From Alice Rohrwacher (Happy as Lazzaro), a tale of lost love and an ethereal spiritual journey. Arriving in Riparbella, Tuscany, in the early ’80s, Arthur, a melancholic British archaeologist in a grimy linen suit, is fresh out of prison. Yearning for his dead lover, the daughter of a local aristocrat, he falls back in with a group of tombaroli (tomb robbers), a rowdy, Fellini-esque crew of twentysomethings who pilfer the area’s ancient burial sites for Etruscan treasures to sell on the black market.

Loosely based on the novel by Martin Amis, this bold, surgical probe into our capacity for zoning out on genocide is chilling indeed. Rudolf, Hedwig and their children live a pastoral idyll, in a bright villa with a cultivated garden full of roses and hothouse fruit. But the backdrop is a high wall with chimneys beyond, and behind the birdsong are other persistent but indistinguishable sounds. Rudolf Höss is the commandant of Auschwitz. Eschewing the conventions of Holocaust drama, Jonathan Glazer’s (Under the Skin) film penetrates the too bright surface of bourgeois domesticity with visual and aural precision to reveal the horrors beneath.

Andrew Haigh follows 45 Years with a sublime, uncommonly perceptive and moving film.

Adam (Fleabag’s Andrew Scott), a screenwriter living in a spookily empty London high rise, strikes up a relationship with his mysterious neighbour Harry (Mescal). At the same time, he makes a miraculous discovery at his old family home in the suburbs – one that keeps him returning. Using a metaphysical conceit to meditate on love, grief and profound loss, Haigh’s carefully modulated ghost story revisits the fears and traumas of a specific generation of gay men while illuminating the human condition more broadly.

Wry, endearing, thoughtful, this tale of a late-blooming heroine awakened by intimations of romance and mortality is utterly refreshing. 48-year-old Etero, single by choice, lives in a small Georgian village where she runs a toiletry store. Commanding and intelligent, possessed of a stoic independence and a dry wit, she cherishes her freedom as much as the mille-feuille she repeat-orders at her local café. But when a passionate encounter brings a new recklessness into her life, she must decide whether to pursue love or continue alone. Adapted from a first-person novel by Georgian author Tamta Melashvili, funny and sad by turns, Eka Chavleishvili is magnificent as the redoubtable Etero.

Outwardly simple, beautifully nuanced and utterly heartbreaking, Ozu’s Tokyo Story remains, even after 70 years, one of cinema’s most enduring masterpieces. Elderly couple Tomi and Shukichi decide to visit their grown-up children in bustling post-war Tokyo. The experience is bewildering; it’s a sweltering summer and they do not receive the welcome they deserve from their own offspring. A wealth of domestic detail reveals a compelling contrast between the dignity of age and the insensitivity of a younger generation. Stylised and restrained though it is, this is a film that manages to evoke exactly how fragile and ephemeral life is.
