How do you direct a Palme d’Or-winning film…from behind bars? Our new season about dissident filmmakers kicks off with the tale of Yilmaz Güney—one of Turkish cinema’s most revered and controversial directors—from his days as a tough-guy movie star nicknamed “The Ugly King,” to his years as a left-wing activist, to his 19-year prison sentence…during which he somehow managed to make his masterpiece, YOL. Featuring Oscar-winner and YOL megafan Alejandro G. Iñárritu (DIGGER) and German-Turkish auteur Fatih Akin (HEAD-ON).
The MUBI Podcast returns for its 12th season, “Under Pressure.” At a time when artists worldwide are being threatened or stifled by their governments, host Rico Gagliano tells the stories of filmmakers from across history and around the world who have made movies in spite of incredible state pressure to compromise, give in, or give up. From 1970s Turkey to modern-day America, these are alternately wild, sobering, controversial, and inspiring tales of art by any means necessary.
AMORES PERROS and TIME TO LOVE are now streaming on MUBI worldwide.
SOUL KITCHEN is now streaming on MUBI in the US, Canada, the UK, Ireland, Australia, Turkey, Spain, Germany, Latin America, Netherlands.

Shownotes
In the '90s, there was no music video director in hip-hop bigger than Hype Williams. And he concentrated all his visual powers on his first (and for now, only) feature film, BELLY (1998): a gangster film that looked—and sounded—like no other, especially its iconic opening heist sequence, set to Soul II Soul's "Back to Life." Rico talks with Soul's songsmith Simon Law about the '80s UK club scene that birthed that megahit track and learns why this once-maligned movie has become required viewing for hip-hop nation. Other guests include the film's co-story writer Anthony Bodden and hip-hop critic Panama Jackson.

Featuring Cranberries guitarist Noel Hogan, Hong Kong-born indiepop star Emma-Lee Moss (aka Emmy The Great), "Chungking" score co-composer Roel A. Garcia, and NPR critic-at large John Powers—the author, with Wong Kar Wai, of "WKW: The Cinema of Wong Kar Wai."
