Super/Man: The Story of Christopher Reeve is a deeply moving documentary that chronicles the life of the eponymous actor who became a symbol of hope and strength. Reeve’s portrayal of Superman in four films made him an iconic star and set the benchmark for superhero cinema – but it was only after a 1995 horse-riding accident left him paralysed from the neck down that Reeve’s true heroism emerged.
This multi-award-winning documentary reveals his transformation from movie star to passionate activist, advocating for spinal cord injury research and disability rights, all while remaining dedicated to his family and career. Featuring never-before-seen footage, personal archives, and interviews with Reeve’s children and colleagues, this is an intimate and inspiring portrait of an extraordinary life.

In this mind-bending sci-fi thriller from Oscar-winning director Bong Joon-ho (Parasite), Robert Pattinson stars as Mickey Barnes, an expendable worker for a deep-space colonisation mission. If you thought your job was tough, Mickey’s involves being assigned only the most dangerous tasks to avoid putting others in the colony at risk. Fortunately, if he does die, a new Mickey can be generated with most of his memories intact.
But when Mickey 17 unexpectedly survives an icy expedition after being reported dead, he finds himself at odds with his latest “multiple”, Mickey 18. What follows is an unexpected and thought-provoking journey – with Bong Joon-ho’s signature blend of dark humour and social commentary – as Mickey confronts not only the danger of his work but the ethics of his existence.
