Generation Wealth (Country: US; Year: 2018; Director: Lauren Greenfield; Stars: Florian Homm)
A portrait of a materialistic, image-obsessed culture. Simultaneously personal journey and historical essay, the film bears witness to the global boom–bust economy, the corrupted American Dream and the human costs of late stage capitalism, narcissism and greed.
Matangi/Maya/M.I.A. (Country: US, UK; Year: 2018; Director: Stephen Loveridge; Stars: M.I.A.)
Drawn from a never before seen cache of personal footage spanning decades, this is an intimate portrait of the Sri Lankan artist and musician who continues to shatter conventions.

Studio 54 (Country: US; Year: 2018; Director: Matt Tyrnauer)
Studio 54 was the pulsating epicentre of 1970s hedonism: a disco hothouse of beautiful people, drugs, and sex. The journeys of Ian Schrager and Steve Rubell - two best friends from Brooklyn who conquered New York City - frame this history of the "greatest club of all time".
Timeless Beauty (Country: China, France; Year: 2018; Director: Deyan Parouchev; Writer: Marianne Rosenzweig; Stars: Xiaoqing Liu, Colleen Heidemann, Tess Holliday, Alex Bruni, Stefanie Lange, Daphne Selfe, Mady Malroux, Jan de Villeneuve, Philippe Dumas, Monette Malroux, Rebecca Valentine, Yazemeenah Rossi, Xiaoqing Liu, Colleen Heidemann, Tess Holliday)
This documentary captures the beauty of being different.

Tiny Shoulders: Rethinking Barbie and Generation Wealth
Tiny Shoulders: Rethinking Barbie (Country: US; Year: 2018; Director: Andrea Blaugrund Nevins; Writer: Andrea Blaugrund Nevins; Stars: Gloria Steinem, Gloria Steinem)

United Skates (Country: US; Year: 2018; Director: Tina Brown, Dyana Winkler; Writer: Dyana Winkler)
