Why watch this film?
Movies about the Great Wars are quite common in cinema and most of them are quite dense and hard to watch. In 'Waiting For Anya' we follow a story based on the book of the same name by Michael Morpurgo, which is tough but also very beautiful and hopeful. Noah Schnapp, Will from 'Stranger Things', and Anjelica Houston star in this period production. With beautiful cinematography, sensitive performances and an emotionally powerful soundtrack, this is a movie about a part of a history we already know that is worth revisiting. Not only for bringing an unknown narrative, but also for the strength of the script.

Blackmark
This movie builds a fictional story based on real events about a major crisis during the Cold War, leading to a conspiracy theory even about the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. With a tight budget, director and screenwriter A.J. Martinson is quite creative in overcoming challenges and making an action thriller. The Soviets, of course, are the main bad guys but the film also touches on CIA and US government corruption and interests.

The Peasants
The Peasants is an animated film by the same directors of Loving Vincent, using the same innovative technique, which could be described as "oil-painted rotoscopy". Based on the Nobel Prize-winning novel The Peasants (1904) by Władysław Reymont, it's a tale of desire and revenge told in four episodes, one for each season of the year. The story, set in Poland at the turn of the 20th century, follows a young peasant woman who wreaks havoc by marrying an older, wealthy man, whose son also desires her, despite being married. It is a powerful and bleak, although conventional tale about violence and misogyny, somewhat overshadowed by its beautiful and prodigious visual execution.
