[ENG]

An exhausted, workaholic actress, Anna Baskin, 44, abruptly extricates herself from a successful but mind-numbing TV role, returning to her past life in New York to reinvent herself. But despite the desire for transformation, she cannot find herself outside of her career. When an upsetting personal betrayal unexpectedly leads to the role of her life, she must confront the reality of her past relationships in order to clear a path forward. The intimate story of Anna and her friends Isaac and Kate become magnified by the film's surrounding themes: gentrification, addiction, autoimmune disease, burnout, sexism in the film industry and 21st century marketing of the self.

Igrajo: Isabelle Huppert, Jules Benchetrit, Gustave Kervern, Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi, Tassadit Mandi, Michael Pitt, Abdelmadjid Barja, Mickael Graehling, Larouci Didi, Thierry Gimenez

[ENG]

Samuel Benchetrit delivers a rather unexpected ode to solidarity with his fifth feature. Selected for the Special Screenings programme at the 2015 Cannes International Film Festival, Macadam Stories presents three portraits of a run-down French housing project’s inhabitants, explored with a gloomy and bewitching palette.

Clinically depressed Sternkowitz (the hilarious Kervern) ends up in a wheelchair after a stationary bike accident. Lost in a hospital corridor, he crosses paths with a beautifully melancholic nurse (Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi) and reimagines himself as a photographer.

Lonely and neglected teenager Charly (Jules Benchetrit) assists his unemployed and adrift neighbour, 80s actress Jeanne Meyer (Isabelle Huppert), in her search for a career-revitalising role.

The quiet and caring Mrs Hamilda finds great company in lost astronaut John McKenzie (Michael Pitt), whose pod has landed on the building’s rooftop.

As we witness these three encounters and the forging of new relationships, we see that the key to a happier society may lie in opening ourselves to our neighbours, nurturing everyday interactions.

Advised by their therapist to try and work through their grief unconventionally, they are reminded of their shared love of music. In a last-ditch effort to save their marriage, they decide to turn all their fights into song, and with the help of their neighbor Dave (Fred Armisen), they start a band. A story of love, loss, and rock and roll, Band Aid is a witty and perceptive view of modern love, with some seriously catchy pop hooks to boot.

Via Liffe

Brezkompromisen, s črnim humorjem začinjen retro strelski obračun med preprodajalci orožja v sodobni britanski "krimi" maniri.

Boston v poznih sedemdestih. Odločna Justin v zapuščenem skladišču organizira ilegalno prodajo orožja med pripadnikoma IRE in organizirano tolpo, ki jo vodita nasilneža Vernon in Ord. Dokaj običajen posel se po nepričakovanem strelu nenadoma spremeni v peklenski ognjemet. Krogle kot za stavo frčijo sem ter tja in vsi vpleteni se trudijo odnesti celo kožo - pa tudi svoj del plena ...

"Hotel sem ustvariti akcijski film bolj po človeški meri. /.../ V policijskih poročilih sem bral, kako je videti pravi strelski obračun in kako nor je lahko. Kako nihče ničesar ne zadane. V poročilih piše, da so ameriški policisti izstrelili dvesto krogel ... in vse so zgrešile! Če se tarča vsaj malo premika, je ne moreš zadeti. /.../ V zgodbi se prodaja orožja ponesreči in vsi se začnejo silovito streljati med seboj, zatem pa so vsi na tleh. Preostanek filma pa se sprašuje: Kaj storijo zatem?" (Ben Wheatley)

[ENG]

Justine (Brie Larson) has brokered a meeting in a deserted warehouse between two Irishmen and a gang led by Vernon (Sharlto Copley) and Ord (Armie Hammer), who are selling them a stash of guns. But when shots are fired during the handover, complete pandemonium ensues, with everyone at the scene suddenly thrust into a heart-stopping game of survival.
