FANS of arthouse movies rejoice – FilmClub is back at the Tatham Art Gallery in Chief Albert Luthuli Street, Pietermaritzburg, for a new season, starting at 7 pm on Tuesday, February 2.

The Last Mistress, directed Catherine Breillat (France, 2007) kicks off a special focus on women directors. It is a slightly a-typical film from Breillat – a sumptuous period drama which chronicles the intense love affair between a young libertine and an outrageously unconventional, sexually assertive woman some years his senior – the latter played with ferocious sensuality by Asia Argento.
