Why watch this film?
Based on a true story, '7 Days in Entebbe' shows the human side and mental trauma of the hijackers - a rare feat in films that speak of terrorism. Directed by the Brazilian José Padilha ('Elite Squad'), we get to know another angle of the hijacked plane in 1976, forcing the crew to land in Entebbe, Uganda. This is a tragic story and a good adaptation by Padilha.

Elite Squad
A direct and visceral account of the forces at work in a favela, from drug trafficking to the police. One of the biggest successes in national cinema, one of the few to achieve a truly popular status, in the original sense of the term, with its characters’ lines repeated ad nauseam by Brazilians - and also with international repercussions, receiving the Golden Bear of the Berlin Festival.
Drama
Kidnapped
In Kidnapped (Rapito), Italian filmmaker Marco Bellocchio delves into one of the murkiest and most controversial episodes in the history of the Catholic Church, the "Mortara case". In 1851, when Jewish boy Edgardo Mortara becomes gravely ill, his Catholic nanny decides to baptize him in an emergency. However, papal law dictates that all Catholics must be raised as such, so the cardinal orders the boy to be taken and handed over to the church, against his parents' wishes, who decide to fight for him. The film recounts a controversial case that captured the attention of the rest of Europe and America, and skillfully portrays the clash of interests between the waning power of the church, Mortara's parents, and public opinion, with irreversible consequences for all involved.
Green Border
'Green Border' - In the treacherous and swampy forests that make up the so called “green border” between Belarus and Poland, refugees from the Middle East and Africa trying to reach the European Union are trapped in a geopolitical crisis cynically engineered by Belarusian dictator Alexander Lukashenko. In an attempt to provoke Europe, refugees are lured to the border by propaganda promising easy passage to the EU. Pawns in this hidden war, the lives of Julia, a newly minted activist who has given up her comfortable life, Jan, a young border guard, and a Syrian family intertwine.
Astral City 2: The Messengers
A group of messenger spirits led by Aniceto, including doctor André Luiz, are tasked with going to Earth to help rescue three proteges whose interconnected stories are about to fail.
