The Bookstore That Never Sleeps
AKASHI
Akashi is a multigenerational love story told across parallel timelines. Kana, a struggling artist in Vancouver, returns to Tokyo for her grandmother’s funeral, feeling out of place after ten years abroad. As she reflects on a secret only she and her grandmother shared—that her grandfather had another lover she unexpectedly reconnects with an old love, Hiro. Intercut with the past, which traces her grandfather’s decades long affair, Kana confronts hidden family truths.
Muganga
Denis Mukwege, a Congolese doctor and future Nobel Peace Prize laureate, risks his life to treat thousands of women who are victims of sexual violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo. His encounter with Belgian surgeon Guy Cadière will give new strength to his commitment.
Complaint nº713317
Magdy and Sama, a retired couple in their 60s, live quietly in their Cairo apartment. Their calm routine is disrupted when their fridge breaks down. What should be a simple repair spirals into a bizarre, months-long battle with a shady maintenance company. As the fridge remains unfixed, so does everything else, pushing them to confront not only the cracks in the system but also in their own sense of purpose.
The Fox
Nick (Jai Courtney) is an average Aussie guy, but when his fiancée Kori (Emily Browning) cheats on him he is unwise enough to listen to a sly fox (Olivia Colman) who promises to transform his partner into the perfect woman and in doing so take control of the natural world.
