Committed

From Cyprus with love comes this combination of road movie and romantic comedy, proving that passion for film can overcome every obstacle.

From Cyprus with love comes this combination of road movie and romantic comedy, proving that passion for film can overcome every obstacle. Just like South African-Cypriot Stelana Kliris did, who not only wrote and directed this film, but worked tirelessly to get it funded through crowdfunding platform Indiegogo, convincing 125 people to help make her dream come true.

The result was a beautifully shot romantic comedy with over 20 different locations around Cyprus about the chance encounter of two very different people who seem to be dealing with the same problem. George has commitment issues, but so does "the Bride". The two will meet cute when George spots her on the side of the road, wandering around in her wedding dress.

Their road trip will reveal a lot about themselves and what they're trying to escape and, despite the fact that none of them is good with relationships, they will form an unlikely bond. T.Th.

Hallelujah

From Belgium with love. Based on the real-life story of the "Honeymoon Killers", a pair of doomed lovers that shocked the American media in the 40s with a series of gruesome murders, ""Hallelujah" is a devastating film on the limits of passion, the pleasure of crossing the line and the orgasmic pain of punishment.

Red Rose

Within the historical context of the "Green Revolution" Sepideh Farsi recounts a love story between a politically complacent middle-aged man and a young activist, blending scripted scenes with devastating onthe- ground footage captured on cell phones during the unrest.

You're Sleeping Nicole

Build on a loose, episodic structure with consistently stunning cinematography, a light-hearted mood and a wonderful turn by Julianne Côté as the titular Nicole, the hidden gem of the last Cannes Film Festival is casting humorous looks at the first inevitable responsibilities that come with being an adult.

The Heart Machine

Ingeniously adopting the mechanisms of a mystery-thriller, Zachary Wigon's debut is an insightful and timely commentary on the contemporary social media frenzy.

Cheatin'

Staying true to his handmade aesthetics, the king of indie animation embraces a multitude of cinematic references, without sacrificing his sense of humor, his unbridled imagination and his flair for bizarre plot twists, in this personal anthem to falling in love.
