Mexico 86
Mexico 86 paints a vivid portrait of Mexico’s political and social landscape, where past and present, motherhood and activism, politics and the personal intertwine. César Diaz delivers a gripping second feature, driven by the powerful and intense performance of Bérénice Bejo.
The Weeping Walk
The director takes us deep into a bizarre funeral procession that unexpectedly turns into an offbeat road trip. A darkly humorous and unconventional journey that upends family dynamics along the way.
On vous croit
Alice is a mother willing to do anything for her children, even if it means facing a family court judge. A breathtaking performance in both acting and direction.
Cassandre
How can one find a sense of normalcy in a suffocating family environment? Cassandre, 14, tries her best to do so. Hélène Merlin showcases her remarkable directing talent in this poignant debut feature, brought to life by the captivating Billie Blain.
No Dogs Allowed
No Dogs Allowed manages to tell a story that seems almost unspeakable: that of Gabo, a 15-year-old teenager who shares his unhealthy urges with the wrong person. A challenging subject that prompts reflection and introspection on our own beliefs and emotions.
Family Therapy
Dive into the heart of this Slovenian bourgeois family, whose tranquility is shaken when a young outsider invades their intimacy. The director delivers a perfectly executed social satire, brought to life by a remarkable cast.
