More than revisiting a natural disaster, the film questions how a community endures a real-life apocalypse that collided with its beliefs. The director investigates the invisible traces left by an EF5 tornado in a town accustomed to praying for deliverance, yet unprepared to face devastation as either a response — or a reflection — of its own contradictions. Amid physical ruins and inner turmoil, the disaster reveals what is most fragile in the human condition.

Aboard a past that never existed, a young girl crosses corroded landscapes alongside a silent robot, sifting through the wreckage of a fictional era in search of her missing brother. “The Electric State” reimagines the 1990s as an alternate future already born in decay, blending digital emotions, post-industrial loneliness, and the toxic legacy of major corporations. This isn’t merely science fiction — it’s a visual elegy for what we choose to remember.

More than a romance set against a backdrop of conflict, this drama plunges into the collision between survival and intimacy in a society where loving someone can be a political act. Two young people on opposing sides of an ideological war forge a bond out of urgency, and what grows from that fragile alliance tests not only their beliefs but the very limits of longing — under a system that profits from human despair.

Disguised as an apocalyptic satire, the film leads the viewer through a scathing portrait of a society that has normalized collapse. The comet threat is merely a pretext to expose collective delusion, the erosion of science, and the spectacle of misinformation. With uncomfortable humor, relentless irony, and a tone that borders on desperation, it lays bare the failure of public discourse and the numbness in the face of the obvious.

Blending noir undertones with the tension of top-tier contemporary thrillers, the film marks Grant Singer’s debut in narrative directing with a confident, stylized approach rich in detail. Benicio Del Toro plays a detective surrounded by lies, revenge, and conspiracy, as an investigation unveils far more than a simple murder — leading him into an unstable abyss between paranoia, ethics, and lucidity.

Set on the front lines of World War I, the film revisits Erich Maria Remarque’s novel through an unflinchingly human lens. Rather than glorifying conflict, it exposes the psychological breakdown of young soldiers caught in a senseless spiral of violence. War is portrayed not as an epic, but as a slow erasure of identity — where the loss of innocence proves as devastating as the bombs, and as silent as the fear that shadows them.

As subtle as a crack spreading silently beneath our feet, this psychological thriller guides the viewer through a space where the apocalypse isn’t an event, but an atmosphere. Between technological blackouts and the collapse of mutual trust, the film challenges our ability to distinguish real threat from existential discomfort — exposing just how fragile we’ve become in the face of the unknown.

In the dark corridors of Nazi-occupied Norway, a young student transforms into the mastermind behind the most daring resistance operations. “Nr. 24” retraces the journey of Gunnar Sønsteby, a key figure in the fight against the German regime, exploring his tactical intelligence, calculated coldness, and the inevitable sacrifices that shaped his path. The film delves into the complexity of heroism in times of war.

Amid electrifying chases and unexpected twists, a former spy couple struggles to balance domestic life with a past that refuses to stay buried. Cameron Diaz’s return to the screen, paired with Jamie Foxx’s remarkable resilience, elevates this explosive adventure beyond mere entertainment. Blending action-packed sequences with sharp humor, the film revives the spirit of great spy comedies, keeping audiences engaged from start to finish.

What happens when the foundation of a relationship crumbles under the weight of time and individual choices? In “Let Go”, Josephine Bornebusch examines the dissolution of marriage without resorting to obvious melancholy, painting a sincere and poignant portrait of the struggle to preserve bonds that can no longer hold. Balancing humor and sorrow, the narrative challenges romantic illusions and confronts the burden of societal conventions.
