Archival Presentations: Watch Films Like it’s 1999

This year, SLIFF takes audiences back to what many critics hail as one of the greatest years in cinema with its “Watch Films Like It’s 1999” archival focus. Celebrating films that have stood the test of time, this retrospective features The Iron Giant, a beloved animated classic that continues to resonate with viewers of all ages, and All About My Mother, Pedro Almodóvar’s emotionally rich exploration of identity, loss, and resilience, which solidified his place as a master of modern cinema. These films represent the artistic innovation and storytelling brilliance that made 1999 a banner year in film history, inviting audiences to experience—or re-experience—some of the finest cinematic achievements of the era.
