Felicity Beckett talks to director Shaunak Sen about his new film, All That Breathes, in cinemas now. 

As legions of birds fall from New Delhi’s darkening skies, and the city smoulders with social unrest, two brothers race to save a small (but not insignificant) casualty of the turbulent times: the black kite, a majestic bird of prey essential to their city's ecosystem.  Winner of the Best Documentary prize at both the Cannes Film Festival and the Sundance Film Festival.

Hosted by Picturehouse’s very own Sam Clements, The Love Of Cinema podcast is proudly supported by Kia.

Sam is joined by writer-director Chris Butler from Laika Studios to discuss the 10th anniversary re-release of ParaNorman.

As a co-writer of Coraline and the co-director of Flushed Away respectively, Chris Butler and Sam Fell had just the credentials to create arguably the most innovative 3D animation to date.

Employing a unique hybrid of CGI and stop-motion technology, ParaNorman tells of a town besieged by rudely awakened and rather irate zombies.

The town’s only hope of salvation is Norman, a boy blessed with the ability to understand the zombies’ language (voiced by Kodi Smit-McPhee, in a role that could hardly be more different from his character in The Road).

As he battles with ghosts, witches and moronic adults as well as the living dead, Norman’s supernatural powers are entertainingly stretched to their limits, and the film’s breathtaking pace is further enhanced by stellar voicing from the likes of John Goodman, Elaine Stritch and Casey Affleck.

Host Felicity Beckett speaks to Steve Coogan and Philippa Langley about their new film, The Lost King. 

In 2012, having been lost for over 500 years, the remains of King Richard III were discovered beneath a car park in Leicester.

The search had been orchestrated by an amateur historian, Philippa Langley, whose unrelenting research had been met with incomprehension by her friends and family and with scepticism by experts and academics.

The Lost King is the life-affirming true story of a woman who refused to be ignored and who took on the country's most eminent historians, forcing them to think again about one of the most controversial kings in England's history.

Picturehouse’s very own Issy Macleod is joined by director Masaaki Yuasa to discuss his latest film, Inu-oh. 

Inu-Oh is born with unique physical characteristics, and the horrified adults cover every inch of his body with garments, including a mask on his face.

Inu-Oh and Tomona become business partners and inseparable friends, using their creative gifts to survive on the margins of society, as song after song gain them notoriety and propel them to stardom.

Through the songs, Inu-Oh mesmerizes his audiences on stage, and gradually begins to transform into someone of unequaled beauty.

Ignorant of the fact that the island faces a water shortage, they ask for someone to fix it.
