"He's in there every night with his damn... gang, selling that stupid cocaine" Miami. 1987. The streets are overrun with a gang of motorbike-riding, cocaine-slinging ninjas. It's up to Dragon Sound, a guitar-synth-pop-rock band of taekwondo orphans, to keep Vice City safe. Following its limited initial release in Greater Orlando and West Germany, Leith Kino is bringing Miami Connection to the Central Belt for a celebration of 'so-bad-it's-good' cinema. It's 84 minutes of 1980s action as told through the lens of writer-director and star Y.K. Kim, a taekwondo instructor with no previous (or later) filmmaking experience. Since its rediscovery in 2009, Miami Connection's reputation on the cult cinema circuit has been growing, with Oscar-winning director Sean Baker (Anora, The Florida Project) considering it among his top 4 films of all time. So trim your mullets, don your tank tops, and get down to Leith Depot for a film that celebrates neon-lit taekwondo action, electric guitars, and most important of all, the power of friendship. Leith Kino Access Information - English subtitles will be onscreen for every screening, including descriptive captions where possible. - The screening room is on ground level and is wheelchair accessible from the Leith Depot bar with flexible seating to accomodate specific requirements. - There are accessible toilets in both the screening room and the bar.

Angry Annie tells the story of Annie (Laure Calamy), a working mother of two, who accidentally becomes pregnant in 1974 and joins the MLAC (Mouvement pour la liberté de l’avortement et de la contraception), an organisation created in 1973 in France and whose goal was to make contraception and abortion legal and safe.

Today in Canada, can a Francophone still call themselves “French Canadian”? Actor and host Pascal Justin Boyer, born in Quebec and raised in Ontario, sets out across the country to find an answer. Feeling caught between labels like Québécois, Franco-Ontarian, and French Canadian, he wonders whether this identity is fading or simply transforming. In The Last French Canadian, Boyer travels from the Yukon to the Prairies, Quebec, and Acadia, meeting Francophones with wildly different relationships to language and belonging. A York University professor tells him that the term “French Canadian” is outdated and tied to colonial history. Yet “Québécois” doesn’t fit Boyer either, since he has spent most of his life outside Quebec. Even “Franco-Ontarian,” his parents’ chosen identity, feels too narrow, leaving out the cultural ties he still feels to his home province. The documentary mirrors the quick tempo of Boyer’s mother tongue, mixing humour, archival footage, and candid conversations. The film ultimately explores whether preserving the idea of being “French Canadian” risks stripping the label of its “Canadian” part altogether, leaving Boyer to ask what exactly he hopes to defend. The film will be followed by a Q&A with director Pascal Justin Boyer and co-creator/producer Isabelle Corriveau.

Olga Chajdas at The Pyramid at Anderston event tickets from TicketSource Borscht Film Club is opening March with a film that pulses with raw energy, tenderness, and rebellion — IMAGO, the acclaimed feature by Olga Chajdas. Following its world premiere in the PROXIMA competition at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival, where it received an enthusiastic response from audiences and critics alike, the film went on to screen in the main competition at the mBank New Horizons Festival, dedicated to bold, boundary‑pushing cinema. IMAGO also received recognition at the Gdynia Polish Film Festival, where it was praised for its artistic courage, emotional depth, and powerful performances — continuing the strong festival legacy of Chajdas’ debut Nina, which won multiple awards in Gdynia. Set on the Polish coast in the late 1980s — in the very place where the Solidarity movement was born — IMAGO dives into the post‑punk counterculture of the Tricity: a world of artistic ferment, underground music, and a generation searching for freedom as the old system collapses. At its centre is Ela — magnetic, unpredictable, painfully human. A young woman who refuses to fit into any mould, drifting between art, desire, chaos, and the expectations imposed on her. Lena Góra — who also co‑wrote the script — delivers a remarkable performance inspired by the life of her own mother, a singer of the legendary Tricity alternative scene. Critics praised the film’s emotional intensity, its “grainy intimacy”, and its hypnotic soundtrack by Andrzej Smolik, one of Poland’s most influential composers and multi‑instrumentalists, known for his work with Hey, Myslovitz, Maria Peszek and many more. IMAGO is a story about otherness, motherhood, rebellion, and the complicated love between a mother and a daughter. It’s also a portrait of a moment in history when everything was breaking apart — and something new was beginning. This screening is part of the Polish Adventurers Club in Glasgow, which invites you to its fourth edition — this time celebrating International Women’s Day. 18:30 — IMAGO screening + live online Q&A with director Olga Chajdas Pyramid at Anderston 7 March, 18:30 PWYC (Pay What You Can) Film 18+

This International Women’s Day, we’re heading to Sonnethal, where socialism meets the offside rule in Nicht schummeln, Liebling (No Cheating, Darling, 1973). When the town’s mayor funnels precious funds into the men’s football team in a bid for regional glory (and personal prestige), new vocational school director Barbara Schwalbe decides to fight patriarchy the GDR way: by founding a girls’ team that plays better, wins harder and drives a very hard bargain for equal space, funding and respect. Starring East German pop royalty Chris Doerk and Frank Schöbel, this candy-coloured DEFA musical turns state-sanctioned gender roles into a toe-tapping showdown with sly lyrics, miniskirts, umbrella choreography tipping its hat to Singin' in the Rain, and a gloriously oily garage sequence that feels like a socialist precursor to Grease. A battle of the sexes played out on the pitch, in song and - ultimately - on the girls’ terms. With an introduction by Camilla Baier. - German with English subtitles. - The screening room is on ground level and is wheelchair accessible from the Leith Depot bar with flexible seating to accommodate specific requirements. - There are accessible toilets in both the screening room and the bar.

La Vie est belle is a 1987 musical comedy directed by Mwezé Ngangura and Benoît Lamy. The film revolves around the vibrant music scene of Kinshasa and tells the rags-to-riches story of a poor rural musician played by legendary Congolese musician, Papa Wemba, the “King of Rumba Rock”, who seeks fame in the big city. The film was considered a major turning point in film production in the DRC with its more artistic approach. Unlike many African films of the time that concerned themselves with the effects of colonialism, La vie est belle celebrates Congolese culture, music and the lives of Kinshasans. The film score features Congolese music from artists Tshala Muana, Klody, and Zaiko Langa Langa, a Congolese soukous band co-founded by Papa Wemba.
