Hi everyone,

We have a great selection of world cinema this month. Ken Loach’s latest film The Angels' Share is about a Scotch heist, while Australia brings us The Sapphires (including a dash of Irish from Chris O’Dowd), and from the Philippines comes the powerful thriller Graceland.

As well, guest curators Matt Bowes and Brendan Brown have assembled four films from the 60s by Japanese director Seijun Suzuki. The series starts this month with Tokyo Drifter and Gate of Flesh, and continues in July with Youth of the Beast and Branded to Kill.
