Trailer
Why watch this film?
A disaster movie from Norway that stays true to the genre conventions: some human characters the story relies on, as a pretext for showing us action, destruction and survival scenes. However, Maremoto compensates for its conventionalism with an excellent execution, as the destruction scenes in the middle of the sea are as tense as they are impressive. It will certainly be a delight for fans of this type of movies.

The Quake
The Norwegian film 'A Onda' was atypical: outside of the traditional circuit, director Roar Uthaug (who would go on to direct the new 'Tomb Raider') managed to create a grandiose blockbuster about survival and the end of the world. In this case, a tsunami that forms in a small town in the heart of Norway. Now, five years later, the franchise returns for another catastrophe in 'Skjelvet'. In this case, as the name itself says, an earthquake of unprecedented proportions promises to destroy the capital Oslo. Without Uthaug's direction, and now under the command of the inexperienced John Andreas Andersen (from the good movie 'Uno'), the franchise loses vitality and the effects become more erratic. However, that's it: for those who liked 'A Onda' and have a special affection for movies like 'Deep Impact' and 'Daylight', they will find guaranteed fun. And the best part: coming from a country with very little tradition in action cinema, showing that there is room for experimentation.
Thriller
The Dive
Two sisters go diving at a beautiful, remote location. One of the sisters is struck by a rock, leaving her trapped 28 meters below. With dangerously low levels of oxygen and cold temperatures, it is up to her sister to fight for her life.
Golda
One of the main figures in the political landscape after World War II was Golda Meir. With her warm features, like a grandmother serving cake and coffee, the Israeli politician was one of the founders of the State of Israel and led it during the 1970s, being responsible for managing the country in times of conflict while Israel established itself as a nation before the rest of the world. It is precisely during this period that Golda, the feature film, takes place, which follows the backstage of the Yom Kippur War, when Israel faced Egypt and Syria. It is a smart biographical drama, which cuts off a single scenario to tell the life story of one of the most emblematic (and controversial) characters in Jewish political history. With Golda being played by an unrecognizable Helen Mirren, heavily made up but with force in her facial expressions, the feature film manages to impress with its faithful portrait of the Prime Minister. There is only one point of attention: director Guy Nattiv (Oscar-winning for the short Skin) fails to address other views on Golda and the Israeli cause to embrace a single view of Israel and Golda as the good guys and the Arabs, as has been happening for decades in cinemas, as heartless villains.
The Ritual Killer
Unable to process the death of his daughter, Detective Boyd embarks on a hunt for a serial killer who murders according to a brutal tribal ritual: Muti. The only person who can help Boyd is Professor Mackles, an anthropologist who hides an unspeakable secret. The line between sanity and madness thins as Boyd goes deeper into the killer’s world.
Lost & Found
Mario, a worker in a "lost and found" warehouse, finds a suitcase with the remains of baby inside. His investigation leads him to a dangerous prostitution and trafficking ring.
