Joachim Trier‘s follow-up to his modern classic The Worst Person in the World reunites him with Renate Reinsve, this time playing Actress Nora Borg, who struggles to communicate with her Filmmaker father, Gustav (Stellan Skarsgård). He’s written a part for her in his long-awaited next film that has the potential to confront their shared, familial trauma. The only problem–Reinsve refuses to work with him, so Hollywood Actor Rachel Kemp (Elle Fanning) takes on the role in her place.

The world of Sentimental Value–full of imagined movies, stage productions, festivals, social media accounts–is gorgeously-rendered, and feels like a living, breathing place. Trier does a great job blurring the line between reality and in-world fiction with some notable fakeouts I wouldn’t dare spoil.

There’s been talk of Oscar nominations for Skarsgård and Reinsve. Both performances are engrossing, complex and deeply felt. It’s a solid bet they could rise to such acclaim. The real star of Sentimental Value, however, is its paradoxical exploration of art and artists—How Theatre and Film can create a safe environment for profound and needed personal expression, and simultaneously serve as a toxic barrier, preventing that same expression outside the confines of imagined circumstances. If Art represents the only available platform for tackling spiritual baggage, does that also make it a cage?

Some of the dialogue can feel like a placeholder–particularly in regards to the Elle Fanning thread, and the relationship between Reinsve and a stage manager. The Movie can also be guilty of playing into the Tortured Artist trope—lightly implying that real-life agony makes for better Art. Ultimately, Sentimental Value digs deeper than that, and I’ll be pondering many of its beautiful ambiguities long after TIFF is over.

Sentimental Value screens at TIFF ’25:

Thurs. Sept 4 at 9:30 PM at VISA Screening Room at the Princess of Wales Theatre

Fri. Sept 5 at 6:00 PM at Scotiabank Theatre Toronto

Nikon Canada Inc. is pleased to announce the release of a new silver edition of the full-frame/FX-format Nikon Z f mirrorless camera. The Nikon Z f combines a timeless design inspired by an iconic Nikon film camera with the superior performance of a full-frame mirrorless camera.

Three new Premium Exterior¹ colour options will also be available, providing more choices for users to customize the colour of their Z f camera body¹. Additionally, the Z f will support a new Film Grain feature that adds grain to photos and videos, further expanding creative possibilities.

Designed to resemble the silver plating on film-era cameras like the Nikon F, the metallic texture creates an authentic feel suited to the premium, full-frame retro design. Three new Premium Exterior colour options have been added: Cognac Brown, Teal Blue, and Mauve Pink – all with an embossed texture. These are subtle, yet elegant tones that complement the silver body, providing more options for customizing the exterior of the camera than ever before. In addition to the three colours, Moss Green, Stone Gray, Sepia Brown are available – allowing for six colour variations in total. Additionally, the sophisticated design will help inspire users every time they pick up the camera.

A Film Grain Feature for Film-Like Expression

A future firmware update for the Nikon Z f will offer the new Film Grain feature, which adds grain to photos and videos. Users will be able to achieve more creative imaging expression in accordance with the scene and their intent by adjusting grain size (three options) and strength (six options). By combining this feature with Imaging Recipes (downloadable imaging presets created by Nikon and creators) and Picture Controls, users will enjoy film-like expression tailored to their personal and creative style. This update is scheduled for release within 2025.

Price and Availability

The new Nikon Z f Silver Edition will be available in late September for a Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $2,699.95*, or $2,829.95* for the new premium exterior options.

Cue the harmonies and grab the boyz because Booking.com, one of the world’s leading digital travel companies, is inviting fans to unwind in harmony with Boyz II Zen: A Wellness Escape by Boyz II Men. This unforgettable getaway, set in a luxury oceanfront vacation home in the Florida Keys and curated by the Grammy Award-winning R&B group themselves, hits every high note. It offers one lucky fan and up to five of their boyz (or girls!) a chance to relax, recharge and reconnect through soulful wellness experiences, including a private meet and greet and unplugged acapella performance by Boyz II Men themselves that will make it so hard to say goodbye when it’s time to check out. 

Grounded in Booking.com’s 2025 Travel Prediction “Boyz II Zen”, the escape taps into a growing demand for travel that supports mental well-being and personal growth, especially among men. Today’s male travellers are increasingly swapping traditional ‘bro culture’ clichés for self-care, with 30% of Canadian male travellers seeking to rest and rejuvenate, 26% chasing mental health benefits, 24% wanting to unplug from everyday stress, and 23% focusing on personal growth. And with 61% of Canadian Gen Z men planning wellness-centered escapes this year, it’s clear that R&B and R&R might just be the perfect combo.

Boyz II Zen: A Wellness Escape includes a four-night itinerary crafted with care by Boyz II Men themselves — a celebration of calm, connection, and that unmistakable slow-jam spirit:

-Guests will enjoy a private meet & greet with Boyz II Men themselves, featuring an intimate a cappella performance over cocktails. It’s the ultimate R&B daydream: live, personal, and perfectly in tune.

-A beachside BBQ prepared by a local gourmet chef pairs with ocean breezes, paddle boating, and laid-back vibes that promise a full-body experience of relaxation.

-A golf day at a nearby course provides the perfect opportunity to find zen on the green. Tee off with friends and enjoy a laid-back round where the focus is on camaraderie, fresh air, and relaxing the mind.

-A smooth-sailing boat day with pick-up right from the private dock offers slow jams, sea breezes, and good vibes,  because when spending time with one’s crew like this, nothing else matters.

-The stay begins with a Boyz II Brunch featuring comfort classics and soulful dishes that would make any mama proud, all accompanied by a playlist of pure gold.

-Melodic massages and scalp treatments designed to melt away any end of the road tension, leaving guests feeling refreshed and renewed.

-Meditation and yoga sessions set to the soothing sounds of Boyz II Men’s greatest hits encourage stretching and spiritual connection.

-A Zen & the Art of R+B sound bath and breathwork session brings mind, body, and soul into harmony, because self-care deserves a soundtrack.

-Dinners at some of the Florida Keys’ premier local restaurants combine breathtaking views with flavors that hit all the right notes, from motownphilly to main course.

“After decades on the road, we’ve learned that sometimes the most powerful harmony comes from slowing down and experiencing all that travel has to offer,” said Boyz II Men. “That’s why we’re excited to team up with Booking.com to create space in an amazing vacation home where fans can relax, recharge and reconnect with both themselves and each other. Boyz II Zen: A Wellness Escape is all about good vibes, real connection and bringing rhythm into your life and travels in more ways than one.”
