Gangster Squad
Los Angeles, 1949. Ruthless, Brooklyn-born mob king Mickey Cohen runs the show in this town, reaping the ill-gotten gains from the drugs, the guns, the prostitutes and — if he has his way — every wire bet placed west of Chicago. And he does it all with the protection of not only his own paid goons, but also the police and the politicians who are under his control. It’s enough to intimidate even the bravest, street-hardened cop… except, perhaps, for the small, secret crew of LAPD outsiders led by Sgt. John O’Mara and Jerry Wooters who come together to try to tear Cohen’s world apart.
Everyday's Lie
Hisham and Hadia, who work at the same advertising agency, an invitation to spend a vacation in Marsa Alam, in a resort owned by Sherihan. Hisham takes his wife, Aida, and Hadia takes her husband, Adel, and the four of them go on a vacation that will put their marriages to the test.
Sins of the Flesh
Hassan and Fatma are a couple, living and working in a farm of wealthy owner Mourad. In the first days of the Jan 25th revolution, Ali seizes a security breach to break out of jail and runs to his cousin Hassan, for shelter. The latter takes him in but soon after, Mourad discovers the love that Fatma and Ali shared, years ago. This romantic history, fuelled by mounting sexual frustration, will come back to haunt all those involved.
Kirikou and the Wild Beasts
The film is a sub-story to Kirikou and the Sorceress rather than a straight sequel. The movie is set while Kirikou is still a child and Karaba is still a sorceress. Like Princes et princesses and Les Contes de la nuit, it is an anthology film comprising several episodic stories, each of them describing Kirikou's interactions with a different animals. It is however unique among Michel Ocelot's films, not only in that it is co-directed by Bénédicte Galup (who has previously worked with him as an animator) but also for each of the stories being written by a different person (in all other cases, Ocelot has been the sole writer and director of his films).
