The Focus
Streaming site MUBI launched its Library last week. The site specialises in collections of independent and international cinema. MUBI functions on a 30-day rotation – every film is available for 30 days before it’s replaced by another.
However, MUBI has now opened access to its archives for all subscribers so there are hundreds of films at your fingertips.
Not sure where to start? Here are our top picks of what to watch first.
Portrait Of A Lady On Fire (2019)
Still showing in cinemas when lock-down hit, Céline Sciamma’s fourth feature arrived on the small screen riding a wave of five-star reviews and numerous award nominations.
Portrait Of A Lady On Fire is a film that lives up to its hype. It’s a poignant, understated love story set in the 18th century against the breathtaking coastal scenery of Brittany.
