Why watch this film?
"Il Buco" directed by Michelangelo Frammartino is a stunning visual masterpiece that takes the viewers on a journey through the depths of life and nature. The movie chronicles the exploration of Europe's deepest cave by a group of young speleologists in the untouched Calabrian hinterland. The adventure goes unnoticed by the inhabitants of a small neighboring village but not by the old shepherd of the Pollino plateau whose solitary life begins to interweave with the group's journey. The movie is nearly wordless but manages to touch on the mystical and parallels two great voyages to the interior. The cinematography is breathtaking, and the organic beauty of the movie is mesmerizing. "Il Buco" reaffirms the old adage about a picture being worth a thousand words, and the director's vision is executed perfectly. The movie is a must-watch for anyone who appreciates the art of filmmaking.

Drama
Society of the Snow
On October 13, 1972, Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571, chartered to take a rugby team to Chile, crashes into a glacier in the heart of the Andes.
The Book of Wonders
A beautiful French production that deals with a profound theme in an accessible and sincere manner. The Book of Wonders tells the story of a woman (Alexandra Lamy) whose 12-year-old son falls into a coma. The mother embarks on a journey to fulfill adventures on the wish list as a way to cope with the loss and also to show the beauty of the world. Like any movie of this kind, it has its clichés, but if you're looking for something to warm your heart, this is an excellent choice.
Maestro
When you sit down to watch Maestro, it's natural to expect a biographical film about Leonard Bernstein, the talented and complex conductor portrayed by Bradley Cooper – who also directs. However, what unfolds in the plot is not something like a typical biopic, but rather a nuanced film about the love between Bernstein and Felicia Montealegre (Carey Mulligan). Slow and contemplative, the feature avoids the pitfalls of turning this story into a melodrama in the style of Marriage Story, subtly presenting the emotions. On the contrary, Cooper leaves much implied so that we, the audience, can feel what is happening and not just observe. Therefore, it's a film that demands a lot from the audience, requiring them to engage with the concept and not find it merely monotonous.
