THERE'S STILL TOMORROW.
Italy, subtitles, 2023, Dramatic comedy
Delia lives in Rome in the late 1940s in a working-class community which is slowly but surely rebuilding itself after the war. She shares a small flat with her domineering husband, their three children and her sick father-in-law.
Delia resolutely deals with the daily challenges of family life and has a best friend with whom she shares moments of levity. Delia’s dream though is for her daughter, Marcella to one day have a better life than she does. Delia is resigned to her fate - the good with the bad - until one day a mysterious letter arrives.
"An inspiring story that delights in small victories and the dream of female empowerment." - Screen International

From trekking through Nepal and enduring the cold in Antarctica to immersing themselves in Aboriginal culture in the Australian Outback, their epic retirement proves that age is no barrier to discovery.

COPA 71
UK, 2023, Documentary, 90 mins
Copa 71 follows the history of the 1971 Women's Football World Cup. A huge event at the time, it was later sidelined by football's governing body and all trace of it faded into obscurity.
Now, this doco seeks to restore this major sporting contest into its rightful place in history as one of the most significant events ever held.
Told by the pioneering women who took part, this is the detailed story (with previously unseen footage) of a spectacular tournament witnessed by record crowds.
"A timely documentary which reveals the fascinating and shocking story of a forgotten moment in football history." – Time Out
