Trailer
Why watch this film?
Inspired by the real-life case that happened in a criminal rehabilitation program in Carson City, Nevada, 'The Mustang' is a powerful movie that marks the directorial debut of French actress Laure de Clermont-Tonnerre. Though it may seem apparently simple, this Sundance selected feature will surely captivate you with its story about redemption, second chances and reconnecting with our human side. Matthias Schoenaerts' (‘Rust and Bone’) performance is truly remarkable - also accompanied by the legendary Bruce Dern ('The Hateful Eight'). The beautiful cinematography by Ruben Impens (‘Raw’, ‘Alabama Monroe’) will captivate you.

Lady Chatterley's Lover
A new cinematic adaptation of the eponymous (controversial at the time) novel by D.H. Lawrence, 'Lady Chatterley's Lover' is about the titular woman, Connie (Emma Corrin, 'My Policeman'), the wife of a wealthy gentleman who returns from the First World War with injuries that prevent him from walking or taking care of himself, making Connie feel trapped in the marriage. Then she meets Oliver Mellors (Jack O'Connell- 'Unbroken'), the estate's caretaker, with whom she takes refuge and experiences her true sexual awakening. Directed by Laure de Clermont-Tonnerre ('Mustang: Wild Spirit'), it is one of the best adaptations of the novel, which although it does not bring many novelties in terms of narrative, is refreshing for its direct and frank treatment of female eroticism.
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.
