Cristian Mungiu’s latest drama, #Fjord, is a biting acknowledgment that political and religious differences may interfere with the development of true friendships.
The film premiered at the 2026 #CannesFilmFestival, and has taken home the Palme d'Or.

Shakespeare's King Lear is a study of power and weakness, both personal and political.
Acclaimed Shakespeare commentator Mark Oakley will guide us through the plays many twists and turns to see how its timeless truths might speak to modern audiences.
"When we are born, we cry
that we are come
To this great stage of fools."
- King Lear - Act 4, scene 6
