‘Double Take’ is a curated cinema program exploring the eerie, fascinating world of doubles, impostors and fractured identity on screen. Drawing together international films—from psychological thrillers to surreal dramas and horror—the program examines how identity can be mirrored, duplicated and distorted.
Expect a mix of rare archival prints and newly restored works, diving into themes of obsession, paranoia and the uncanny. The program reflects on how cinema has long been captivated by the idea that the self is not always singular.
Curated by Robert Hughes, the program is supported by major international film archives including the National Film and Sound Archive of Australia and the British Film Institute.
