Adapted from the acclaimed novel by iconic author Irvine Welsh (Trainspotting, The Acid Boys, Skagboys), FILTH revels in Bruce Robertson, one of the most corrupt and misanthropic coppers in modern British fiction. His tale unfolds as a dark, disturbing and very funny journey through sleaze, power, and the abuse of absolutely everything.
A bipolar, bigoted, junkie cop manipulates and hallucinates his way through the festive period, until he finally meets his match… himself. Scheming Bruce Robertson (James McAvoy in a standout performance), a bigoted and corrupt policeman, is in line for a promotion and will stop at nothing to get what he wants. Enlisted to solve a brutal murder and threatened by the aspirations of his colleagues, Bruce sets about ensuring their ruin.As he turns his colleagues against one another by stealing their wives and exposing their secrets, Bruce starts to lose himself in a web of deceit that he can no longer control. His past is slowly catching up with him; a crippling drug habit and suspicious colleagues start to take their toll on his sanity. The question is: can he keep his grip on reality long enough to disentangle himself from the filth?

Acclaimed Director Kim Ki-duk (The Isle) demonstrated again in SPRING, SUMMER, FALL, WINTER … AND SPRING his exceptional talent for relating emotionally complex stories with images of otherworldly beauty.
No one is immune to the power of the seasons and their yearly cycle of birth, growth and decay. Not even the two monks who share a hermitage floating on a pond that is surrounded by mountains. As the seasons unfold, every aspect of their lives is infused with an intensity that leads both to greater spirituality – and tragedy. Under the watchful eyes of the Old Monk, a Young Monk experiences the loss of innocence when play turns to cruelty, the awakening of love when a woman enters their closed world, the murderous power of jealousy and obsession, the price of redemption, and the enlightenment of experience.

Many years following the apocalypse, a devout cult of mute zealots hunts down a young woman, Azrael (Scream Queen Samara Weaving Ready or Not, The Babysitter, Scream 6), who has escaped her imprisonment. Recaptured by its ruthless leaders, Azrael is to be sacrificed to pacify an ancient evil that resides deep within the surrounding wilderness – yet she will stop at nothing to ensure her own survival. In what follows, Azrael makes a savage bid for freedom as her escape accelerates towards a vicious, revenge-fueled showdown. From the seeds of this gritty, relentless parable of sacrifice and salvation, comes an immersive, real-time, action horror tale from the visionary minds of Writer Simon Barrett (You're Next) and Director E.L. Katz (Cheap Thrills).
