"The memory of an unreachable woman has haunted many male artists: Goethe with Lotte, Poe with Annabel Lee, Dante with Beatrice, Petrarch with Laura - all succumbed to the spell of a female image and dedicated a good part of their work to conjuring it obsessively. Spanish film-maker José Luis Gueríns latest work IN THE CITY OF SYLVIA makes play with this long tradition in a skilfully orchestrated ode to longing, woman and the city, but above all to the art of looking and cinema itself." SIGHT AND SOUND "a profoundly imaginative, ironically witty and illuminating film... a subtle, seductive beauty." TIME OUT In Competition at Venice Film Festival and Official Selection at Edinburgh Film Festival, featuring standout performances by Xavier Lafitte and Pilar López de Ayala. Available now on DVD.

The British government orders schools and non-essential shops in Leicester, central England, to close and urges people to stay at home after a localised outbreak of coronavirus. Health Secretary Matt Hancock says nationwide moves to ease a three-month lockdown will no longer apply in the city due to high rates of COVID-19, telling parliament: " The more people follow the rules, the faster we'll get control of this virus and get Leicester back to normal."
