A Bloodthirsty Killer
A man happens upon a painting of his long deceased ex-wife, and soon he and his family find themselves reacquainted with her bloodthirsty ghost.
Virtue
Given a second chance after her arrest for prostitution, Mae decides to go straight. Mae is soon befriended by kindly cab driver Jimmy Doyle who gets her work at a diner, where she meets Gert, another former prostitute. Mae and Jimmy fall in love, marry and save to buy a small business. Gert then pleads for money from Mae, which results in her unwitting involvement in a crime. Believing Mae has lied and cheated him, Jimmy threatens to leave her.
On the Edge
Things are busy at the Paris hospital where young psychiatrist Jamal and his colleagues work. The place is run down, the staff are exhausted, budgets are constantly being slashed. You know the story, but you’ve rarely seen it conveyed as engagingly as in ‘On the Edge’, which employs a handheld camera and meaningful, artistic interventions to observe the daily routine at the psychiatric ward. The deeply sympathetic Jamal is an everyday hero with an exemplary, humanistic disposition, for whom the most important prerequisites for mental health – and for a healthy society in general – are good relationships with other people. He puts his philosophy into practice by listening patiently, giving good advice and organising theatre exercises based on Molière. Realism and idealism, however, are in balance for the young doctor, at least as long as the institutional framework holds up.
Cucciolo
Massimo is forty-two years old, but has been attending eighth grade for thirty-two years, in short he is a teenager in all respects. In reality, Massimo has always refused, on an unconscious level, to grow up and become part of society. Amedeo and Lucia, Massimo's eighty-year-old parents, obviously worried, go to a doctor who explains to them that their son suffers from Peter Pan Syndrome. Only a big shock can bring him back to normal.
