MUBI HIGHLIGHTS: OCTOBER 2020

 

SWALLOW (2019)

MUBI WORLD

This October MUBI WORLD will present a number of hand-picked and award winning international titles, including Kirsten Dunst starrer Marie Antoinette (2006), the Cannes Jury Prize winner Capernaum (2018) and the acclaimed psychological thriller Swallow (2019), which premiered at Tribeca Film Festival 2019 and saw its lead Hayley Bennett win Best Actress. 

Werner Schroeter’s Malina (1991) will also show exclusively on the platform next month. Starring Isabelle Huppert, the film is an adaptation of Ingeborg Bachmann’s novel, and charts a female writer’s passage to self-destruction as she is torn between two lovers, one of whom is her husband.

Our New Brazilian Cinema special will continue showing the best of contemporary Brazilian cinema. In the wake of the country’s recent unprecedented political turmoil, Brazil’s filmmakers continue to produce poignant, urgent cinema, and films that will feature this month include Your Turn (2019) by Eliza Capai, Babenco: Tell Me When I Die (2019) by Bárbara Paz, Sol alegria (2018) by Tavinho Teixeira and Home (2019) by Letícia Simões.

MUBI INDIA

Female protagonists lead the way on MUBI INDIA this month. October will feature Malayalam movie Autorsha (2018) by Sujith Vaassudev and Bengali film Dahan (1997) by the acclaimed Rituparno Ghosh. The section will also present the much-praised Aunty Sudha Aunty Radha (2019) by Tanuja Chandra as part of the special focus on Women of Indian Cinema.

We continue our ongoing Amit Dutta special titled The Inimitable Image: An Amit Dutta Retrospective. As one of India’s most distinctive and unique contemporary cinematic voices, Amit operates outside of India’s conventional film industry hubs, and his deeply meditative films explore diverse forms of artistic expression. Dutta’s prolific body of work has garnered admiration from major film festivals, including Venice and Rotterdam. This month we will be showing An Invitation (2017), A Visit (2017), Scenes from a Sketchbook (2016), Two Expeditions (2017), The Seventh Walk (2014) and Drawn from Dreams (2019)
