothy (Helen Mirren). At his trial\, Bunton would plead not guilty to
  the theft of the painting. Who really stole the portrait?\n\nThis is th
 e penultimate film directed by Roger Michell (Notting Hill)\, who passed
  away in September 2021. His final film\, Elizabeth: A Portrait in Part(
 s)\, screens later this season on June 25.\n\n-

DESCRIPTION:It’s been 50 years since Francis Ford Coppola gave moviegoers
  an offer they couldn’t refuse: an iconic\, essential masterpiece of cin
 ema which explored the meaning of family and the American dream in the g
 uise of an operatic gangster epic. Ask any movie buff to come up with a 
 list of the greatest films of all time\, and The Godfather is almost gua
 ranteed to be on there.\n\nBased on Mario Puzo’s novel of the same name\
 , the film follows aging patriarch Vito Corleone (Marlon Brando) as he m
 akes preparations to cede control of his organised crime empire to his y
 oungest son\, Michael (Al Pacino). Initially reluctant\, Michael soon fi
 nds himself drawn deeper into the family business – and the inevitable c
 ycle of violence and betrayal that follows.\n\nMore than 5\,000 hours of
  work was undertaken to meticulously restore the film under Coppola’s di
 rection in time for this milestone anniversary\, and it has never looked
  better.\n\n\n-

 e recent loss of her beloved maternal grandmother when she accompanies h
 er parents to help clear out her mother’s childhood home. Exploring the 
 surrounding woods one day\, she encounters a young girl her own age buil
 ding a treehouse. They become fast friends\, until Nelly realises that t
 he girl\, named Marion (Gabrielle Sanz)\, is somehow a younger version o
 f her own mother.\n\nPetite Maman is a captivating\, fantastical coming 
 of age story that explores childhood and a mother-daughter relationship 
 that crosses through time. Much like the rest of French filmmaker Céline
  Sciamma’s (Portrait of a Lady on Fire\, Girlhood) body of work\, it is 
 a powerful and delicate film that will stay with you long after the cred
 its have rolled.\n\n\n-

DESCRIPTION:Baz Luhrmann takes on the king of rock ‘n’ roll in this epic 
 biographical musical drama.\n\nFilmed in Australia and featuring a bevy 
 of Australian talent in supporting roles\, the film stars American relat
 ive newcomer Austin Butler (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood) in the title 
 role\, with Tom Hanks playing his enigmatic manager\, Colonel Tom Parker
 . Their complex and decades-spanning relationship forms the backdrop of 
 the story that moves from Elvis’ childhood to his breakthrough and rise 
 as a rock ‘n’ roll legend and eventual movie star\, along with the chall
 enges that follow in an evolving cultural landscape.\n\nWith Luhrmann’s 
 distinctive directorial style centred on Presley’s energetic and provoca
 tive charisma\, this is likely a film where subtlety takes a back seat –
  but one that you can’t help falling in love with.\n\n\n-
