A photo-journalist, returning from a fruitless trip to the States, has a small child, Alice, dumped on him in a New York airport. The pair journey across Germany searching for her home town, whose name and address Alice can't remember, the only clue they have is a photograph of her grandmother's front door with no house number and no one in the shot. Full of low-key charm, an eminently watchable road movie that closely foreshadowed "Paris Texas".

"American Honey is a wind-through-your-hair sort of picture with, you might argue, too many literal shots of wind going through hair, as this posse hitch rides to and fro, devoting their days to a door-to-door sales mission before rendezvousing nightly and resuming the party. You could also argue that this almost intentionally exhausting film is too much of a good thing. B find out more...

The boys behind Daft Punk move into experimental art house cinema with this their directorial debut about two robots (oh yes) on a quest to become human. An intriguing, though perhaps not entirely successful, labour of love that, though with a frustratingly small amount of their own fine music, boasts an excellent soundtrack from Mayfield, Eno, Haydn and Chopin. A cinematographically beautiful midnight movie.

It's a beautiful thing when a director is confident enough to take his time telling a story, and Shinji Aoyama is not a man to rush things. A brother and a sister and a bus driver are the only people left alive after they and their fellow passengers are taken hostage by a young nihilist. What follows is essentially a road movie as the survivors find themselves drawn back together, united in loss and a sense of displacement. The greatness of the film lies in its movement forwards. Just as the cha

Everything is Illuminated tells the story of a young man's quest to find the woman who saved his grandfather in a small Ukrainian town that was wiped off the map by the Nazi invasion. What starts out as a quest to piece together one family's story under absurd circumstances turns into a meaningful journey with a powerful series of revelations - the importance of remembrance, the perilous nature of secrets, the legacy of the Holocaust, and the meaning of friendship. A flawed but refreshingly quir
