Can you picture Littlefinger from "Game of Thrones" as a no-good uncle with a heart of gold? Aidan Gillen plays a convict who’s released early to care for his teenage niece. They move into a trailer in the Irish countryside and become the focus of a bitterswet dramedy that’s as provocative as its title. Filmmaker in attendance

After the death of her mother, teenager Stacy arrives at a secluded village in the Irish countryside to live with her uncle, who’s just been released from jail on a court order in order to care for his niece. Their first encounter is awkward, not to mention their cohabitation, but certain unexpected incidents, like shadows crawling in from the past, will bring them closer and closet together. A bittersweet dramedy that’s as provocative as its title, speaking to everyone’s need to find balance and get ahead in life. Young Lauren Kinsella is a revelation and Aidan Gillen, better known as Littlefinger from "Game of Thrones", is a real delight in a film that moved the entire Berlinale to tears when it premiered at Generation Plus.

Dégradé

13 completely different women are trapped in a beauty salon when violence erupts in the streets of Gaza. A seemingly typical situation comedy cleverly turns into a rather unusual and very timely sociopolitical allegory. Screened in Cannes as part of the Critics' Week competition.

The Wolfpack

The must-see documentary of the season! Locked away in their apartment for years, seven siblings find refuge in recreating classic movie scenes, putting together costumes and sets and acting out every single part. The earth-shattering revelation of their everyday drama is beyond your wildest imagination.

Sleeping Giant

Two reckless teenagers befriend a 15-year-old boy and challenge their own limits by doing everything they're not supposed to do, like smoke pot and look death in the eye. A provocative, skin-crawling observation of the teenage psyche that took this year's Critics Week by storm.

Above and Below

A couple lives in an underground tunnel in Las Vegas. A man survives in the California desert, using empty bottles to communicate with God. A woman plans her trip to Mars. These are the inhabitants of our own post-apocalyptic civilization. A hybrid sci fi doc that will blow your mind! Filmmaker and producer in attendance

Love – especially at great heights – conquers all, big and small. World Cinema Directing award at Sundance.
