Acclaimed Portugese filmmaker Pedro Costa's work is marked by extraordinary intimacy and trancelike stillness. His films present the lives of Lisbon's disenfranchised migrants with unflinching honesty and dignity. This first UK retrospective of Costa’s risk-taking, beautiful work includes his new film, Ne Change Rien, as well as four programs of films that have inspired him, including work by Jean Eustache, Jean-Luc Godard, Jean-Pierre Gorin, Jean-Marie Straub & Danièle Huillet, and Andy Warhol.
