The conversations will allow audiences to get an in-depth behind-the-scenes look at some of this year’s most talked about films, offering insights into the craft of filmmaking from very best in the industry, including experts who worked on After Love, Passing, Boiling Point, Belfast, Cruella, Dune, House of Gucci, West Side Story, CODA and The Power of the Dog.
Public tickets are available for the sessions, which this year includes online Q&As, in-person events and some sessions which are a hybrid of both.
