Trailer
Why watch this film?
Saoirse Ronan ("Lady Bird"), Elisabeth Moss ("The Handmaid's Tale"), Annette Bening ("American Beauty"), Corey Stoll ("House of Cards"), Billy Howle ("The Legitimate King") and Mare Winningham ("Philomena") together in this adaptation of the Russian play 'The Seagull' by Anton Chekhov. As expected, the performances are the highlight of the movie, which maintains all the subtext and nuances of the original.

Single All the Way
Romantic Christmas comedies always follow the same path, with heterosexual couples made up of white people. That's why a movie like 'Single All the Way' is so interesting. Directed by Michael Mayer (of 'The Seagull'), the feature film tells the story of Peter, a young man who, tired of being the family's bachelor, convinces his best friend Nick to pretend to be his boyfriend at Christmas dinner. But things change completely, in the style of Christmas romantic comedies, when Peter's enthusiastic mother invites the handsome James to introduce her son. With good performances by Jennifer Coolidge ('American Pie'), Michael Urie ('Ugly Betty') and Luke Macfarlane ('Brothers & Sisters'), the feature film is a light and unpretentious fun that breaks labels at the same time that it invests in those clichés that everyone wants to watch at Christmas time, brightening up everyday life a little more.
Drama
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.
Green Border
'Green Border' - In the treacherous and swampy forests that make up the so called “green border” between Belarus and Poland, refugees from the Middle East and Africa trying to reach the European Union are trapped in a geopolitical crisis cynically engineered by Belarusian dictator Alexander Lukashenko. In an attempt to provoke Europe, refugees are lured to the border by propaganda promising easy passage to the EU. Pawns in this hidden war, the lives of Julia, a newly minted activist who has given up her comfortable life, Jan, a young border guard, and a Syrian family intertwine.
Astral City 2: The Messengers
A group of messenger spirits led by Aniceto, including doctor André Luiz, are tasked with going to Earth to help rescue three proteges whose interconnected stories are about to fail.
