This provocative Palme D’or winner is equal parts horrifying and hilarious. Titane follows one person (Agathe Rousselle) along a journey seeking love and acceptance. As a child they were in a horrific car accident, and as a result have a metal plate in the side of their head alongside a lifelong obsession with vehicles. This obsession mutates in increasingly grisly ways, as their life starts to unravel around them.

Titane is playing as part of the Tetsuo And Beyond season presented with the National Film and Television School’s Film Studies, Programming and Curation MA.

Funeral Parade is proud to present Breakfast on Pluto, Neil Jordan’s 1970s-set glam rock daydream about a transgender woman’s personal odyssey, from Ireland during the Troubles to the sleazy backstreets of Soho.

After having been abandoned as a baby and shunned as a child, Patricia “Kitten” Braden (Cillian Murphy), a starry-eyed dreamer from a small Irish town, sets off for London in hopes of finding her long-lost mother. Along the way she’ll find herself falling for an IRA-affiliated glam rocker (Gavin Friday), working alongside a foul-mouthed Womble (Brendan Gleeson), and becoming glamourous assistant to an eccentric magician (Stephen Rea). But in a world that’s so intent on being serious, will Kitten manage to have any fun? 20 years after its initial release, Jordan’s film remains a powerful story about the search for love and acceptance in face of bigotry and intolerance.

Clint Eastwood’s 1971 directorial debut is defined by female obsession. Evelyn Draper’s (Jessica Walter) innocent crush on a radio jockey, Dave (Eastwood) soon spirals into a dangerous, possessive desire for control. Play Misty for Me explores when desire turns deadly – the thin line between romantic infatuation, and psychological unravelling.

Play Misty for Me is screening as part of Women in Flux, presented in association with the National Film and Television School’s Film Studies, Programming and curation MA.

Barbara Loden’s first and only feature film as a director is a portrait of a woman adrift.

Tetsuo The Iron Man’s sequel operates as a companion piece, a twisted tale of metallic transformation and revenge. After his son is kidnapped by a metal obsessive, a salaryman (Tomorowo Taguchi) finds his unwilling body transformed into machine. Bringing in images of body building, guns and bizarre sex rituals, Tetsuo II: Body Hammer is an entertaining cyberpunk tale.

Tetsuo II: Body Hammer is screening as part of the season Tetsuo And Beyond, presented with the National Film and Television School’s Film Studies, Programming and Curation MA.

Featuring exclusive Video Intro from Director Alex Winter!

Ashley Hans Scherli’s (Flaming Ears) queer, avant -garde wonderwork Dandy Dust is a transgressive transmission from the future of gender. This rare screening follows gender fluid cyborg Dust (Ashley Hans Scherli) hurtling through space and time, seeking both memory and identity. Truly transgressive, Dandy Dust invites us to ignore the limits of our bodies and the place in which we occupy them.

Dandy Dust beams into the Prince Charles Cinema as part of the Tetsuo And Beyond Season. The season is presented with the National Film and Television School’s Film Studies, Programming and Curation MA.
