A Hidden Life (December 13, 2019)

JUMP BACK TO TOP



Director: Terrence Malick

Starring: August Diehl, Valerie Pachner, Maria Simon, Tobias Moretti, Bruno Ganz, Matthias Schoenaerts, Karin Neuhauser, Ulrich Matthes, Michael Nyqvist

Synopsis:


"Based on real events, from visionary writer-director Terrence Malick, A HIDDEN LIFE is the story of an unsung hero, Franz Jagerstatter, who refused to fight for the Nazis in World War II. When the Austrian peasant farmer is faced with the threat of execution for treason, it is his unwavering faith and his love for his wife Fani and children that keeps his spirit alive."






The Kill Team (October 25, 2019 - in theaters and on VOD)

JUMP BACK TO TOP



Director: Dan Krauss

Starring: Nat Wolff, Alexander Skarsgard, Rob Morrow, Adam Long, Jonathan Whitesell, Brian "Sene" Marc, Osy Ikhile, Anna Francolini

Synopsis:


" When Andrew Briggman (Nat Wolff), a young soldier in the US invasion of Afghanistan, witnesses other recruits killing innocent civilians under the direction of a sadistic leader, Sergeant Deeks (Alexander Skarsgard), he considers reporting them to higher-ups -- but the heavily-armed, increasingly violent platoon becomes suspicious that someone in their ranks has turned on them, and Andrew begins to fear that he'll be the next target.

From writer-director Dan Krauss, and based on the same events that inspired his award-winning 2013 documentary of the same name, THE KILL TEAM is an urgent and explosive recounting of one of the darkest incidents in the not-so-distant history of American military exploits."







Parasite (October 11, 2019)

JUMP BACK TO TOP



Director: BONG Joon-Ho

Starring: SONG Kang-Ho, LEE Sun-Kyun, CHO Yeo-Jeong, CHOI Woo-Shik, PARK So-Dam, CHANG Hyae-Jin

Synopsis:


"Bong Joon Ho brings his singular mastery home to Korea in this pitch-black modern fairytale.

Meet the Park Family: the picture of aspirational wealth. And the Kim Family, rich in street smarts but not much else. Be it chance or fate, these two houses are brought together and the Kims sense a golden opportunity. Masterminded by college-aged Ki-woo, the Kim children expediently install themselves as tutor and art therapist, to the Parks. Soon, a symbiotic relationship forms between the two families. The Kims provide "indispensable" luxury services while the Parks obliviously bankroll their entire household. When a parasitic interloper threatens the Kims' newfound comfort, a savage, underhanded battle for dominance breaks out, threatening to destroy the fragile ecosystem between the Kims and the Parks.

By turns darkly hilarious and heart-wrenching, PARASITE showcases a modern master at the top of his game."

JUMP BACK TO TOP



Director: Larry Fessenden

Starring: David Call, Alex Breaux, Joshua Leonard, Ana Kayne, Addison Timlin

Synopsis:


"The legend of Frankenstein gets a provocative modern update in the stylishly disturbing new film from indie horror master Larry Fessenden.

Suffering from PTSD following his stint as an army medic, Henry (David Call) now works feverishly in his Brooklyn laboratory to forget the death he witnessed overseas by creating life in the form of a man cobbled together from body parts. After procuring a brain from an unwitting victim, his creation -- Adam (Alex Breaux) -- is born. But it soon seems that giving life to Adam was the easy part; teaching him how to live in a dark and troubled world may be perilous.

A complex, emotionally shattering tale about what it means to be human, DEPRAVED brings Mary Shelley's immortal fable fully into the 21st century."
