Kumu's new cultural documentary season kicks off on September 3 with a movie all about cheese. A total of 10 films will be screened free of charge at Kumu between September 3 and November 5.
Kumu's 2025 fall cultural documentary film series begins with "Shelf Life" by American filmmaker Ian Chene. In the movie, Cheney embarks on a journey into the colorful world of cheese.

The series continues on September 10, with "Mutantes: Punk Porn Feminism" by French feminist writer and filmmaker Virginie Despentes. The movie explores the mystified world of sex work, pornography, and BDSM.
The fall season ends on November 5 with Australian director Justin Kurzel's "Ellis Park," which shows how renowned musician Nick Cave's bandmate Warren Ellis establishes a sanctuary on the island of Sumatra, where animals that have fallen victim to smuggling or abuse find a new home.
