It Was Just An Accident - screening at Deckchair Cinema

DIFF concludes with one of the year’s essential films - winner of the 2025 Cannes Palme d’Or and the headline prize at Sydney Film Festival. A minor accident sets in motion a series of events in which an ex-political prisoner comes to believe he has been reunited with his torturer. An ethically complex thriller by legendary Iranian writer-director Jafar Pahani, who - despite being banned from filmmaking by his government since 2010 and imprisoned several times - is the only living filmmaker to win the top prizes at Cannes, Venice and Berlin.

Screeening with short film I'm The Most Racist Person I Know.

When Lali unexpectedly ends up on a date with another woman of colour for the first time, it unravels prejudices she has long ignored.
