• 100 Seasons

  This is a film about love, loneliness, and mental health as we see Giovanni navigating his severe bipolar disorder. 100 Seasons was realized in 15 years, and it’s a mix of real grainy documentary images from the protagonists’ youth mixed with fictional ones, and all the characters that you see in this film interpret themselves in real life.

  Giovanni said really beautiful about this film: 100 Seasons is for all his exes and for those goodbyes that never happened, it’s his way of saying, even though we’re not together anymore and it’s ok, I will forever love you.

• Matthias & Maxime

  The Notebook if it was gay and set in modern day Canada. The chemistry between the main leads was palpable – that kissing scene still has me in a chokehold. For the hopeless romantics among us: prepare to be obsessed

• Moving On

  You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll contemplate your own family dynamics after the credits roll. This slow, simple film is beautiful in the most delicate way. Highly recommend on a rainy afternoon with a blanket, a friend and copious amounts of tea

• Queen of Hearts

  Trine Dyrholm as both the protagonist and antagonist had me on the edge of my seat, questioning my allegiances. Do I like her? Understand her? Hate her? As the film progresses, the light scenes from the beginning get increasingly soaked with darkness and ugliness, until the light is completely drowned out. A film that stayed with me for years afterwards.

As we fondly last year's festival with our IFFR 2024 list, we are getting ready for for another unforgettable edition! Get ready for IFFR 2025, a leading international film festival that deepens appreciation of cinema in all its forms, from 30 January to 9 February.

From a missing film by late horror maestro George A. Romero, to a marxist vampire comedy, to a celebration of Hong Kong filmmaking great Ann Hui, Letterboxd’s West Coast editor Jack Moulton makes ten must-see recommendations for the June edition of IFFR 2021.

Be sure to click on [σσ Read notes] for Jack's commentary.

Check out our Letterboxd Story here: boxd.it/5KH
Read more about programme on our website: IFFR.com

• The Amusement Park

  “The missing film by the late horror maestro George A. Romero will finally be unearthed! It was commissioned in 1973 as a PSA from the Lutheran Society about ageism and elder abuse, but true to Romero form, it was shelved for its disturbing content — so we have to see it. Resident horror-honcho Cinemonster caught its debut screening in 2019 and felt it was ‘affecting, unsettling and a bit depressing’. Shudder obtained the streaming rights and will release the film on June 8th for North America, the UK, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand.”

• Bloodsuckers

  “Billed as a ‘marxist vampire comedy’, Julian Radlmaier’s Blutsauger is pitched by Letterboxd member Luke Gorham as ‘the orgy baby of [Cristi] Puiu, [Wes] Anderson, [Roy] Andersson, and [Jim] Jarmusch’. We have another sun-drenched summer horror movie to add to the pile with Midsommar. The film follows a Soviet refugee falling in love with a young German vampiress (and by the way, the capitalists are the vampires). Noted for its lush production, the film has charmed those who got to see its Berlin Film Festival premiere.”

• Chess of the Wind

  “Another recent rediscovery and restoration is featured at this year’s June leg of the festival. Banned upon the Iranian Revolution in 1979 for its takedown of class politics, Chess of the Wind was presumed lost until director Mohammad Reza Aslani’s children uncovered the original negatives in a junk shop in 2014. Featuring Oscar nominee Shohreh Aghdashloo’s debut performance, Letterboxd who witnessed its virtual New York and London Film Festival screenings last year claim that ‘this is a stately and formally immaculate piece of work’.”

• The Dinosaur

  “Encapsulating the Finnish film industry via one controversial director, The Dinosaur explores the life and career of the late Finnish director Rauni Mollberg, who directed The Earth is a Sinful Song and The Unknown Soldier and ed away in 2007. The documentary was shared with Finland and screened on Finnish television in March. Tottituominen notes in their Letterboxd review that documentarian Veikko Aaltonen ‘illustrates the contradictions inside Mollberg and the contradictions of making art and the problems with it very well’.”

• Fabian: Going to the Dogs

  “Another German attendee lauded for its rich production and astute politics after Blutsauger, Golden Bear contender Fabian oder Der Gang vor die Hunde explores on the brink of the Third Reich. The film is an epic romantic melodrama about a young copywriter whose world begins to fall apart after he falls in love with an actress. ‘[It] achieves in just under three hours the rare and crowning title of worthy successor to Berlin Alexanderplatz’s fifteen’, applauds Morris Yang, adding that it’s ‘aesthetically liberated and politically invigorating’.”

• Fan Girl

  “Filipina director Antoinette Jadaone’s latest film, Fan Girl, took the Letterboxd community by storm upon its initial screening in the Philippines late last year and subsequently swept the Metro Manila Film Festival awards. The story follows Jane, an obsessed teen, who experiences the disturbing consequences after she finds the opportunity to meet her celebrity hero. Though the ending has ostensibly already not aged well, the performances have been praised and it remains an ‘unflinching look at both obsessive fanaticism and toxic masculinity and chauvinistic entitlement’.”

• Hopper/Welles

  “Orson Welles is truly the gift that keeps on giving! A sit-down with the two legends captures a transitional moment in film history as Dennis Hopper was hot off the heels from the radical Easy Rider which would ignite the New Hollywood era. The stark black-and-white frame stays squarely on the cool-as-cucumber Hopper while Welles bellows from behind the camera, candidly chatting politics, sexuality, and cinema. Nicolò found that ‘it's exactly as fun, enlightening, and meandering as it sounds’, and it’s also a fitting revival for the age of the podcast.”

• Keep Rolling

  “Similar to The Dinosaur, the IFFR festival features another profile of a legendary film director. The documentary covers Ann Hui, one of the few female filmmakers who provided a key ingredient to the Hong Kong New Wave, which included directors John Woo and Wong Kar-Wai. Hui remains known for her prolific and humanist filmography, from Boat People to A Simple Life. Keep Rolling is highlighted in Jessica Yeung’s examination of Letterboxd’s Official Top 100 Narrative Feature Films Directed by Asian Women.”

• Poly Styrene: I Am a Cliché

  “Documentaries about musicians rarely get this personal. Co-directed by the daughter of the late Marianne Joan Elliott-Said — aka Poly Styrene — Celeste Bell retraces her mother’s footsteps, presenting her research and reconciliations for a heartfelt record of the singular punk icon, one of the first black female singer-songwriters of the early punk scene. FilmFan1971 praised the film as ‘a moving, intimate rock doc with a wealth of terrific archive footage.’ Prior knowledge of Poly Styrene and X-Ray Spex is not necessary — you’ll walk out a fan nevertheless. Oh bondage, up yours!”

• Woodlands Dark and Days Bewitched: A History of Folk Horror

  “An academic epic for those missing your most compelling film school classes. Woodlands Dark and Days Bewitched may breach the 3-hour mark, but this is only because it is an utter embarrassment of riches — director and Letterboxd member Kier-La Janisse could have easily continued for another 194 minutes. It takes both a historical and geographic approach to its topic and will promptly inspire motivation to watch all 209 films it features. Simply put: ‘In-depth, comprehensive, bad ass.’ Don’t miss Janisse’s Magic Hour episode with In the Earth director Ben Wheatley.”
