The Kid With a Bike
A drama with a tremendous heart, about a boy trying to get closer to his father, and about a mother who sees raising her son practically alone. A story of frustrations, pains, and hopes that we all have as we grow. It will surely touch you - and it will be one of those movies hard to forget.

Two Days, One Night
Considered by many to be one of the best films starring Marion Cotillard, ‘Two Days, One Night’ earned her a second Oscar nomination and was included in the Official Selection of the 2014 Cannes Film Festival. The simple story follows a woman forced to take time off from work due to health reasons and finds out that if she wants to keep her job, she must convince her coworkers to give up their bonus. The movie’s cinematography and Cotillard’s performance are in perfect sync, making it one of the great films of Cannes.

Young Ahmed
The directors Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne have built a solid career on characters who are left behind. This was the case of the unemployed woman in 'Two Days, One Night' or the boy abandoned by his father in 'The Kid with a Bike'. Now, in 'Le jeune Ahmed', winner of the Cannes Film Festival's Best Director award, this look of the directors falls on religious fanaticism. Ahmed, the protagonist, is the typical impressionable character, but one that arouses anger in the audience. In part he is a victim, in part he is a tormentor. And from this, the Dardennes build a difficult and uncomfortable film, showing the coldness of the boy at the same time as they accuse society of leaving him behind. There is a lack of subtlety, so often seen in other films by the brothers. But the result still brings light to this delicate subject. And most importantly: with the realistic, almost documentary style of the two filmmakers.

The Unknown Girl
A sad, tragic, yet richly reflective essay on projection of guilt, questions of responsibility, and the weight of death. It evolves intensely from a study of dramatic characters to a kind of near-thriller, always unsettling, always enthralling. Nominated for a Palme d'Or at Cannes and a César Award.
Drama
Herself
A young mother escapes her abusive husband and fights back against a broken housing system. She sets out to build her own home and in the process rebuilds her life and re-discovers herself.
Chinese Widow
After Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor Dec. 7, 1941, USA bombs Tokyo to boost morale. A pilot survives thanks to a Chinese woman's help.
Blue Jean
England, 1988 - Margaret Thatcher's Conservative government is about to pass a law stigmatizing gays and lesbians, forcing Jean, a gym teacher, to live a double life. As pressure mounts from all sides, the arrival of a new girl at school catalyses a crisis that will challenge Jean to her core.

Boston Strangler
In the 1960s, the American city of Boston began to suffer from a series of mysterious murders, in which elderly women were violently killed with nylon stockings tied around their necks. In the investigations of the crimes, two names stood out: journalists Loretta McLaughlin (Keira Knightley) and Jean Cole (Carrie Coon). While the police remained inactive, the two broke down prejudices and became the first to uncover links between the crimes and to show them on the newspaper's front page. This is the story of 'The Boston Strangler', a drama with suspenseful touches, originally from Star+ that follows the behind-the-scenes of this journalistic investigation. In addition to talking a lot about the crime itself and how it actually represented violence against women, the film directed and written by Matt Ruskin (Crown Heights) exalts these two women and shows how difficult and important it is to be so ahead of their time.
