BIRDEATER

Engaged couple Louie and Irene share a private, deeply intertwined life. As we observe their oddly codependent routine, we also gather they are in the process of organising a wedding. Louie, it seems, is the more decisive of the two, whilst Irene could be classified as a happy spectator. From our distance, they appear to be a happy couple, but when Irene first expresses a building anxiety about their rapidly approaching marriage, and perhaps their relationship as a whole, Louie moves quickly to find a solution. After some time to process, Louie proposes that Irene attend his buck’s party as his fiance, an opportunity for them to clear their minds. Irene hesitates at Louie’s oddly insistent tone, but ultimately agrees. Maybe they do need this. Presented by its director on Sunday 23.

MY SEXTORTION DIARY

A young filmmaker’s laptop is stolen. Two months later, an anonymous hacker threatens to reveal the woman’s sexually suggestive photos to all her work contacts if she doesn’t pay thousands of dollars. Panicked, Pati reaches out to the Spanish authorities for assistance, only to discover the police and courts are completely powerless to protect her. Told through text messages, emails and self-recorded videos, My Sextortion Diary documents a chilling and nightmarish scenario that has become increasingly commonplace online. As Pati’s hacker begins leaking her private photos, she decides to take the law into her own hands. With remarkable honesty and humour, Pati reaches beyond her initial feelings of helplessness to tell a powerful story about bodily autonomy and dignity. Part thriller, part mystery, this is a compelling first-hand look into the threat of online blackmail and what it takes to fight back. Presented by its director on Saturday 22.
