Trailer
Why watch this film?
Benedict Cumberbatch delivered a great performance as Alan Turing, a genius who not only helped to unravel one of the Nazi's greatest secrets during World War II but was also a major influence in the initial development of computers. Yet, he had conflicting feelings inside and was judged by society due to his sexuality. Despite some historical inconsistencies, the movie manages to bring all of this to the screen while still being entertaining. Definitely worth watching.

Passengers
Space has always been a good setting to talk about loneliness and, consequently, fear of the unknown -- from 'Alien: The Eighth Passenger' to 'Ad Astra'. In 'Passengers', filmmaker Morten Tyldum ('The Imitation Game') dives right into these premises to tell the story of two passengers on a spaceship (Pratt and Lawrence) who are awakened before their time on a space mission. More precisely 90 years. From this, a desperate situation is created for the two, who simply will not make it alive to the final destination. Tyldum works well with the genre's clichés, showing how loneliness can exist even with company. The big problem with 'Passengers' is in its conclusion, the target of fury from critics and part of the public, who see the script glorifying an unethical attitude. It is up to each one to conclude and, mainly, to provoke: what would you do if you were in the shoes of these characters?
Drama
Kidnapped
In Kidnapped (Rapito), Italian filmmaker Marco Bellocchio delves into one of the murkiest and most controversial episodes in the history of the Catholic Church, the "Mortara case". In 1851, when Jewish boy Edgardo Mortara becomes gravely ill, his Catholic nanny decides to baptize him in an emergency. However, papal law dictates that all Catholics must be raised as such, so the cardinal orders the boy to be taken and handed over to the church, against his parents' wishes, who decide to fight for him. The film recounts a controversial case that captured the attention of the rest of Europe and America, and skillfully portrays the clash of interests between the waning power of the church, Mortara's parents, and public opinion, with irreversible consequences for all involved.
Green Border
'Green Border' - In the treacherous and swampy forests that make up the so called “green border” between Belarus and Poland, refugees from the Middle East and Africa trying to reach the European Union are trapped in a geopolitical crisis cynically engineered by Belarusian dictator Alexander Lukashenko. In an attempt to provoke Europe, refugees are lured to the border by propaganda promising easy passage to the EU. Pawns in this hidden war, the lives of Julia, a newly minted activist who has given up her comfortable life, Jan, a young border guard, and a Syrian family intertwine.
Astral City 2: The Messengers
A group of messenger spirits led by Aniceto, including doctor André Luiz, are tasked with going to Earth to help rescue three proteges whose interconnected stories are about to fail.
