what to see? Le Tout Nouveau Testament The Revenant Black Fifteen year old Mavela is a member of the notorious gang Black Bronx. She falls head over heels in love with the charismatic Marwan, a boy from the rival 1080 -ers. The two young people are brutally forced to choose between loyalty to their gang or the love for each other. An impossible choice... Or not? 14-01-16 James White A frontiersman on a fur trading expedition in the 1820’s fights for survival after being mauled by a bear and left for dead by members of his own hunting team. Did I mention the frontiersman was played by Leonardo DiCaprio? No? Oh. Goosebumps. 28-01-16 Watch out as watching the trailer might already make you cry. James is a troubled twenty something trying to stay afloat in a frenzied New York City. He retreats further into a selfdestructive, hedonistic lifestyle, but as his mother battles a serious illness, James is forced to take control of his life. 28-01-16 The Danish Girl What if God really existed and would spoil our lives on a daily basis all managed from a computer in an apartment in Brussels? a film full of oddities and amazing visual inventions. Totally surreal but yet so cool. 05-11-2015 The Imposter Anomalisa Mediterranea The deserved oscarwinning co-director Charlie Kaufman, who came up with the story made a total human film and I personally had to blink twice to see this was an animated stop-motion film. The images are tremendous and I bet this is already one of the must sees of the year. 25-02-16 Is a loosely inspired love story by the lives of Danish artists Einar and Gerda Wegener. Einar makes the ground braking decision to continue life as a woman. The movie explains the effect this decision had for their marriage as well as for their art. 14-01-16 A remarkably eye-opening film about two men making the dangerous journey from Africa to Italy for a better life, but then face hostility and violence in this shocking look at the life-and-death struggle of refugees. 11-02-16 8 A gripping thriller straight out of real life that walks the razor’s edge between true-crime documentary and film noir mystery. Nicholas was 13 the day he disappeared. Three and a half years later he is found alive, thousands of miles away in southern Spain with a story of kidnap and torture. His family is overjoyed to bring him home. But why does he now have a strange accent? Why does he look so different? And why doesn’t the family seem to notice these glaring inconsistencies?
