GFF 2023: Sanctuary and War Pony (w/ Iana Murray and Rory Doherty)

Glasgow Film Festival is nearing its close, so we've asked two of our favourite critics, Iana Murray and Rory Doherty, to join us to share their favourite films of the festival.

We also review Sanctuary, a kinky chamber piece starring Christopher Abbott as a hotel heir who’s become reliant on regular bouts of humiliation, and Margaret Qualley as the dominatrix who clearly relishes making her client feel like a worm.

We also react to this year's Surprise Movie, which turned out to be War Pony, the debut feature from Gina Gammell and actor Riley Keough following parallel stories about two young Native Americans who live on the Pine Ridge reservation in South Dakota.

Glasgow Film Festival runs 1-12 March, get full details and tickets at glasgowfilm.org
