Louise Labrousse
After earning a degree in animation cinema from ESAAT in Roubaix in 2018, where she developed her directing aspirations, Louise Labrousse was recognized by the “La Première des Marches” program under ACAP’s “Talents en Court” label. She then joined Tchack, where she developed and directed Stuffed (2024), co-produced by Gao Shan Pictures. She particularly likes women’s stories and gender cinema. As an emerging author, Louise Labrousse aims to promote the role of women in the field of filmmaking. In 2022, she co-founded the feminist production association Filles En Feu.

Possible Love
Lee Chang-dong’s first film since Burning (2018) is a sardonic, slow-burning satire about two couples: a documentary filmmaker married to a wealthy businessman, and a working-class family struggling to make ends meet after the husband has been laid off.
Get Out
Guess who's coming to dinner? Daniel Kaluuya is the Black boyfriend justifiably anxious about meeting his white girlfriend's folks for the first time in Jordan Peele's satiric modern horror classic, one of a series curated by our VIFF+ Premium members.
The Exorcist
Thirteen-year-old Linda Blair is Regan, the movie star daughter who is possessed by a demon, and whose body becomes a spiritual battleground. It builds slowly, carefully, into a maelstrom of sheer unadulterated horror.
La Bola Negra
A big, old-school historical melodrama gets a thrillingly modern, queer makeover from Spanish duo Javier Calvo and Javier Ambrossi, who artfully juggle three gay protagonists across stories set in 1932, 1937, and 2017. Winner: Best Director, Cannes. Screening on 35mm.
The History of Concrete
After attending a workshop on pitching saccharine Hallmark movies, John Wilson tries to apply all the same best practices to his documentary about concrete. Frequently absurd and endlessly entertaining detours, asides, and digressions ensue.
