ENCORE! © FRANCE 24

Director Alex Garland’s latest film burrows into the dark heart of toxic masculinity, with female protagonist Harper leading the way. Jessie Buckley plays the leading role. She sat down with Eve Jackson to talk about using the challenging roles she is offered to rethink the societal paradigms that we're encouraged to accept.

We also check out another neo-horror from Argentinian director Agustina San Martin. "To Kill the Beast" takes viewers on a dark and disquieting journey into the jungle as a young woman is haunted by a mysterious presence in the shadows.

And a photography exhibition in Brittany offers many different "Visions of the East", as female photographers in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iran bring us their unique perspectives on those landscapes.
