Today I had the other worldly pleasure of interviewing the genre bending, relentlessly creative Toro Y Moi (Chaz Bear) to chat about process, creativity and his most experimental and eclectic offering yet - HOLE ERTH. Check out all things Toro HERE HERE
INSIDE/OUT
IN - Bi-Mok by Baro Lee explores grief and family ties through the story of Soo Ji, a 12-year-old struggling after her father's disappearance at sea and her mother's absence, living with her grandmother in a steelwork town. Fifteen years later, she returns to reconnect with her ailing grandmother. The film uses symbolic, minimalist storytelling to evoke unspoken grief, with visual cues highlighting the loneliness of migration. Lee draws from personal experiences, aiming to inspire healing among culturally diverse families. Watch it (and many other beautiful films) HERE for free
OUT - My friend Meg and I have started a little two person cinema club - We kicked things off with heading to the Randwick Ritz (Love an art deco cinema!) to see Irish biopic Kneecap - Directed by Rich Peppiatt. It follows the rise of an Irish-language hip-hop group in Belfast during a politically charged time. Combining sharp humor, gritty crime, and political activism, the film has drawn comparisons to Trainspotting for its rebellious spirit and energetic storytelling. At its core, Kneecap reflects themes of cultural identity, censorship, and resistance, as the group uses music to inspire their fans to reconnect with their heritage - It is really bloody funny.
