In this special edition of the show, previewing Glasgow Film Festival 2021, Cinetopia founder Amanda Rogers is joined by co-producer Jim Ross (TAKEONECinema.net Managing Editor) and show regulars and freelance critics Marc Nelson and Steph Brown. Together they review four films screening at the festival: Ben Sharrock's Limbo, the story of a Syrian refugee on a remote Scottish island; Apples, Christos Nikou's absurdist tale of memory loss and identity; Minari, Lee Isaac Chung's family portrait of Korean-Americans settling in 1980s Arkansas; and City Hall, the legendary Frederick Wiseman's observational documentary of local government in Boston. Amanda also spoke to Paul Sng, co-director of documentary Poly Styrene: I Am A Cliché, which world premieres at the festival.
