With Antonia Quirke In November 2019, far right protesters tried to stop the premiere of Georgia's first LGBTQ film And Then We Danced. They fought with riot police and attacked cinema-goers in Tiblisi. As the film is released in this country, its star Levan Gelbakhiani talks about what it was like to be in the eye of the storm and why the cast and crew needed bodyguards during the making of the movie. Directors Kleber Mendonca Filho and Juliano Dornelles discuss their modern day western Bacurau, in which the inhabitants of a remote Brazilian village are hunted by wealthy tourists for sport. In the latest episode of Pitch Battle, critic Pamela Hutchinson pitches a remake of a forgotten 30's comedy that has something to say about today's gender politics. Industry insiders Lizzie Francke, Rowan Woods and Clare Binns decide whether or not to give the project the all important green light.
