Trailer
Why watch this film?
"Cuernavaca" is a strong and shocking movie, despite its overly slow pace that may turn some people away. It tells the story of Andy, a young boy whose life changes overnight when his mother is involved in an accident. Now without anyone to take care of him, the boy is forced to move to Cuernavaca, the home of his paternal grandmother (Carmen Maura). This is when things in the movie get strange, even a bit experimental. While the grandmother does everything to keep him away and hide many secrets, the boy comes into contact with the gardener's son, who is as attractive as he is dangerous. Special mention goes to Maura's (‘Matador’, ‘A Lei do Desejo’) and Emílio Puente's good performances, who manage to get the most out of their characters even in Alejandro Andrade's experimental direction. And beware: you have to be in the mood to watch the feature film.

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.
