French writer-director Mia Hansen-Løve on her English language debut Bergman Island, a film that engages with the legacy of Ingmar Bergman as a couple retreat to the pristine Swedish island of Fårö where the filmmaker shot some of his most famous films, looking to find inspiration, and, British director Joanna Hogg on the sequel to The Souvenir, her lauded 2021 film. The Souvenir II continues to follow an ambitious film student in 1980's Britain, this time in the aftermath of the turbulent relationship at the centre of the first film, with a magnetic and manipulative older man.
