Set in a dystopian near-future Tokyo, Neo Sora’s striking feature explores a group of teenagers rebelling against societal expectations. The film is a vivid coming-of-age portrait, following best friends Yuta and Kou as they confront a world where AI surveillance is tightening under the yoke of oppressive authoritarianism. Infused with the raw energy and pulsing with a techno soundtrack, HAPPYEND is a hopeful, youthful vision of resistance and joy in the face of control.

This screening is in collaboration with Gig Buddies who'll introduce the film. It will be autism-friendly with lower volume and slightly brighter lighting.⁠ Gig Buddies is an organisation committed to empowering adults with learning disabilities and/or autism to access the best of London. They do this by pairing them up with a friend with similar interests, in this case movie fans!

The toys are back in Disney and Pixar’s “Toy Story 5,” and this time around it’s Toy meets Tech. Buzz, Woody, Jessie and the rest of the gang’s jobs get exponentially harder when they go head to head with this all-new threat to playtime.

Set on Vancouver Island in the late 1990s, Blue Heron follows eight‑year‑old Sasha and her Hungarian immigrant family as they attempt to build a new life, only to be destabilised by the increasingly dangerous behaviour of her older brother, Jeremy. Drawing on her own memories, filmmaker Sophy Romvari shapes a deeply personal portrait of childhood, family fractures, and the fragility of recollection.
