Film Festival 2025

Many may not have heard of British artist Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, but filmmaker Mark Cousins’ personal, provocative testament to this remarkable woman raises the question of why she isn’t a household name. In a rare feat for a documentary, this poetic portrait took the top prize at the 2024 Karlovy Vary Film Festival.
