Plot / Synopsis: 
Reykjavik, 1999. A man is interrogated by the police. He was arrested the previous night after a fight. Stebbi can’t remember a thing about it – blind drunk again. In front of the police station smoking a cigarette, Stebbi meets his childhood friend Tóti, a no-nonsense guy with an enormous tattoo on his bald head, a goatee and frightful eyes. ‘If you have any problems, just give me a call,’ Tóti says, handing him a card. Then Stebbi finds himself in a world of tough guys, athletic drug dealers, stunning blondes, mountains of coke, truckloads of ecstasy and other designer drugs, robberies and slaughter. The frames are askew, sometimes in split-screen. The colour pallet of this adrenaline-pumping crime thriller is dominated by the black of the night, the white of the snow and the red of the blood that flows copiously. In a voice-over, Stebbi provides a dry commentary.

The leader of the gang indulges in violent sexual fantasies, which ultimately leads to rape and murder. This inspires a teen gang from the streets, whose members are poor kids from the ghetto.The story is quite interesting, especially the aspect of the impact the neo-Nazi gang has on the street gang in the end, although the gangs as such have nothing in common. The plot unwinds with the fact that one of the leaders of the neo-fascist circle seen in relation to the girl from the “left” of the family. This know his friends, and for that he and she should be punished, in the spirit of the Marquis de Sade. Next new leader continues his desadovskie experiments.

Plot / Synopsis:
A woman who was the victim of a brutal crime develops a strange relationship with the man who attacked her in this drama from Russian filmmaker Angelina Nikonova. Marina is a social worker who works with battered women; she’s taking a few days off from work and spending time with her husband Ilya and friends Valery and Tanya at their vacation cottage in the country. Marina thinks she hears the cries of a woman in distress one evening, but the others think little of it, and Marina herself is distracted by her ongoing affair with Valery. As it happens, what Marina heard was a streetwalker being raped by three rogue police officers led by the good-looking but conscienceless Andrei, and when Marina crosses their path, she’s also assaulted by the cops. Several days later, Marina returns to the scene of the crime and finds Andrei in a nearby diner. However, rather than attacking him or bringing him to justice, Marina goes home with him, and the two fall into a perverse sexual relationship brought on by a variety of conflicting emotions she can’t articulate. Portret v Sumerkakh (aka Twilight Portrait) received its world premiere at the 2011 Kinotavr Open Russian Film Festival, where it became a subject of understandable controversy among both critics and audiences.

Daniel has always been determined to live out of the public eye, above all for prudence’s sake because he fears that the adventures that he’s obsessed with hiding will be revealed. They’re adventures that are similar to those that the hero of his famous novel “A Winter Voyage” goes through. His literary agent constantly acts as a screen so that Daniel can live incognito, far from his fans. On the boat that takes him to Capri, Daniel encounters Mila, a young woman with whom he spends a passionate night. Then, once Fabrizio and his wife have exchanged marriage vows, Daniel discovers that the new bride is none other than Mila. She becomes his obsession. He starts to lead a double life, troubled by the existence of a blackmailer who threatens to expose his relationship, along with others that date back more than twenty years to when he was in Poland.

Plot / Synopsis
Acclaimed director Miguel Gomes returns with a sumptuous, eccentric two-part tale centered on Aurora, shown first as an impulsive, cantankerous elderly woman in present-day Lisbon. When Aurora is hospitalized, she sends her neighbor, Pilar, to pass word of her grave condition to Gian Luca, a man of which no one has ever heard her speak. Pilar’s quest to fulfill her friend’s wish transports us to Africa fifty years earlier, before the start of the Portuguese Colonial War. We see Aurora again, this time as the gorgeous, smoldering wife of a wealthy young farmer, involved in a forbidden love affair with Gian Luca, her husband’s best friend. Their moving, poetic tale is conveyed through the older Gian Luca’s suave voiceover, combined with the lush, melodious sounds of its heady, tropical setting, peppered with a soundtrack of Phil Spector songs.

Plot / Synopsis: 
Burning with sexual tension and delicious dialogue, this compelling and highly cinematic two-hander featured at this year’s Sundance Film Festival. It stars the veteran Spanish actor José Sacristán and the beautiful, young María Valverde. Director David Trueba is the younger brother of the celebrated Fernando Trueba, and a prominent writer and director in his own right.
On one hot day, a cultured and respected reporter arranges to meet a young journalism student in a café. He soon convinces her to return with him to a friend’s empty apartment. However, his seduction misfires and the pair become trapped together for the rest of the day in a locked bathroom.
Though the title refers to a specific time and place (one of political transformation), the drama and the questions it raises about desire, age and power are universal. Literally stripped bare, can the film’s two characters understand or even survive each other.

Survivors both, Aliide and Zara engage in a complex arithmetic of suspicion and revelation to distill each other’s motives; gradually, their stories emerge, the culmination of a tragic family drama of rivalry, lust, and loss that played out during the worst years of Estonia’s Soviet occupation.

Plot / Synopsis:
The forces of nature speak to three young people in unusual ways in this impressionistic drama from director Angelos Frantzis. A woman and two men wander into a heavily wooded forest and spend the day and night exploring the surroundings. As they walk among the trees, the hills, and the streams, their exposure to the unspoiled beauties of nature, both inviting and forbidding, brings out a new side in the three friends, and they explore sexual and emotional sides of their relationships they never acknowledged before. Visually striking and employing very little dialogue, Mesa Sto Dasos (aka In the Woods) was shot using consumer-grade equipment – a still camera on movie capture setting and a laptop computer to record audio – and the limitations of the gear add to the film’s unique look, with richly saturated color and a visual grain not unlike small-gage film. In the Woods was an official selection at the 2010 Rotterdam International Film Festival.

Plot / Synopsis:
Alina is a woman possessed. Returning to her homeland after working menial jobs in Germany, she is determined to rescue her childhood friend Voichita from the monastery she was sent to after both girls were ejected from an orphanage at the age of eighteen. Alina’s single-minded resolve excludes any consideration that the docile Voichita might have actually found fulfillment in this austere retreat — and a means of forgetting the lesbian relationship she and Alina once shared, a forbidden love that Alina is eager to rekindle. Standing between them is the unyielding “Papa”, the head of the monastic order, who responds to Alina’s aggression with an ever more zealous dogmatism. He soon comes to believe that Alina has fallen prey to demonic possession, and it is his duty to chastise her soul. The only problem is that he fails to take account of the frailty of her body.
