Film, ki je nastal na podlagi resničnih dogodkov, je zgodba o neverjetnem pogumu celotne skupnosti, pahnjene v težke trenutke; niza dogodke, ki so obdajali bombni napad na bostonski maraton in v slogu napete srhljivke podaja podrobnosti o enem najbolj pretanjenih in najbolje domišljenih pregonov na storilce v zgodovini obstoja policijskih sil.

Law student and all round good guy, Harper, suspects that his scheming step-father, Vincent, is responsible for the car crash that sent his mother into a coma. Drowning his sorrows one evening in a seedy L.A whiskey bar, Harper is interrupted by a tough looking redneck called Johnny Ray who offers to 'take care' of his step-dad for the cool sum of US$20,000. Angry, intent on revenge and fuelled by alcohol, Harper agrees to the deal and spends the rest of his evening downing shots with Johnny Ray. The next morning, Harper awakes to the mother of all hangovers with hazy memory of the previous night's events. Answering a knock at the front door, he is surprised to find Johnny Ray and his beautiful but distant girlfriend, Cherry, ready and waiting to drive to Vegas to kill Vincent. Harper's claims that he was drunk and didn't know what he was doing mean nothing to Johnny Ray who is more threatening than ever in the cold light of day. Harper quickly realises that there is no easy way out; ... [Imdb]

Ashley Douglas thinks everything should fall into place when he's released after three years in prison. His friends should come to his welcome home party. (They don't.)

So Ashley, a forty-something African-American, restarts his life with next to nothing: no friends, no lovers, no connections. All he has is a bedroom in his mom's house, a box of treasures he buried in his back yard, and a nostalgic and deeply ingrained need to be with Linda--his one, true love. That is, until he meets a new friend, Jeremy, and things start to turn around.

[ENG]


In the late 1980's, the Friedmans - father and respected computer and music teacher Arnold Friedman, mother and housewife Elaine Friedman, and their three grown sons, David Friedman, Seth Friedman and Jesse Friedman - of Great Neck, Long Island, are seemingly your typical middle class American family. They all admit that the marriage was by no means close to being harmonious - Arnold and Elaine eventually got divorced - but the sons talk of their father, while also not being always there for them, as being a good man. This façade of respectability masks the fact that Arnold was buying and distributing child pornography. Following a sting operation to confirm this fact, the authorities began to investigate Arnold for sexual abuse of the minor-aged male students of his computer classes, which he held in the basement of the family home. Based on interviews with the students, not only was Arnold charged with and ultimately convicted of multiple counts of sodomy and sexual abuse of these ... [By Hugo @Imdb]

[SLO]


Paterson je voznik avtobusa v mestecu Paterson v New Jerseyju. Njegovo življenje se odvija po ustaljenem ritmu. Skozi okno avtobusa vsak dan opazuje mesto, ki drsi mimo, in lovi drobce pogovorov med potniki. Med odmori v beležko zapisuje svoje pesmi. Po službi pelje na sprehod psa in v baru popije natanko eno pivo. Nato se vrne domov k ženi Lauri. Njen svet se za razliko od moževega ves čas spreminja in vsak nov dan ji prinaša nove sanje. A Paterson jo ljubi in ona ljubi njega. Film beleži sedem dni v življenju dveh povsem običajnih ljudi.

Jim Jarmusch je ustvaril tiho filmsko pesem o iskanju lepote v najbolj neznatnih trenutkih vsakdanjega življenja ter z njo očaral kritike in občinstvo na zadnjem festivalu v Cannesu.


Paterson slavi poezijo podrobnosti, variacij in vsakodnevnih interakcij. Je nekakšna protiutež mračnim, pretirano dramatičnim in akcijsko usmerjenim filmom. To je film, ki bi mu moral človek preprosto pustiti, da drsi mimo njega – kot podobe mimo okna avtobusa, ki kot mehanična gondola pluje po ulicah malega, pozabljenega mesta. /…/ Vedno sem si želel, da bi me nekoč imeli za filmski ekvivalent newyorški pesniški šoli. Pesnike te šole je močno zaznamoval majhen manifest, ki ga je spisal Frank O’Hara. O’Hara je bil zaposlen kot kustos v Muzeju moderne umetnosti; imel je torej pravo službo, pesmi pa je pisal med odmori za kosilo, podobno kot Paterson. V manifestu, ki mu je dal naslov Personizem, pravi: Pesem piši enemu samemu človeku, ne svetu. Piši jo, kot da pišeš pismo ali sporočilo.

[ENG]


Exactly one week in the life of a young man named Paterson of Paterson, New Jersey is presented. He lives an extremely regimented and routinized life, that routine perhaps most vividly displayed by the fact that he is able to wake up at exactly the same time every day without an alarm. That life includes eating Cheerios for breakfast, walking to work carrying his brown bag lunch packed in his lunch pail by his wife Laura, having a casual chat with his colleague Donny before he begins his shift driving the #23 Paterson bus for the local public transit company, walking home where he straightens out the exterior mailbox which somehow during the day gets knocked crooked, eating dinner with Laura and listening to her goings-on of the day, taking Laura's English bulldog Marvin - who he would admit to himself he doesn't much like - out for a walk to his neighborhood bar where he has one and only one beer before walking home with Marvin to climb into bed with an already asleep Laura.

Osamljenega najstnika Oscarja sta v otroštvu za vselej zaznamovala izkušnja surovega homofobičnega napada in mučna ločitev staršev. Zdaj živi pri zmedenemu očetu in se boji, da je sam homoseksualec. Dela vse, kar more, da bi zatrl svoje istospolne želje in vzgibe, predvsem pa se zateka v domišljijo s pomočjo svojega ljubljenega govorečega hrčka Buffyja. Ko spozna čednega in uporniškega novega sodelavca Wilderja, njegovo iskanje lastne seksualne identitete preglasita neustavljiva privlačnost in hromeči strah. Najbolj se boji tega, da bi njegov oče izvedel resnico o sinovem spolnem nagnjenju. Če naj spozna resnično srečo, bodo morali bujni domišljijski svet, ki ga je zgradil okrog sebe, nadomestiti eksplozivni izbruhi resničnih čustev. [Cinemax]

Svobodna priredba gledališke igre Smrt trgovskega potnika Arthurja Millerja, s katero iranski režiser Asghar Farhadi mojstrsko oriše stanje duha v državi. Največkrat nagrajeni film letošnjega Cannesa.

Rana in Emad sta srečen srednjerazredni par v Teheranu. On je učitelj, ona ostaja doma, razmišljata tudi o potomstvu. Oba sta člana polprofesionalne gledališke skupine, ki na oder postavlja klasično igro Smrt trgovskega potnika Arhurja Millerja, v kateri Emad igra vlogo neuspešnega trgovca, Rana pa vlogo njegove žene. Ravno ko predstava doživlja prve izvedbe, mora par zapustiti svoje stanovanje, saj se celotna zgradba zaradi gradbenih napak ruši pod svojo težo. Ko sta se prisiljena preseliti v novo stanovanje, incident s prejšnjo podnajemnico grozi, da jima bo trajno spremenil življenje. 

Smrt trgovskega potnika /.../ je zelo kompleksna igra, ki ponuja številne možnosti branja. Najpomembnejša razsežnost je družbena kritika zgodovinskega obdobja, ko je nenadno preoblikovanje urbane Amerike povzročilo razpad določenega družbenega razreda. Cela kategorija ljudi, ki se niso bili sposobni prilagoditi tej strmi modernizaciji, je bila strta. V tem smislu igra močno odzvanja v trenutnem položaju moje države. Stvari se spreminjajo z vrtoglavo hitrostjo, ali se prilagodiš ali pa podležeš. Družbena kritika v osrčju igre je v naši državi danes še vedno tehtna. (Asghar Farhadi)

[ENG]

Forced to leave their collapsing house, Ranaa and Emad, an Iranian couple who happen to be performers rehearsing for Arthur Miller's "Death of a Salesman" rent a new apartment from one of their fellow performers. Unaware of the fact that the previous tenant had been a woman of ill repute having many clients, they settle down. By a nasty turn of events one of the clients pays a visit to the apartment one night while Ranaa is alone at home taking a bath and the aftermath turns the peaceful life of the couple upside down.

[SLO]


Leta 2013 je ime Edward Snowden preplavilo domala vse svetovne medije. Nekdanji sodelavec ameriške Agencije za nacionalno varnost (NSA) je z razkritjem na tisoče tajnih vladnih dokumentov razgalil dejanski obseg nadzora telefonskih in spletnih informacij, ki ga ZDA vrši doma in v tujini. Šok se je v svetovni javnosti in političnih krogih razplamtel kot gozdni požar, Snowdna so nekateri ožigosali za izdajalca, drugi pa so ga razglasili za novodobnega heroja in pravega patriota. Kljub nasprotujočim si oznakam pa ni dvoma, da je takrat 29-letni Snowden žrtvoval svoje življenje, saj je v trenutku postal najbolj iskan človek na planetu. Njegovo neverjetno zgodbo je leto kasneje v gibljive slike prenesel z oskarjem nagrajeni dokumentarec Citizenfour, sedaj pa bo na velikih platnih zaživel še igrani celovečerec. Za slednjim stoji priznani režiser in večkratni oskarjevec Oliver Stone, ki nam bo s pomočjo glavnega igralca Josepha Gordona-Levitta prikazal Snowdenov notranji boj ter nas popeljal v zakulisje enega najpomembnejših dogodkov sodobne zgodovine.

Režija: Roger Ross Williams

Igrajo: Jonathan Freeman, Gilbert Gottfried, Alan Rosenblatt, Owen Suskind

[ENG]


Owen Suskind was a boy of considerable promise, until he developed autism at the age of 3. As Owen withdrew into his silent state, his parents almost lost hope that he find some way to interact with his world in some meaningful way. However, that way was found through animated films, especially those of the Walt Disney Company, which provided Owen a way to understand the world through its stories to the point of creating his own. This film covers the life of Owen and how he manages to become as functional as possible with the help of Disney and his family to the point of having his own life. However, Owen soon learns as well that there is more to real life than what Disney can illustrate in animation even as his family prepares itself for an uncertain future with him.


*********************


Life, Animated oversimplifies the situation, contriving to use endless clips from Disney movies to make a case that movie magic really can better people's lives. Unfortunately, by the end of the movie it's clear that Disney can't help Owen negotiate sex, breakups or many other challenges he faces as an adult.

Skoraj štiridesetletni Saša pripada generaciji, ki ji je vojna vzela mladost, pa tudi ambicije in upe za svetlo prihodnost. Njegova mlajša sestra Senada je kot otrok prebegnila iz obleganega Sarajeva in živi v Sloveniji. Oče in družinski glavar Muhamed se kot direktor krčevito oklepa podjetja, ki je zastarelo in propada, ter ostro obsoja sinovo malodušje in brezdelje. V njunem navzkrižnem ognju je mati Marija, ki se v požrtvovalni skrbi za dom dobro zaveda, da je družina tisto najpomembnejše.        

Filmska sevdalinka Ines Tanović (omnibus Neke druge zgodbe) je presunljiv in čustveno pristen, toda hkrati umirjen, humoren in realističen portret sarajevske meščanske družine v tranzicijski družbi. Kandidat Bosne in Hercegovine za oskarja v kategoriji najboljši tujejezični film se ponaša z odlično igralsko zasedbo z različnih koncev nekdanje Jugoslavije. 


Naš vsakdan je film o meščanski družini v današnjem Sarajevu, ki se sooča z vsemi težavami tranzicijske družbe. To je film o generaciji v štiridesetih letih, ki je preživela vojno, ki ni dočakala nikakršnega spektakularnega obdobja miru in ki že dve desetletji išče svoje mesto v družini in družbi. Kot avtorici mi je najpomembnejše sporočilo: ko začne ljudem življenje razpadati na poslovnem, zdravstvenem in čustvenem področju, dojamejo, da je družina tisto, kar je najpomembnejše, da je to pravzaprav človekova edina oaza. /…/ Po celovečernem omnibusu, šestih kratkih igranih in petih dokumentarnih filmih, po številnih festivalih in nagradah mi je uspelo posneti prvi celovečerni igrani film. Nanj sem se pripravljala tako rekoč od gimnazijskih let. Vmes sem napisala tudi več scenarijev za igrane celovečerce in eden izmed njih je prejel podporo fundacije Hubert Bals z rotterdamskega filmskega festivala.
