Why watch this film?
Generally, when we talk about road movies, we think of long car trips, with endless roads in sight, and an inherent transformation of its characters as they burn rubber on the asphalt. So, what bucolic change can we find in the delicate and simple 'Antoinette dans les Cévennes'? Directed by first-time feature filmmaker Caroline Vignal, the French film tells the story of a woman (Laure Calamy) who gets frustrated after her lover decides to spend his vacation with his wife and daughter. So, disgruntled, she takes her things and goes to the same destination as her secret love. It's a long walk on a bucolic trail, accompanied by the donkey Patrick. With the typical French humor, which flirts with sensitive themes, it's hard not to get on board with the protagonist's raw emotions. After all, Calamy navigates well between exaggerated humor and more evident feelings, modulating her humor a lot and enriching the film. But the highlight is the donkey, a character that serves as a catalyst for something bigger.

Christmas as Usual
Thea is going back to her rural hometown in order to celebrate a classic Norwegian Christmas with her family, but this year she's bringing along Jashan, her Indian boyfriend. What was supposed to be Christmas as usual, turns into a tumultuous and heartwarming festive period that will put everyone's preconceived beliefs and traditions on their heads.
Down Low
Repressed divorcé, Gary hires Cameron, a spirited and boundary-free sex worker to give him an erotic massage. When Cameron learns how inexperienced middle-aged Gary is, he becomes determined to deliver a crash course in unapologetic queer life. Cameron's agenda of hookup apps and gay nomenclature quickly causes the day to take several riotously obscure turns as the pair endure a nosy, pill-popping neighbor, a dark web intruder, and more in a hilarious evening of consequences and confrontation.
No Me Rompan
Two women struggling with anger issues join forces to defeat an eccentric surgeon who endangers their lives, in this hilarious, comedy-filled romp.
Candy Cane Lane
Like Jumanji, but set in Christmas. Starring Eddie Murphy and Tracee Ellis Ross, "Candy Cane Lane" is a family Christmas comedy in which a man unintentionally makes a deal with a mischievous elf. Now, to avoid being turned into a doll, he must collect the golden rings owned by the characters from the classic song "The 12 Days of Christmas." It's a conventional and somewhat chaotic Christmas movie, but it's enjoyable due to the performances of its cast.
