Why watch this film?
Jane Fairchild, an orphaned domestic servant, is alone on Mothering Sunday. After all, on this warm spring day in 1924, her employers have gone out and nobody has been left behind. It is at this moment that the protagonist, played by a powerful Odessa Young (‘The Professor’, ‘Country of Violence’), realizes that she has a rare opportunity to spend some time with Paul, her secret lover. From there, the feature film, set in a post-World War I backdrop, explores the complexities of this moment, with the character's story intertwining with the behavior of those around her. In addition to Odessa Young, the star-studded cast features appearances by Colin Firth and Olivia Colman, as well as a standout performance from the always capable Josh O'Connor (‘Emma.’).

Girls of the Sun
"Les Filles du Soleil" tells a story that is not only extremely current, but also one that has been passed down through generations. The film takes place in Kurdistan, a region inhabited by the Kurdish people and which, in practice, is divided between the sovereign countries of Turkey, Iran, Syria, and Iraq. We often hear news about the political crisis there, but it is difficult to understand, in practice, the impact of this on people's lives. "Les Filles du Soleil" brings us exactly that, through a group of Kurdish women who intend to defend their village against extremists. One of the characters, played by Emmanuelle Bercot (from "My King") is inspired by journalist Marie Colvin, who is the subject of another feature film: "A Private War". Although this film has its problems, mainly in the script, it is an incredibly important account to open our eyes - as well as an incredible cinematic achievement.

The young Hadley Sullivan, 17 years old, is having the worst day of her life so far: she missed her flight and is stuck at JFK airport, late for her father's second wedding, which is taking place in London and involves a future stepmother Hadley has never even met. However, as is typical in movies like "Love at First Sight," fate plays with her: in the crowded airport waiting area, she meets the perfect boy. He is British Oliver, who is sitting in the same row as her. A long night on the plane passes in the blink of an eye, and Hadley and Oliver lose contact in the eternal airport chaos upon arrival. That's when fate steps in again: will it finally bring them together?
