Zodiac Film Club presents Sofia Bohdanowicz's Maison du Bonheur, a documentary portrait of the day-to-day life of a 77 year old Parisian astrologer. Accompanying the film are three astrologically-titled shorts that take horoscopes as their point of inspiration. From Kenneth Anger's occultism-informed work to a new generation of filmmakers who know their sun, moon and rising – the programme explores the tradition of astromancy on screen.
