Certification15 Our Rating

Two soldiers return from Vietnam, one mentally scarred, the other physically. We flashback to their childhood and the fascination the slightly crazy one has with flying. So maybe after the horror of war it's a more logical decision to be a bird! A brilliant film about disillusionment, growing up and existential madness. find out more...

San Lorenzo's Night is the night when dreams come true in Italian folklore. It is also a night when an older woman recalls 1944, when she was six-years-old and the stars were shell bursts and a group of peasants fled the Germans and Fascists through the Tuscan countryside to American lines. 'La Notte Di San Lorenzo' is a stunning film, a mesmerising portrayal of love, loss, betrayal and hope. find out more...

"Josephine Decker has created a new style of thriller that employs allegory, incorporates touches of David Lynch as well as Magritte -esque imagery.

The raw and emotional (and yes, sometimes funny) dialog tells a story that can seem familiar at points but really is meant to keep you guessing and off balance. I really enjoyed how the undertones of this film came to life through her very deft contrast of the find out more...
