In this edition of the show, Cinetopia founder Amanda Rogers is joined by co-producer Jim Ross (TAKEONECinema.net Managing Editor) and show regular and freelance critic Steph Brown. Between them, they cover four films and gear up for Glasgow Film Festival: Sam Levinson's Netflix lockdown release MALCOLM & MARIE; Guantanamo Bay legal drama THE MAURITANIAN from Kevin Macdonald; Gianfranco Rosi's observational documentary, NOTTURNO, of the war-torn regions recovering from the scars of ISIS; and Bryan Fogel's new documentary about the murder of Jamal Khashoggi, THE DISSIDENT. Jim also speaks to Alex Camilleri, director of LUZZU, which premiered recently at Sundance and won the Special Jury Award for acting, and Betty Stojnic returns to the show to tell us some of her highlights from International Film Festival Rotterdam.
