What’s New on Kino Film Collection in November 2026
Filipiñana
Five titles land on Kino Film Collection this November, spanning surrealist classics, cult oddities, and sharp modern comedy. Guy Maddin’s alpine melodrama Careful opens the month, while reality and performance blur in the thought-provoking documentary Re-Creation. For something lighter, Quentin Dupieux’s The Second Act delivers a gloriously absurd French ensemble comedy about the chaos of filmmaking.

Careful
Guy Maddin | Comedy Drama | 1992
Guy Maddin’s early masterpiece takes place in an Alpine village where the wary residents —adult, child and animal!—must speak softly and tread lightly lest they cause an avalanche. But sexual frenzies teem in this world of repression, setting off love triangles and quadrangles with deadly consequences. Bathed in lurid, luminescent tints, “Careful” resembles a vintage melodrama from another planet.

Directed by Jim Sheridan and David Merriman, this gripping drama imagines Ian Bailey standing trial in Ireland for the 1996 murder of French filmmaker Sophie Toscan du Plantier.
