A RABBIT'S FOOT is the only classic, independent film journal on the English-language market. Unlike mainstream film magazines which are defined by a cyclical nature, the stories in A RABBIT'S FOOT are timeless. Printed quarterly and arranged around a unique motif (from French cinema to Political film), our publication offers an insider's look into the world cinema and visual arts through an ever changing portal. Featuring intimate, conversational interviews from the likes of Wes Anderson, Ken Loach, Alfonso Cuaron, Gaspar Noe, Nadine Labaki, Paolo Sorrentino, Darren Aronofsky, Alice Diop, Marion Cotillard, Oliver Stone, Ai Weiwei, Isabel Sandoval, Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, Ethan Coen, Celine Song and many more, alongside rare archival photography—we feel that A RABBIT'S FOOT offers valuable, inspiring insight for any student or industry worker interested in the art of moving image.

Latest Issue:

Issue 13 is a celebration of TOMORROW in film, art, and culture, with an exclusive, highly-collectible cover featuring superstar Charli xcx—an embodiment of the artists shaping the future of the arts. The shoot itself celebrates Charli’s transition into cinema, placing her in the context of legendary screen sirens Monica Vitti and Jeanne Moreau. 
 
As well as an intimate interview, where Charli discusses her film career—for the first time, she also publishes her own exclusive essay titled Death of the Cool. Here, Charli opens up about the thin line between commercial and cool in a genuinely sincere body of writing that features anecdotes on her hit album BRAT. 
 
This specially curated edition covers the many forms of TOMORROW with profiles, essays, and exquisite unseen original photography. There are in-depth conversations with master filmmakers Park Chan-wook, Guillermo del Toro, and Mira Nair. We also catch up with Joachim Trier (director of Sentimental Value), his actors Renate Reinsve and Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas, and meet rising star Akinola Davies Jr. We visit Yorgos Lanthimos collaborator Jerskin Fendrix at his Shrewsbury home and get to know Eva Victor—director of the critically-acclaimed Sorry, Baby. Painter Vanessa Garwood hosts us at her studio while Faye Wei Wei introduces readers to the next generation of artists worth knowing. 
 
There are the well-researched and colourful long reads that A Rabbit's Foot is known for, looking at Tomorrow through the lens of futurism. One long-read, deeply researched story observes the roots of the Italian futurists and their controversial pasts, as well as an essay on how cinema has always been able to predict the future (starting with Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey). We dissect the importance of Ayn Rand, look into the future of classical music and get five author-approved pointers on the literature of tomorrow. 
 
All of this comes together in a meticulously designed journal. 
 
Following the success of our previous editions, Issue 13 of A Rabbit’s Foot is once again designed with a unique and collectible foil cover in bronze, that contrasts with the elegant cover photography, and will appear stylish on any coffee table or bookshelf.
