A BROTHER’S LOVE – ★★★☆ – French Canadian comedy/drama about a academic’s journey trying to find herself. Wasn’t bad, but lost steam by the end. #MIFF2019

SUEDE: THE INSATIABLE ONES – ★★★★★ – brilliant documentary about this UK Band. Wonderful to see Justine Frischmann again, and incredibly insightful perspectives from the band. #MIFF2019

AKASHA – not rated – second film in a row that I drifted off to sleep. I suspect this one’s on me as it seemed okay for the parts I saw. To quote a fellow attendee, “like a Sudanese ‘Dumb and Dumber'”

FIRE WILL COME – not rated – Did I not enjoy it because I fell asleep or did I fall asleep because I did not enjoy it?

IT MUST BE HEAVEN – ★★★★ – Palestinian film that admits itself that it doesn’t need to be given it’s global settings. Very Jacques Tati-esque with a series of often amusing vignettes around an almost speech free lead. #MIFF2019
