Winner of the Directors’ Fortnight prize in Cannes, this moving, critically acclaimed drama is the directorial debut of the distinguished Italian- Scottish actor Kim Rossi Stuart (‘The Keys to the House’, ‘Beyond the Clouds’) who plays a freelance movie cameraman struggling to raise a teenage daughter and an 11year old son after his neurotic wife has deserted the family. The action is seen through the eyes of the boy, Tommi (an extraordinary screen debut from 11 year old Alessandro Morace), a withdrawn, extremely bright lad, eager to win his father’s approval but constantly failing. It’s moving, honest and flawlessly acted.

“Presented” by producer Guillermo del Toro (‘Pan’s Labyrinth’), ‘The Orphanage’ is a richly layered Spanish gothic horror movie.

When Laura moves back into the house that used to be the orphanage she lived in as a girl, she is 37, married, and she and her husband have adopted a son - Simón, a little boy with HIV who doesn’t know that he’s terminally ill or adopted. Simón is wildly creative - he has several imaginary friends and a penchant for treasure hunts, mind games, and the story of Peter Pan. One day after a mysterious visit from a social worker and Simón’s revelation that he knows the truth about his adoption and illness, he disappears.

The rest of the film follows Laura’s desperate search for her son as she comes to terms with her loss and her own past as well. Not for the faint of heart as it is frequently quite scary.

Based on Nobel Prize-winning author Gabriel García Márquez’s best-selling novel and directed by Mike Newell (‘Four Weddings and a Funeral’, ‘Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire’) comes this captivating love story set in turn-of-the-century South America.

Oscar-winning ‘Pianist’ scribe Ronald Harwood adapts the story of two young lovers who bide their time for years while anxiously awaiting the day they can finally be together. Through marriages, affairs, careers, and deaths, the couple never loses hope that destiny will unite them in the end.

In this latest Rambo installment, John Rambo has retreated to a simple life in a rural Thai village near the Burmese border, capturing snakes for local entertainers, and transporting roamers in his old PT boat. Following repeated pleas, Rambo helps ferry a group of Christian aid workers into war-torn Burma, where the local Karen villagers are regularly tortured and massacred by Major Tint's sadistic soldiers.

The humanitarian mission is going well, until the village is attacked and the missionaries are kidnapped, and Rambo is once again asked to transport - but this time a group of mercenaries, assembled by the missionaries' minister on a deadly rescue mission. This time he doesn't stay behind.
