Trailer
Why watch this film?
One of the most powerful performances of Lesley Manville's (‘Phantom Thread’) and Liam Neeson's (‘Taken’) careers, 'Ordinary Love' is one of those heartbreaking dramas that pierces the soul. And it's no wonder. After all, directors Lisa Barros D'Sa and Glenn Leyburn invest in this heavy drama, which borders on melodrama, to tell the story of a couple who have to deal with a serious illness of the wife. It's the typical movie like ‘Side by Side’ or ‘A Proof of Love’, in which an illness guides the feelings, emotions and sensations of the narrative. There are some exaggerations and a lack of delicacy on the part of the filmmakers, who are also partners in the good ‘Good Vibrations’. However, in the end, emotion takes over the screen and the experience is worth it, especially for those who like a good drama, with good actors and a cast that gives itself to the story. To cry and be moved.

Drama
Cake
'Cake' takes us into the darkly funny world of Claire Bennett (Jennifer Aniston) who initiates a dubious relationship with a widower (Sam Worthington) while confronting fantastical hallucinations of his dead wife (Anna Kendrick). With her feisty housekeeper cum caretaker (Adriana Barraza) ever at her side, Claire searches for human connection and self-forgiveness in this tale of personal redemption.
Lie With Me
Lie With Me (Arrête avec tes mensonges) - An emotional French drama directed by Olivier Peyo, has been awarded the award for Best Narrative Feature Film at FilmOut San Diego. The film follows a writer who returns to his hometown of Cognac after 35 years to represent a cognac brand and reunites with the son of his first love, a role played by Victor Belmondo, triggering an avalanche of passionate memories of his youth.
Kidnapped
In Kidnapped (Rapito), Italian filmmaker Marco Bellocchio delves into one of the murkiest and most controversial episodes in the history of the Catholic Church, the "Mortara case". In 1851, when Jewish boy Edgardo Mortara becomes gravely ill, his Catholic nanny decides to baptize him in an emergency. However, papal law dictates that all Catholics must be raised as such, so the cardinal orders the boy to be taken and handed over to the church, against his parents' wishes, who decide to fight for him. The film recounts a controversial case that captured the attention of the rest of Europe and America, and skillfully portrays the clash of interests between the waning power of the church, Mortara's parents, and public opinion, with irreversible consequences for all involved.
