Second of two Pakistani movies screening at Red Sea competition section this year (the other being “Wakhri”), “In Flames” also deals with the issues women face in the country nowadays, implementing, however, an approach that moves towards the supernatural on occasion.
In Flames is screening at Red Sea Film Festival
Mariam is a medical student living with her mother Fariha and younger brother in a tiny Karachi flat owned by her grandfather, following her father's death. When the grandfather dies, leaving a mountain of debt, an uncle steps in offering to cover them. Mariam is suspicious of his motifs, but her mother won't hear anything about it, insisting that the uncle only wants to help. In the meantime, and after an attack on her car while she was driving, she meets Asad, a fellow student, who was introduced to her by a friend. The two, and after his intense courting,...

As IndieWire has published its great camera survey regarding Cannes Film Festival 2023, we analyzed the data to reveal that the Arri Alexa Mini is still the king of kings. This is the 4th year in a row that this camera dominates the Cannes list. Also, there’s a respectful presence of good and old film cameras. Explore the list below.
Cannes Film Festival 2023 – Camera Manufacturers Chart The cinematography of the leading film festivals
Just saying — and without noticing, we wrote a title very similar to last year’s Cannes 2022 (“The Cameras Behind Cannes 2022: Alexa Mini (Still) Dominates”). This shows that filmmakers love the Arri Mini so much…but we’ll elaborate on this later. We have been waiting for IndieWire to complete its survey regarding the cameras that shot Cannes 2023’s feature films. Each year, IndieWire sends a questionnaire to main festivals’ filmmakers (directors and cinematographers) in order to...

Strange how it can feel like not a lot happens in a film that features unwanted teen pregnancy, spousal abandonment, mounting debt, a heart attack, a fistfight and a police chase that ends in a car crash. Even stranger that in the case of Aizhana Kassymbek’s “Fire,” the impression of uneventfulness in a story packed with incident is almost entirely a positive thing: Kassymbek’s light, wry touch and her profound affection for the flawed decency of her characters siphon the gloom from what easily could have been a grim, gray social realist Book of Job, leaving behind instead a droll dramedy with a surprisingly tender and even emotional keel.
Bad things have a nasty habit of happening to good people, but cheerfully long-faced family man Tolik (Tulepbergen Baissakalov) is about to get more than his fair share. Pootling down the highway in his little van, delivering bread to small suburban neighborhood stores,...
