    La casa de mi abuela / My Grandmother's House. 2005. HD.
    At first glance, not much is happening in My Grandmother's House. A grandmother is taking care of her grandchild while her parents are at work. Six-year-old Marina is expected to conform to the daily rituals that determine 75-year-old Marita's conservative and religious life in a dull industrial town in the Spanish Alicante province. The girl rebels in her own impulsive and headstrong way against her grandmother's strictness and sombre outlook on life. Adan Aliaga visualises the naturalness of their contact and the seemingly insurmountable differences between their worlds. Simple actions are the starting point from which the director, in short chapters, zooms in on recalcitrant sensitivities and ironic details. This makes the film a poetic and subtle exploration of Marina's still unbiased and innocent attitude on the one hand and Marita's repressed pain and growing despair on the other. The fact is that the house Marita has lived in for 52 years has to be demolished, and she cannot stand the thought of moving. Playfully and tenderly, My Grandmother's House shows the bickering and the nevertheless invariable love between a grandmother and her grandchild.
    Director: Adan Aliaga.
    Cast: Marita Fuentes, Marina Pastor, Miguel Such, Ana Jimenez, Asuncion Ferrando, Remedios Ferrando, Elena Pastor, Vicente Aliaga, Rosa Zornoza, Juan Carlos Pastor, Pedro Montes Garamillo.

    Ecce homo Homolka / Behold Homolka. 1969. FULL-HD.
    CZ. Rodina Homolkových opouští každou neděli zaprášenou Prahu a vyráží na celodenní výlet do přírody. V dědově taxíku se v plném počtu - děda a babi, jejich syn Ludva s manželkou Heduš a dvojčaty Péťou a Máťou - vydávají do lesů. Tady nejprve v rojnici vyrážejí na houby a po marném hledání odpočívají na poetickém paloučku. Idylku vyruší volání o pomoc, a tak Homolkovi po krátké diskusi raději nasednou do auta a odjedou. V Praze zasednou k improvizovanému obědu, který tvoří buřty s hořčicí. Po obědě sice přichází na řadu nedělní pohoda, ale ve skutečnosti je to klid před bouří. Vše začíná, když se Ludva pokusí přemluvit Heduš, aby šla s dětmi a babi na dostihy sama a jeho nechala jít s dědou na fotbal.
    EN. It is a beautiful Sunday and the Homolka family are having a picnic in a forest not far from Prague.

    Biologie! 1990. FULL-HD
    DE. Biologie! ist ein Spielfilm der DEFA von Jörg Foth aus dem Jahr 1990 nach dem Roman „Wasseramsel“ von Wolf Spillner aus dem Jahr 1984.
    Eine Kleinstadt im Norden. Die fünfzehnjährige Oberschülerin Ulla und Winfried lieben sich. An einem Waldbach außerhalb der Stadt verbringen sie ihre erste gemeinsame Nacht. Kurz darauf wird der Bach zum Streitobjekt - nicht nur zwischen ihnen. Bei einer Klassenexkursion zu dem Gewässer, an dem Pflanzen und Tiere bisher ungestört existieren konnten, entdecken die Schüler, daß hier jemand Datschen baut und den Bach für eine Forellenzucht anstaut. Ulla lehnt sich gegen diesen Eingriff im Landschaftsschutzgebiet auf. Doch der da baut, ist Winfrieds Vater, Generaldirektor und einflußreich. Alle beugen sich der Macht, nur Ulla nicht. Am Ende steht sie vor einem Schultribunal und wird relegiert.
    EN. In a small East German town shortly before the fall of the Wall, Ulla, a sensitive and principled 10th-grader, meets computer-obsessed Winfried, son of a chemical plant manager. On a field trip with her biology class, Ulla discovers that a trout farm and weekend homes are being built illegally in a local conservation area. The situation gets complicated when she discovers that Winfried’s family is responsible. She nevertheless passionately agitates to stop the construction project, even soliciting Winfried to help her create a touched-up photograph of a rare bird as "evidence" that the conservation area is home to an endangered species. When Ulla's deception is discovered, she faces serious consequences.

    Una semana solos / A Week Alone. 2008. HD.
    A handful of children are left to their own devices in this subtle drama from Argentine filmmaker Celina Murga. Maria (Magdalena Capobianco) is a girl in her early teens whose family lives in an upscale gated suburb. Maria's parents are going out of town for a week, and rather than leave her with relatives or hire a babysitter, Maria is put in charge of looking after her little sister Sofia (Eleonora Capobianco), with housekeeper Esther (Natalia Gomez Alarcon) serving as a nominal adult authority figure, though for the most part she lets Maria and the others do what they please. With only their parents bedroom off-limits, Maria and Sofia have the run of the house, and soon they and their friends Facundo (Lucas Del Bo), Quique (Federico Pena), Rodrigo (Ramiro Saludas) and Timmy (Mateo Braun) are spending their days exploring the place. As the kids begin creating their own rules to run counter to the ones their absent parents set down, Esther brings a young relative, Fernando (Gaston Luparo), to play with them, and the privileged kids begin to get a notion of they ways of the outside world. Una Semana Solos (aka A Week Alone) was an official selection at the 2008 Buenos Aires Film Festival.

    CZ. Do dětského domova přichází nová dívka, asi dvanáctiletá Pavla. Snaží se chovat jistě a sebevědomě, ale necítí se v novém kolektivu nejlépe. Dostane se hned do konfliktu se starší vychovatelkou Morávkovou a její vzdor se začne stupňovat. Jediný člověk, ke kterému se Pavla citově přimkne, je mladá vychovatelka Jarmila. Svěří se jí se svou averzí vůči otci - alkoholikovi, pozná, že Jarmilu její trápení zajímá, a proto ji stále vyhledává. Během výletu, na který ji Jarmila vezme, se seznámí s jejím budoucím mužem. Je tím zaskočena a začne na Milana žárlit. Bojuje o Jarmilinu přízeň dětskými zbraněmi, není přístupná logickému vysvětlení, začíná být zlá, nespravedlivá a trucovitá. Chce si za každou cenu vynutit Jarmilinu přízeň jen a jen pro sebe. Onemocní jen proto, aby zjistila, jak na to bude Jarmila reagovat. Ostatní děti ji nezajímají, chce mít citové zázemí v dospělém člověku. V závěru se však přece jen s Jarmilinou svatbou i s jejím odchodem smíří a zvítězí u ní přirozená potřeba být s dětmi a zapojí se do normálního života v dětském kolektivu.
    EN. Pavla (Michaela Kudiackova) has been put in an orphanage, also a home for underprivileged children, while her father is "free" to concentrate on his own life. Pavla develops an unhealthy dependence on her group's housemother, Jarmila (Veronika Freimanova), to the point where she is jealous of Jarmila's fiance -- and has raised the shackles of the forbidding Mrs. Moravek (Anna Ferencova). Finally, Jarmila cannot continue in the role that Pavla has placed on her, and she takes measures to end the dependence, no matter what the outcome.

    DE. Gesellschaftsdrama nach Thomas Mann.
    Ende der 20er-Jahre: Für den Literaten Bernhard Fuhrmann (Julian Sands), seine Frau Rachel (Anna Galiena) und deren Kinder verläuft der Sommerurlaub im pittoresken Torre di Venere alles andere als angenehm. Die Show des Hypnotiseurs Cipolla (Klaus Maria Brandauer) endet in einer Tragödie…Brandauer enttäuscht mit seiner Adaption: Er ignorierte wichtige Passagen und änderte den Schluss.
    EN. Mario and the Magician (German: Mario und der Zauberer) is a 1994 German-language drama film directed by Klaus Maria Brandauer, based on the novel of the same name. It was entered into the 19th Moscow International Film Festival where Lajos Koltai won the Special Silver St. George for the Director of Photography.
    An enigmatic hypnotist casts a spell over a German family holidaying in Italy. Based on an autobiographical novella by Thomas Mann, the film shows the holiday of well-known liberal German writer Bernhard Fuhrmann and his family of three at the Italian seaside resort town, Torre di Venere, in the 1920s. Italian guests want him and his family moved to a different building, because his daughter took off her clothes on the beach and caused a scandal, even though she's only 8 years old.

    Emmanuelle. 1974. FULL-HD.

     

    FR. 8,9 millions de spectateurs en France, plus de 100 millions à travers le monde. Sorti en juin 1974, Emmanuelle. Il est considéré aujourd'hui comme un film culte.
    Comme un porte-bonheur, Emmanuelle est resté à l'affiche de l'UGC Triomphe, sur les Champs-Élysées, treize années durant. « On figurait dans le circuit des tour-opérateurs japonais, entre le Louvre et la tour Eiffel, se souvient Just Jaeckin, son metteur en scène, artiste touche-à-tout, photographe, sculpteur et réalisateur de publicités. Les Espagnols franchissaient même la frontière pour le voir, car il était à l'époque interdit par le régime franquiste. »
    Au fil des mois et malgré les scandales qu'il déclenche, ce long métrage s'impose comme un véritable phénomène de société. « C'était le premier film érotique écrit par une femme (Emmanuelle Arsan), dont le succès a reposé sur les femmes, qui composaient une grande partie de son public », analyse Jaeckin. Au début, pourtant, personne n'y croyait. « Gainsbourg, l'un de mes copains, a refusé d'en faire la musique. C'était une petite production, tournée avec très peu de moyens, mais qui a profité de circonstances favorables : la pilule, la libération sexuelle, l'abolition de la censure avec l'élection de Giscard d'Estaing... »
    « Elle était si belle, si pure. J'aurais pris une fille plus aguicheuse, le film aurait été mort », reconnaît le réalisateur. Le cinéma et la télévision ont exploité le filon, donnant lieu à des suites malheureuses. « De film de cul, il est devenu culte, mais ce n'est pas aujourd'hui que j'aurais voulu l'entendre, déplore-t-il. Je n'oublie pas tout ce qu'on a écrit de virulent à mon sujet à sa sortie. J'ai vécu trois années de black-out total. Je ne vendais plus une seule sculpture, car les collectionneurs estimaient que je les avais trahis. Les journaux ne voulaient plus de mes photos, je ne pouvais plus tourner de publicités. J'étais devenu infréquentable. » À jamais « M. Emmanuelle ».
    EN. Emmanuelle is the first and most infamous of the French softcore-porn series about a young woman's awakening to new sexual dimensions. Sylvia Kristel became a star with her portrayal of Emmanuelle, the suppressed wife of a diplomat. By virtue of her husband's profession, Emmanuelle is introduced to any number of handsome, virile men and beautiful, adventurous women, all more than willing to escort the sheltered young lady to the farthest reaches of sensuality. Nudity and eroticism abounds in Emmanuelle, but the sex scenes are discreetly photographed (shadows and elusive camera angles predominate) to evoke eroticism and suggestiveness in lieu of raunch. As the Emmanuelle series dragged on, the sex became more perfunctory and the storylines overladen with gimmicks; this film is comparatively basic and straightforward. Emmanuelle is based on the allegedly autobiographical book by Emmanuelle Arsan.
    In the first 14 weeks after its released 2 1/2 million Frenchmen stood in line for it.
    Director: Just Jaeckin.
    Cast: Alain Cuny, Sylvia Kristel, Marika Green, Daniel Sarky, Jeanne Colletin, Christine Boisson

    Une glace avec deux boules... / Superbiester! 'Nen Freund zum Geburtstag. 1982. DVD.
    FR. A Carcassonne, de nos jours. Daniel Dalbret (Daniel Sarky), garagiste, quadragénaire cordial mais manquant un peu de caractère, quitte, après 17 ans de vie commune, sa femme Sarah (Sarah Siritzky) au profit d'une jeune et jolie secrétaire de préfecture : Maité (Anne Letourneau). Mais Daniel et Sarah ont deux filles : Vanessa (Désirée Nosbusch), 16 ans et Lolo (Valérie Dumas), 13 ans qui, n'acceptant pas cet abandon, décident de tout mettre en oeuvre pour récupérer leur père. N'ayant pas réussi à convaincre Daniel de son "erreur", elles vont mettre en place une véritable stratégie. C'est une histoire où se révèlent les points de vue des adolescents (avec "leurs" problème et "leurs" solutions) aussi bien que des femmes adultes et où le fou rire et les facéties succèdent aux serrements de coeur et à la peur. A partir d'une situation dramatique et très quotidienne, c'est une comédie douce amère offrant une vue en coupe de la "nouvelle société", avec toutes les surprises que cela implique...

    Mathieu a dix ans, un appareil dentaire et une furieuse envie de s’amuser. Pas toujours facile lorsqu’on vit dans une petite station balnéaire et qu’on est le fils de l’entrepreneur des pompes funèbres. Tout est toujours pareil : l’école, la plage, les enterrements… Mais l’été, tout change avec l’arrivée des vacanciers. La vie de Mathieu s’accélère soudain. Il tombe amoureux de Marie, fait des projets de mariage et s'amuse beaucoup avec ses nouveaux copains. Ensemble, ils vont vivre des moments inoubliables ; certains « hilarants » ; d’autres douloureux. Car, comme dit Marie : « Ce n’est pas toujours très drôle d’être des enfants ».

    Plenilunio / Full Moon / Plenilune. 1999. FULL-HD.
    ES. Plenilunio es una película española producida en 1999, dirigida por Imanol Uribe y estrenada en el año 2000. Está basada en la novela homónima del escritor andaluz Antonio Muñoz Molina.
    En una pequeña ciudad de provincias, una niña aparece muerta en mitad de un bosque. Ha sido brutalmente asesinada. Obsesionado por el espantoso suceso, el inspector de policía a cargo de la investigación, recorre la ciudad buscando una mirada. La mirada del asesino. De la misma forma que sucede en la realidad, un suceso brutal no se acaba en el propio delito, sino que provoca cambios en las personas que están relacionadas con las víctimas y también con el asesino. El hallazgo de la niña muerta es la razón por la que una mujer y un hombre se encuentran, la razón por la que ese hombre reflexiona sobre un pasado oscuro, la razón por la que esa mujer conoce al hombre del que ha de enamorarse.
    EN. A lonely police detective tracks down a crazed child murderer. The movie develops both characters equally well. Most of us would be drawn more to the depiction of the killer as an aberrant type. He is well played as a person lost in his own world, with no friends, selling fresh fish, and drinking alone, unable even to ask for the check at one point, due to his acute inwardness. Our detective discovers the nude body of a young girl in the woods, the work of our killer. Unlike other films of this kind, this one moves (or plods) along at an absorbing pace, giving time for the detective to develop a relationship with an equally lonely school teacher. At one point, while they are making love, the killer is busy with another victim.
    Director: Imanol Uribe.
    Cast: Miguel Ángel Solá, Adriana Ozores, Juan Diego Botto, Fernando Fernán Gómez, Charo López, Chete Lera, María Galiana, Noelia Ortega, Chiqui Fernández, Antonio Muñoz Molina.
