The story of the Fülöp brothers begins in 1999, when Levante, barely ten years old, is sent into military service. His parents are alcoholics. His seven siblings have already been placed in a children’s home. Life has dealt him the same harsh, inescapable fate as his brother Csaba. They become servants, working in the fields and on farms. They attend school only briefly – just enough to learn a bit of reading and writing. Levante speaks of his dreams: going to school, getting good grades, maybe saving up to buy a horse. As an adult, he watches his siblings lead much happier lives. But he and Csaba fall into alcoholism, trapped in the same cycle, unable to fight this addiction. Now a shepherd in the mountain pastures, Levante reflects on everything that could have been – but never was. This slow-paced documentary follows his journey into adulthood. Set in Transylvania, in Romania’s Szeklerland region – home to the Hungarian minority.

In 1941, at just 35 years old, Greta Garbo – one of Hollywood’s brightest stars – stunned the world by announcing her retirement from film. At the height of her fame, celebrated for her beauty, talent, and enigmatic aura, she walked away from the screen and never looked back. “I would like to attend the premiere of my film at least once and return home satisfied,” she once said. But satisfaction eluded her. This captivating documentary weaves together rare archival footage, personal letters, interviews with those who knew her, and defining moments from her life to shed light on the mystery behind her decision. What drove Garbo – so admired, yet so alone – to leave it all behind? And which modern superstar would have the courage to do the same?
The film premiered last year at the Stockholm Film Festival.
A criminal, poet, servant, politician, revolutionary, warmonger, anarchist, and maniac, Limonov was truly a remarkable figure in the Russian and American underground of his time. He was a major influence – and repeatedly demonstrated which paths were bound to lead nowhere. Kirill Serebrennikov's new film tells Limonov's perverse story at the crazy and colourful pace of a roller coaster at some kind of remarkable fair. It takes the viewer from sheer excitement to utter disgust – and back again. It premiered in the main competition at the 2024 Cannes IFF and shows the strange political and artistic upheavals of the world in the second half of the 20th century.
The film was nominated for a Donatello David for visual effects.
The film In the Summer won the Grand Jury Prize for Best Feature Film and the U.S. Dramatic Grand Jury Prize at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival. It is an authentically portrayed, consistently realistic contemporary story, told across several time periods. The natural performances and focus on realism evoke strong empathy in viewers, who experience the upheavals of a troubled father-daughter relationship unfolding through changing times together with the characters. Alessandra Lacorazza's new film is a brilliant example and showcase of the American independent school/style, which is characterized by extraordinary accuracy in depicting reality, an emphasis on psychological detail, and a powerful statement about our everyday lives.

During Chinese New Year celebrations, Jerzy loses his daughter Meixiu, whom he had with his Chinese wife Lan. She was in a car accident and died of internal bleeding. Her grandfather Ben, who moved from China to Scotland, insists on performing the traditional Chinese ritual of minghun, or posthumous wedding, or some kind of ghost wedding, in which the souls of the unmarried dead are brought to the altar by their families. In the past, this was done for various reasons – to atone for the perceived shame of an unmarried daughter, or to secure an inheritance. Jerzy objects, calling it superstition and nonsense, but he doesn’t have the strength to stand up to Ben. The two set off to find a suitable groom in the morgues. During the negotiations about the meaning of this ritual and the preparations for its execution, sadness and despair become a metaphysical journey of accepting death and coming to terms with the loss of a loved one.
One of the first existentialist films in the Czechoslovak tradition, set over the course of a single night in a remote mountain hotel. From the first awkward introductions to the gradual rise in alcohol-fuelled chaos, it builds toward a painfully honest finale. A modernist setting and a mysterious man in sunglasses who keeps reappearing hint at themes of alienation and superficiality, while vibrant twist dancers embody the stirrings of the sexual revolution. Yet the local townsfolk observe these modern wonders with a mix of curiosity and disbelief – like spectators at a bizarre new zoo.
The film probes the limits of the human desire to escape the endless cycle of work and duty. Through a generational clash, it weaves a mosaic of characters weighed down by traumas that cannot be passed on or explained: from the scars of war, through the era of free love, to the naïve, tragic yearning to know what it’s like to have too much money.
