Trailer
Why watch this film?
Movie that gave the Oscar to actor Christopher Plummer, the oldest to win the award in the supporting category, 'Beginners' emotionally touches when it tells a story about sexuality, acceptance and identity. After all, the plot follows the story of a young man who is shocked when he discovers that his father, a terminally ill cancer patient, reveals himself as a homosexual man. It's a beautiful, sensitive movie with the dilemmas of life, and it gains even more strength with a cast in tune with the message of the story.

20th Century Women
Nominated for an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay, the movie is a great comedy about the changing of customs (especially of women) between the late 1970s and 1980s - something that, in a way, still resonates today. The story is sophisticated and entertaining, while Annette Bening and Elle Fanning are great on screen as mother and daughter.
C'mon C'mon
What a sensitive, beautiful and delicate movie 'C'mon C'mon' is, a feature film directed and written by Mike Mills ('Every Kind of Love', 'Women of the 20th Century') and starring Joaquin Phoenix ('Joker'). With a beautiful black and white photography, it tells the story of an uncle (Phoenix) who must learn to deal with and live with his nephew (Woody Norman), an intelligent and eccentric boy who faces problems with his parents. Without weighing down and becoming a melodrama, the movie moves with the most beautiful aspects of a relationship and, mainly, with the process of life discovery by a child. All this emotion gains even more powerful airs with the good performances of the main duo: Phoenix hits as this uncle who tries to share his love between work and family, while Norman shows a rare cinematic power in children.
