Remake | Ross McElwee, United States, 2025, 117′, spoken in English, Dutch subtitles.
Winner of the Beeld & Geluid IDFA ReFrame Award 2025.
The death of his son Adrian forces Ross McElwee to look back. Did he miss something? Through old family videos and memories, the filmmaker tries to make sense of how both of their lives unfolded.
Past Future Continuous | Morteza Ahmadvand, Firouzeh Khosrovani, Iran, Norway, 2025, 76′, spoken in Farsi and English, Dutch subtitles.
Winner of the IDFA Award for Best Film 2025 in the Envision Competition.
A woman who has fled Iran asks her parents, who remained behind, to install cameras in their home so she can stay connected from afar. Through these recordings, she reflects on family, political unrest in Tehran, and the longing for a place to call home.
An Open Field | Teboho Edkins, South Africa, France, 2025, 38′, spoken in Amharic and English, Dutch subtitles.
Winner of the IDFA Award for Best Short Documentary 2025.
Teboho Edkins visits, together with his father, the site in Ethiopia where his brother died in a plane crash in 2019. There, they encounter a deeply grieving community that lovingly commemorates the victims of the disaster.
A Fox Under a Pink Moon | Mehrdad Oskouei, Iran, France, 2025, 76′, spoken in Persian, Dari, and Turkish, Dutch subtitles.
Winner of the IDFA Award for Best Film 2025 in the International Competition.
A subtly layered self-portrait of Soraya, an unconventional 16-year-old artist who has been trying for years to flee from Iran to Europe—harrowing journeys she films on her mobile phone. She pours all her fears and anxieties into extraordinary works of art.
