Party Girl (2014)
Trailer
Why watch this film?
"Party Girl," winner of the Camera D'Or at the Cannes Film Festival's Un Certain Regard show in 2014, is inspired by the director's own mother's story. The plot is good and the cast even better, particularly lead actress Angélique Litzenburger - who is incredible in her role.

Drama
On the Fringe
A Spanish social drama with thriller elements, starring Penelope Cruz ("Dolor y Gloria") and Luis Tosar ("Celda 211"), about the intertwined stories of three characters in difficult economic situations seeking to survive 24 crucial hours for their futures. "En los márgenes" could easily lend itself to exploiting its character's conditions in the most miserable way. However, director Juan Diego Botto and his co-writer Olga Rodríguez find the humanity in these circumstances and bring it to the forefront, presenting a powerful tale of the power of solidarity in tough times.
Please Baby Please
A musical comedy best described as Love Without Borders through the kitsch and camp of John Waters and Pedro Almodóvar, Please, Baby, Please follows a couple who witness a murder, becoming the obsession of a gang, starting with fear and ending in lust. The chameleon Andrea Riseborough (Mandy) delivers a delirious performance alongside Harry Melling (Crimes of the Academy). It will please more fans of Rocky Horror Picture Show than traditional musicals, but it's certainly an experience.
