DAM
A chilling supernatural local thriller in which a young woman living in Chile returns to her Eastern Cape home to bury her father. When she inherits his farm she finds that things are not what they seem and strange forces are operating beneath the picture-perfect façade of her small town.
Well-acted, eerily realised and intriguing, it's a solid psychological horror that asks some tough questions about the relationships between the past and the present and their effect on shaping identity.

BILLIE EILISH: THE WORLD'S A LITTLE BLURRY
Award-winning documentary director RJ Cutler takes a behind-the-scenes look at the path to global superstardom taken by teenage pop sensation Billie Eilish in the years leading up to her emergence from her parents' house as a 17-year-old pop culture phenomenon upon the release of her 2019 album When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?
It's an intriguing piece of musical biography that makes good use of its personal archive footage to create a picture of a woman who's a household name but also in many ways still an ordinary American teenager dealing with the everyday challenges of adolescence.
