The mystery of other people’s lives, the unbridgeable gulf between us all – even, or especially, between married couples – is the subject of this outstanding drama from first-time film-maker Aleem Khan. Read full review

After Love is a technically proficient, sincere exploration of its thorny, complicated themes and gripping realist drama of the highest order. Read full review

The film’s structure may be conventional, and yet its story is unusually rich, and uninterested in easy answers as to why people hurt the ones they love. Read full review
