Reviews Reviews Reviews Reviews Reviews Reviews Reviews Reviews Reviews Reviews Reviews Reviews Reviews Reviews Reviews Reviews Reviews Reviews Reviews Reviews

“A phenomenal new filmmaker has arrived from Thailand! The Most Elegant Human-Vacuum Romance You’ll Ever Watch… Unlike his protagonist, Boonbunchachoke's directorial debut does not suck.”

A USEFUL GHOST

“The real deal! It’s stylish and ambitious... an excellent film! This hard-edged Coming-of-Age Drama Set in Roma Shantytown Takes Notes from Fellini.”
CRITIC’S PICK.

SLEEPLESS CITY

“Echoes the thematic grandeur of Studio Ghibli’s 'Princess Mononoke'... Visually arresting, 'Death Does Not Exist' is a painting in motion.”

DEATH DOES NOT EXIST

“A kaleidoscope of moments, a sensory tale, where life nibbles away at fiction all the time.”

L'AVENTURA

“One of the most important films we've seen here so far... A picturesque story in the style of Guiraudie, nourished by the dense exchanges of Rohmer.”

DRIFTING LAURENT

“CRITIC’S PICK. Like ‘Lost Highway’ Directed by Kiarostami… leaves you dazed and feverish. Rated A-.”

The Things You Kill

“There can’t possibly be a more timely film in the Berlinale lineup this year than Kateryna Gornostai’s Timestamp… Gornostai paints a surprisingly optimistic portrait.”

Timestamp

“The best movie at Cannes this year is an oddball Canadian comedy. Universal Language is a magnificent film.”
