Christopher Vourlias The Joburg Film Festival returns to the heart of South Africa’s entertainment industry from March 11 – 16, with a seventh edition that organizers say is designed to celebrate “the shared experiences and emotions that unite us through the art of storytelling.” Building on Johannesburg’s reputation as the “city of gold,” the festival is organized around the theme of a “golden thread” running through its selection of nearly 100 feature-length and short films and documentaries. Among them is a mix that includes festival hits from the likes of Sundance, Berlin and Cannes, alongside films from the host nation and the African continent that will be reaching audiences for the first time.

Margot Robbie and Colin Farrell’s ‘A Big Bold Beautiful Journey’ Delayed From May to September

Sources close to production tell Variety that a September release was more appealing to the studio, as it’s filled with more horror and male-centered titles, allowing the female event film to stand out.

French Documentary Filmmaker Nicolas Philibert on the Need to Improvise: ‘I Plan for Something That Is Accidental’

Leo Barraclough International Features Editor French filmmaker Nicolas Philibert is one of the world’s leading documentary directors, but he remains “humble,” he told an audience Saturday at Thessaloniki Documentary Film Festival, which had presented him with its honorary Golden Alexander award the previous evening. Among other honors, Philibert won the European Film Award and was BAFTA nominated for “To Be and to Have,” and won Berlin’s Golden Bear for “On the Adamant.” In a discussion Saturday, Philibert said he doesn’t like to be described as an “observational filmmaker.” He is not merely recording reality, but “re-writing” it, he said. Philibert, who edits his own films, added that the most important thing was to construct a narrative.

‘Beginnings’ Review: Trine Dyrholm is Superb in an Emotionally Acute Portrait of a Divorce Disrupted

Guy Lodge Film Critic Two familiar premises for a personal crisis drama — the unraveling of a marriage, and recovery from a medical calamity — combine to raw and even surprising effect in Jeanette Nordahl‘s accomplished sophomore feature “Beginnings.” Arriving five years after her debut “Wildland,” a somber criminal drama quickened by an electric Sidse Babett Knudsen performance, the Danish writer-director’s follow-up once more uses confidently reserved craft and straightforward storytelling to place the spotlight on a gutsy big-name star turn, or two: this time from Trine Dyrholm and David Dencik, both without vanity and emotionally on edge as a long-married couple unsure how or when to end their relationship for good. It’s a fraught state of limbo even before sudden disaster strikes, as Dyrholm’s high-flying working mom suffers a debilitating stroke, and an already protracted divorce process is further placed on hold.
