‘Unconventional cinematic adventures’
A film magazine that explores crucial elements of cinema often marginalised or overlooked, using an eclectic mix of commissioned illustration to bring them to life. Originally more focussed on the illustrations, the writing now matches them in quality.
This is the Winning and Losing Issue, covering ‘winners and losers from across the cinematic spectrum.’ Includes the movies ‘Casino Royale’, ‘The Zone of Interest’, ‘Scarface’, ‘The Candidate’, ‘Beau Travail’, ‘Rocky’, and more, with illustrations by Olivier Hiliegers, Lynda Nguyen Tran, Vanya Botvvinky, Bianca Buoncristiani and Nadia Schlosser among others.
