🎬Memoria

MEMORIA returns to IPH for the 5th year in a row on its “Forever” Theatrical Tour (we first screened the film in June of 2022). Since the film’s release in 2021, the film has only ever been released in a never-ending theatrical version and in-cinemas only. We are excited to once again give our audience a yearly opportunity to discover this unique film on the BIG SCREEN at IPH!

🎬One morning, Jessica Holland, a Scottish orchid farmer visiting her sister in Bogotá, is woken by a loud ‘bang’. This haunting sound dispels her sleep for days, calling into question her identity and guiding her from recording studios to secluded jungle villages in an attempt to find its source.

🍿 NOW SHOWING 🍿
🎬The Last Viking

After serving fourteen years for robbery, Anker is released from prison and reunites with his mentally ill brother Manfred, who alone knows where the stolen money is hidden but has forgotten its location, sending them on a journey to recover the loot and confront who they are.

✍"Few directors would be able to juggle genres and navigate shifts in tone as fluidly as Jensen does here. On paper none of it should work... but this unlikely film is consistently entertaining, weird and ultimately touching." - The Hollywood Reporter

🎬GAZELLE — Set in the liminal spaces of immigrant New York, Gazelle traces the inner and outer journey of Yakup, a Turkish music teacher exiled by political turmoil. As he fights to bring his family from Turkey, his days dissolve into a blur of menial jobs, shifting allegiances, and gnawing solitude. Between the labyrinth of U.S. immigration law and the peril of illicit escape, his reality becomes a fragile negotiation between hope and despair. A psychological drama of longing, resilience, and fractured identity.

🗣Virtual Guest Speaker — Nadir Sarıbacak (Writer & Director) is an acclaimed Turkish actor and filmmaker based in New Jersey. His career spans landmark works in Turkish cinema and television, including Winter Sleep (Palme d’Or, Cannes 2014), Ivy (Sundance 2015), Magnificent Century: Kösem, and Leylak (Special Jury Mention, Tribeca 2021). His performances have earned multiple Best Actor honors, from the Antalya Golden Orange Film Festival to the Istanbul Film Festival.
