Australia, 1970s. The Kelly brothers, Andy (28) and Jimmy (22), have
one great passion: riding big waves. As kids, their mother escaped from
Sydney to Margaret River, a sleepy coastal town with some of the world's
most challenging and dangerous waves. For the next 12 years, the boys
perfected their surfing skills, always searching for the perfect ride.
Free-spirited Jimmy is a gifted surfer and innovator but he starts to
slip toward a life of crime to help the family out of debt. Andy makes a
big decision. Quitting a
stable job, he bets on Jimmy's surf inventions and his own business
skills and launches a backyard surf gear business.
Set in breathtaking locations and inspired by the true story of
Australia's legendary surfwear moguls, the film chronicles the rise of
surf brands and the expansion of the laidback surf attitude as a global
lifestyle. A story of passion and corruption, friendship and loyalty,
deadly addictions and fractured relationships, Drift tells a tale of
courage and the will to survive against all odds.(c) Official Site

Sandra (Seydoux) lives in a small apartment in Paris with her eight-year-old daughter. Her parents have long separated, and Sandra regularly visits her father, Georg (Pascal Greggory), an academic whose health has begun to deteriorate. Whilst she and her strong-willed mother (Nicole Garcia) struggle to agree on finding Georg a safe place to live, Sandra unexpectedly reconnects with an old friend, Clément (Melvil Poupaud). A passionate relationship begins to form, but not without repercussions. Hansen-Løve, so finely observant of the small nuances of human interaction, weaves autobiographical elements into this delicate and heartfelt story of familial and romantic connections, and finding strength against challenging odds. Seydoux is radiant as her lead, bringing tremendous warmth and empathy to her role and the film as a whole. Enthusiastically embraced by both critics and audiences as one of the best films of the 2022 Cannes Film Festival, ONE FINE MORNING is, ...
Based on actual events, this 1916 story is set in a small, tight-knit community in the Scottish Outer Hebrides. Kirsty McLeod (Hermoine Corfield) lives a difficult life in a remote village with her hard-working mother, Mairi (Morven Christie) and her sister, Annie (Ali Fumiko Whitney). Ever since the days of sitting on the beach with her late father, listening to him talk about the world beyond their shore, she has been a dreamer. And while her father may be gone, she still dreams of more than planting potatoes. She wants bigger things but those dreams seem so far out of reach as the outside world is bracing for the First World War, bringing brutality and tragedy. The Road Dance is filmed in an exquisitely realised setting on the Isle of Lewis, from the stone houses with grass covered rooftops to the people who make up the community. They bring an authenticity and character to the film.
