Whiplash

The boundaries between dedication and self-destructive obsession in the quest for perfection are redefined in Damien Chazelle's brilliant debut, which took home the Grand Jury Prize and the Audience Award at Sundance.

Ambitious drummer Andrew wins a spot on Terence Fletcher's top-notch jazz ensemble, whose methods include merciless psychological manipulation. Bewitched by the promise of a great career, Andrew endures untold abuse, sweating and bleeding over his drum kit, all the while dangerously close to the edge.

Few careers have kicked off with such a loud bang and no other film will deliver the same adrenaline rush - at least not this year. Ch.L.
