FAMILIAR TOUCH (12A) Dir: Sarah Friedland | USA | 2025 | 92 mins
Cast | Kathleen Chalfant, Carolyn Michelle Smith, Andy McQueen, H. Jon Benjamin

A retired cook, Ruth (Kathleen Chalfant) prepares breakfast. It’s a dish she’s often made before, but she keeps making mistakes. When her son (H. Jon Benjamin) arrives, she mistakes him for a suitor, and their “date” takes them to an assisted living facility, where Ruth feels certain she does not belong. But as she slowly begins to accept the support of the facility’s care workers, she finds new ways to ground herself in her body, even as her mind embarks on a journey all its own.
Writer-director Sarah Friedland’s exquisite “coming-of-old-age” debut compassionately follows the winding path of Ruth’s shifting memories and desires. Shot on location at a retirement community in California, and boasting a masterful performance from Chalfant, Familiar Touch is a quietly radical portrait of a woman living with dementia that eschews the usual tropes, instead prioritising Ruth’s perspective throughout.

KÖLN 75 (15) Dir: Ido Fluk | Germany, Poland, Belgium | 2026 | 117 mins | Subtitled
Cast | Mala Emde, John Magaro, Michael Chernus, Alexander Scheer

Website tagline
Köln 75 tells the fascinating and unlikely story of the legendary concert that became the best-selling solo album in jazz history.

Website full copy
In 1975 Köln, a masterpiece was made – but history almost didn’t happen. Ido Fluk’s evocative, entertaining dramatisation of the unlikely path to award-winning jazz musician Keith Jarrett’s legendary performance – a concert conceived of and organised by a teenage girl – is a real delight.

The enthusiasm of young, up-and-coming concert promoter Vera Brandes (Mala Emde) is boundless. Having started to organise concerts aged 15, Keith Jarrett’s (John Magaro) show pushes her to new level of multitasking – from booking the venue, promoting the event and selling tickets, to convincing Jarrett to perform when he almost drops out at the 11th hour after the Bösendorfer Imperial Grand piano he was promised is nowhere to be found…

Sublimely played by Magaro as the intense Jarrett and Emde as the unstoppable Brandes, Köln 75 captures the fascinating backstory of Jarrett’s one-hour, entirely improvised concert, which became the best-selling solo album in jazz history.

ROSE OF NEVADA (15) Dir: Mark Jenkin | UK | 2025 | 114 mins
Cast | George MacKay, Callum Turner, Francis Magee, Edward Rowe

Bait director Mark Jenkin returns with a mysterious time-travelling odyssey, shot in painterly 16mm and starring George MacKay (1917) and Callum Turner (Emma).
30 years ago, the Rose of Nevada was lost at sea with all hands. When it reappears in the harbour of a rundown Cornish fishing village, it feels like a sign: if the Rose sets sail again, perhaps the village’s luck will turn. Nick (George MacKay) takes a job aboard, joined by drifter Liam (Callum Turner). The boat and its voyage are symbols of hope, but when Nick and Liam dock again, something strange has happened – instead of moving into the future, they have re-entered the past.
Rose of Nevada is an unconventional story about grief, identity and the vagaries of time. Like Bait, it’s shot in 16mm (though this time in bold colour) and delights in distinctive texture and composition in a way that makes it feel like a found object – a film by and of Cornwall and the sea.

TUNER (15) Dir: Daniel Roher | USA | 2025 | 107 mins
Cast | Leo Woodall, Havana Rose Liu, Tovah Feldshuh, Jean Reno, Dustin Hoffman

Leo Woodall (The White Lotus, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy) and Oscar-winner Dustin Hoffman (The Graduate, Kramer vs Kramer) star in Oscar-winning documentarian Daniel Roher’s (Navalny) acclaimed narrative debut. A captivating shapeshifter, it’s part low-key thriller, part charming romance.
Veteran piano tuner Harry Horowitz (Hoffman) is losing his hearing, but his shy apprentice Niki’s (Woodall) is incredibly sensitive. Together, they’re the best tuners in town. But when Niki’s skills are called on in unusual circumstances, he’s exposed to a criminal but lucrative potential side trade – shortly before he meets and begins to fall for music composition student Ruthie (Havana Rose Liu).
With a sly, witty script, original music by Marius de Vries and charismatic performances from Woodall, Hoffman and Liu, Tuner is a playful and satisfying watch.
