REVIEWS

Volchok (Wolfy, 2009)

Vassily Sigarev's debut feature is a raw violent drama of the destructive relationship between a mother and her daughter. A masterpiece of the Russian New Drama.

Aquarius – Jerusalem 33

In his sophomore film, Kleber Mendonça Filho penetrates Brazilian falsely beautified society through Sônia Braga's stunning performance.

Boy Meets Girl (1984)

The first masterfully structured abstract elegiac work by Leos Carax as he becomes French cinema's most acknowledged enfant terrible.

Deniz Gamze Ergüven creates a "joyful" feministic fairytale that explores if teen rebelliousness and sexual awareness can survive in conservative Anatolia. Heart of Sarajevo for Best Feature Film at the 21st Sarajevo Film Festival.

Zvizdan (The High Sun) – Thessaloniki 56 Balkan Survey

Dalibor Matanić makes a different post-traumatic approach of the Yugoslav wars as love has to stand in front of any inter-ethnic conflicts.
