Why watch this film?
'The White Tiger' draws a parallel between 'Parasite' (Bong Joon-ho, 2019) and 'Who Wants to Be a Millionaire' (Danny Boyle, 2007). Ramin Bahrani, who also acted in the direction of 'Fahrenheit 451', did a captivating job in criticizing the political and social scope of India, where society has a clear division between rich and poor. And because of the castes, there is no way for the miseries to ascend as in other economic systems, although the division of classes in India is based on religious precepts. The main nucleus formed by Adarsh Gourav, Priyanka Chopra and Rajkummar Rao make the movie even more interesting, especially for the funny scenes of Gourav.

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.
