A highly narrative dramatic - romantic film by by Robin Campillo dealing with male prostitution and the trafficking of boys from the Eastern Europe in France. Winner of 70th Venice Orizzonti section.

Hrútar (Rams) – Thessaloniki 56

Fuoco! (Fire!, 1968)

Gian Vittorio Baldi directs a piece of art that through its consistency can work on political and dramaturgical level without losing its impactful realism.

El Chacal de Nahueltoro (Jackal of Nahueltoro, 1969)

One of the most important political films not only for Chilean cinema but also for the whole South America directed by Miguel Littín.
