Why watch this film?
"Le Rayon Vert" is one of the great French films of the 1980s. Directed by Éric Rohmer, it is loosely based on Jules Verne's work of the same title, taking place in France at that time. Thus, we have a beautiful narrative about self-discovery, with empathetic and relatable characters - touching on themes such as loneliness, anxiety, and depression. After all, who has never gone through failed relationships and the need to find a new direction when nothing works out? Special mention for the great performance of Marie Rivière ("Autumn Tale").

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.
