Why watch this film?
If you still have doubts that Willem Dafoe is one of the great actors in activity, first be ashamed of yourself. Then, go watch Inside and make sure you are wrong. After all, this film by the Greek Vasilis Katsoupis is the typical one made for an actor to shine – in this case, Dafoe. He plays Nemo, a man who enters a billionaire's apartment to steal very important works of art. However, his world collapses when the door he entered through is accidentally closed, and he can't get out in any way. The windows are bulletproof, the door is made of steel. Over 100 minutes, we follow this man struggling to survive inside an apartment where the conditions are the worst possible, yielding iconic moments like Dafoe crying with his head inside the freezer while playing the Macarena. It's fun, unusual, and still with sour touches of melancholy. It's not a great film, as it seems not to know which path to take and is clearly an outdated idea of a pandemic. But you can marvel at Dafoe, who shines throughout the film and makes us cry and laugh in equal measures.

Third: her father - owner of a funeral home - is looking for a new partner. But Meeri has something that is only hers, something very special - she can fly.
Underdog
In its effort to raise awareness about the precarious social reality of certain sectors of the population, Mexican cinema tends to fall into miserabilism (or so-called "poverty porn"), whether in documentaries or fiction. The quest of Mexican cinema for new creative and narrative horizons is ongoing, and in the case of Underdog (Correr para vivir), director and co-writer Gerardo Dorantes opts for what, in its conventions, is an action and crime thriller extrapolated to the context of the Rarámuri (or Tarahumara) indigenous people of northern Mexico, famous for their running tradition (and their extraordinary talent for it). The plot follows two brothers: Omero (Vladimir Rivera), who dreams of being a runner; and Capó (Manuel Cruz Vivas), who is more talented but also troubled. Both are dragged into a life of service to the drug trade when Capó, in an attempt to provide for his pregnant girlfriend, fails in a cocaine delivery. To be honest, it's a good attempt to steer Mexican cinema towards other directions that are not the typical exploitation of social dramas or anthropological documentaries. However, the film ends up falling into the same vices, representing Rarámuri culture from a superficial and idealized exoticism, creating entertainment from a real social context with little sensitivity.
Downtown Owl
'Downtown Owl' - Searching for a break from her cosmopolitan life in Milwaukee, Julia Rabia (Lily Rabe), arrives in the closeknit Reagan-era town of Owl, North Dakota for a one-semester high school teaching job. But when the small town turns out to be a wonderland of second-string poets, smoldering Marlboro Men, and a social hierarchy that echoes high school, Julia doesn't know if she's come to town to get away from home or to find it. Ed Harris, Vanessa Hudgens, Henry Golding, and Finn Wittrock also star in this Great Plains dark dramedy directed by Lily Rabe and Hamish Linklater. Based on the novel by Chuck Klosterman.
