Drama
Son of Monarchs
After his grandmother’s death, a Mexican biologist living in New York returns to his hometown, nestled in the majestic monarch butterfly forests of Michoacán. The journey forces him to confront past traumas and reflect on his hybrid identity, sparking a personal and spiritual metamorphosis.
Unclenching the Fists
In a small mining town in North Ossetia, Russia, a young woman feels suffocated by her family, living between rejection and love: a complicated life, to say the least. From there, the young Ada (Milana Aguzarova) begins to plan her long-awaited escape. Directed by Russian Kira Kovalenko, Unclenching the Fists won the main prize in the Certain Look section of the Cannes Film Festival, offering an insightful look into Russian society, mainly with regard to the women of the region.
The Last Film Show
From director Pan Nalin (Samsara), The Last Film Show is a semi-autobiographical film whose premise immediately calls to mind the classic Italian film Cinema Paradiso. The story follows a small rural Indian boy, Samay (Bhavin Rabari), who goes to the cinema for the first time and falls in love with it. Against his father's wishes, he decides to skip school and go back to the cinema again and again, where he becomes friends with the projectionist and learns more about making films. He and his friends decide to try to learn about light to project films, but gradually, Samay realizes that following his dream means leaving behind what he loves. With its nostalgic childlike discovery of something you love for the first time, plus countless references to filmmakers such as Tarkovski and Malick, The Last Film Show is an ode to the act of growing up and learning, with a subtle comment on the alleged accessibility of cinema as an art form for everyone.
Fanfic
According to the dictionary, fanfic is the abbreviation of the English term "fanfiction," which is a fiction created by a reader or viewer who, being a fan of a literary, film, theatrical, television or animation work, creates a continuation to the story or recreates it using their creativity. And that is the heart of the Polish romance Fanfic. Although the movie does not talk about anyone recreating a story, it does tell of two teenagers who come to love each other and need to find a way to express this love to the world, perhaps recreating this story with a lot of creativity. In a polished manner, reminiscent of comic book language, the movie speaks of love in youth with creativity, although it cannot escape those clichés that plague the genre to make it more enjoyable.
