The movie

.

But there are many more options in a billboard that is renewed with dramas, a horror film, documentaries and a children's film.

HOPE

Tomas (

Stellan Skarsgard

,

Mamma Mia! The Movie

) and Anja (

Andrea Bræin Hovig

,

Watch

Out

for Kids

) are a couple and have been together for many years.

They are not going through their best moment and the relationship is no longer what it was.

But everything changes when

Anja is diagnosed with brain cancer

and the doctors announce that she only has a few

months to live

.

From there, both will change their way of acting not only with each other, but with those around them.

It is one of the

favorite

films

to be among the nominees for the Oscar

for Best Foreign Film.

THE CURSE OF LAKE MANOR

Many scares and a suffocating atmosphere are the main claims presented by this

Italian horror film set in a mansion.

There, a child with mobility problems lives with his mother, who is forbidden to leave.

After the arrival of a maid, we learn the true intentions of the mother, as well as how

the boy begins to discover other realities that he did not know

.

Roberto de Feo, the director of the film, has acknowledged having in his mind tapes such as

Los otros

, by Alejandro Amenábar, or

El bosque

, by M. Night Shyamalan, as visual references when filming this work.

THE PERSIAN TEACHER

At the

Seville Festival he won the Audience Award

.

And it obtained very good critics as it passed through the Berlin Festival and the Valladolid Seminci.

With those credentials a drama co-produced by Russia, Germany and Belarus that is based on real events is presented.

In the middle of World War II,

a Jew is arrested in France by the SS

.

To escape death and be taken to a German concentration camp, the protagonist of the story invents

that he is Persian.

A lie that will become your only guarantee

to stay alive and, at the same time, a nightmare when an officer asks you to teach him their language.

OTHER RELEASES

The documentary

FELLINI DE LOS ESPÍRITUS

is one of the best tributes that could have been paid to the Italian director and screenwriter.

In a didactic and highly entertaining way, this production reviews the work of the creator of jewels such as

La Strada

,

Roma

or

Amarcord,

emphasizing the relationship that Fellini had with the supernatural.

The Belgian production

BIRDSONG

proposes a mystery story set in Tokyo with a girl who tries to succeed through deception.

The little ones have

WITCH HUNTERS

, a Serbian film whose plot revolves around a boy with partial cerebral palsy whose life will be changed by a girl.

VOCES ROTAS

is a fiction directed by Héctor Fáver about a failed film director and a woman in the midst of a marriage crisis.

And finally,

A LIGHT IN THE DARK

, a documentary that talks about what education is like in the most disadvantaged countries.
