'71

During a bloody riot, a soldier is cut off from his unit, stranded amidst rampant paramilitary factions. Come nightfall, the city turns into a battlefield in an unrelenting nightmare, where it's impossible to tell your friends from your enemies.

A group of British soldiers is deployed to Belfast in 1971, in the middle of a raging conflict between the Protestants and the Catholics that could spin out of control at any given moment.

During a bloody riot, a soldier is cut off from his unit, stranded amidst rampant paramilitary factions. Come nightfall, the city turns into a battlefield in an unrelenting nightmare, where it's impossible to tell your friends from your enemies.

In one of the most lauded debuts in recent film history, French-Algerian newcomer Yann Demange stuns audiences with his surprising ability to negotiate the prickly subject of a painful civil conflict, while navigating the demands of a production that could easily dwarf any number of big budget Hollywood adventures.

Unfairly shut out from the 2014 Berlinale awards, this is a riveting anti-war parable with none of the usual clichés, brilliantly combining Ken Loach's legacy with the unsurpassable craftsmanship of action film master Paul Greengrass. N.S.

10,000 km

A masterful single shot, staged in a Barcelona apartment, welcomes viewers to the most important feature debut to come out of the Iberian Peninsula in the past year: "10,000KM" by Spanish filmmaker Carlos Marques-Marcet.

Natural Sciences

In an isolated school in rural Argentina, surrounded by breathtaking mountains, 12-year-old Lila has a hard time adapting, as her mind is fixed on a single thought: her desire to find the father she never knew.

The Way He Looks

Daniel Ribeiro's feature debut is the most moving and sensitive LGBT film of the year, as it deals with unspoken desires as part of human nature rather than curiosity.

When Animals Dream

Everyone in their coastal town steers clear of Marie. But their fearful attitude and her wheelchair-bound mother, suffering from a mysterious illness, are the least of her problems. Marie's body has started changing, long hair growing on her chest and back, forcing her to search for answers concerning her family's hidden past and the reasons behind this sudden transformation.

The Canal

David is a film archivist and has just moved with his wife Alice into a new house, near an old canal. Everything seems to be going well on the surface, but the young husband is beginning to suspect his wife is cheating on him, while some old archival footage reveals that his home was the scene of a gruesome crime in the beginning of the 20th Century.

The Mend

When you've seen every possible storyline turned into a movie in every possible way (and sometimes, more than once), then every time you come across something fresh, unpretentious or authentic on the silver screen, you can't help but feel the excitement of an explorer who has finally discerned a strip of land after a long journey at sea.
