One hint, 6 chances, and a new movie to guess every day
Ex-con Kermek and his beloved Eva want to leave their crime-infested lives on the Kazakh steppes behind. He has a dream: building a movie theater in the mountains. Will Kermek’s love of Alain Delon be strong enough to keep them out of the violent clutches of the mafia?
"Selected at film festivals such as Venice and San Sebastian (among others in the Asian circuit), 'Yellow Cat' is a film by Kazakh filmmaker Adilkhan Yerzhanov which tells the story of an ex-convict cinephile and his girlfriend, who want to make his dream come true of building a cinema in the mountains, to escape the mafia forever. It's a movie that overflows with love for the French New Wave -a constant reference being actor Alain Delon and his film 'Le Samouraï', directed by Jean-Pierre Melville- and its influences from 1960s cinema in general. The result is like a strange idiosyncratic comedy, like an innocent contemporary version of 'Bonnie and Clyde', with a manifest love for cinema."
