Film Highlight | Petite Maman |
'Portrait of a Lady on Fire' was one of favourite films of 2020 and it was only natural that CĂ©line Sciamma's next project would be at the top of my list.
A tender, thoughtful, magical and nostalgic piece of filmmaking artistry that will pull you right in. Stream it on MUBI.

"Nelly, an 8-year-old girl, has just lost her beloved grandmother and is helping her parents clean out her mother's childhood home. One day, her mom abruptly leaves, and Nelly meets a girl her age as she's building a tree house in the woods." \\ |

TV Highlight | Love Death + Robots |
The award-winning animated anthology series returns with swashbuckling aplomb, tantalising visuals, evocative narratives and probably one of the best animated shorts of the year - in the final episode of the season 'Jibaro'.
Produced by David Fincher and Tim Miller, the series in its third season is its strongest yet. Take out time and watch this one. P.S. Check out Fincher's animation debut 'Bad Travelling'. |

Book Highlight | Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds & Shape Our Futures by Merlin Sheldrake |
Meet Merlin Sheldrake - who wouldn't want to read a book about Fungi by an author with that name?! - "a biologist and a writer with a background in plant sciences, microbiology, ecology, and the history and philosophy of science." Entangled Life is an eye-opening page turner that will make you appreciate and marvel at the inconspicuous world of fungi. P.S. That's him with a copy of his book being taken over by Oyster Mushrooms which he then goes on to pluck and eat. |
