From the same director
Dog Day Afternoon
With a brilliant performance by Al Pacino, 'Dog Day Afternoon' is remembered as an anti-system movie amid the American disillusionment with the Vietnam War. Above all, it deals with gender identity issues, so it can also be considered a classic queer film. The movie is inspired by the real-life story of John Wojtowicz, adapted from a famous LIFE magazine article, "The Boys in the Bank".
Drama
Big Bang
In Uberlândia in Brazil, Chico earns his living by repairing ovens, in which he enters easily thanks to his small size. Faced with the contempt of a system that relegates him to the ranks of the marginalized, he gradually enters into resistance.
Life of a King
Starring Cuba Gooding Jr., an ex-convict trying to start anew begins teaching chess to teenagers at a public school, and ends up transforming these young lives forever.
The Silent Twins
'The Silent Twins' is the astounding true story of twin sisters (Letitia Wright and Tamara Lawrance) who only communicated with one another. As a result, they created a rich, fascinating world to escape the reality of their own lives.
Blondi
Argentine actress Dolores Fonzi (Wind Remains, I'm Your Fan) makes her directorial debut with Blondi, a comedy-drama about the eponymous single mother (Fonzi) and her son, Mirko (Toto Rovito). Their relationship is more like that of friends than mother-son: they go to concerts and parties together, share secrets and marijuana. Blondi portrays a simple story in which the events are a pretext to analyze this form of motherhood compared to others in a society where the expectations of the role are still quite rigid, but without falling into didacticism or becoming a pamphlet movie. Fonzi imparts an authentic and spontaneous spirit that, even if it is at times scattered in its narrative, is very fun and emotional. Read more in our full review.
