This is the true-life story of Stephen Hawking and his wife of
many years Jane Wilde, a brilliant couple who fall in love while
studying at Cambridge University. Generally considered to be
one of the world’s sharpest scientific minds, even Hawking
could not know the irrevocable turn his life would take when
he started to display signs of Motor Neurone Disease. This
astounding tale of two extraordinary people in the face of
stacked odds comes from director James Marsh (Man on Wire,
Shadow Dancer) and has already seen Eddie Redmayne win a
Best Actor nod from both the British and American Academy
Awards.
Based on the memoir Travelling to Infinity: My Life with Stephen,
by Jane Hawking
Contains moderate violence, threat, bloody moments.

This is a curious, witty and
humorous peek behind the
scenes at a world-famous
cultural institution. Director
Johannes Holzhausen and his
team spent more than two
years gathering material at the
Kunsthistorisches Museum in
Vienna. Shot in the attentive
style of direct cinema – with
no off-screen commentary, no
interviews and no background
music – the film observes the
various processes involved
in creating a perfect setting
for art. From the managing
director to the cleaning
services team, from the carriers
to the art historians, the staff
members at the museum are
all interdependent cogs in the
same machine.

The outrageous but true
story of one of the most epic
art frauds in history. In the
1960s, painter Walter Keane
had reached success beyond
belief, revolutionizing the
commercialization of popular
art with enigmatic paintings of
waifs with big eyes. The bizarre
and shocking truth would
eventually be discovered that
Walter’s works were actually
created by his wife Margaret.
The Keanes, it seemed, had
been living a colossal lie that
had fooled the entire world.
A modern twist on several
beloved fairy tales,
intertwining the plots of
a few choice stories and
exploring the consequences
of the characters' wishes
and quests. A humorous and
heartfelt musical that follows
the classic tales of Cinderella,
Little Red Riding Hood,
Jack and the Beanstalk and
Rapunzel. James Corden and
Emily Blunt lead the action
through these stories as the
Baker and his Wife and always
beneath the shadow of Meryl
Streep's Witch.
Olympic Gold Medal-winning
wrestler Mark Schultz is
struggling in obscurity and
poverty in Wisconsin when
he is invited by wealthy heir
John du Pont to move on to his
lavish estate to form a team
and to train for the 1988 Seoul
Olympics. The dynamic between
Schultz and du Pont deepens as
Mark embraces his benefactor
as a father figure. But du Pont's
mercurial personality and
psychological gameplay begins
to weigh heavily on Mark's
shaky self-esteem, undermining
his abilities on the mat. When
du Pont's favoritism shifts to
brother Dave - who possesses
the authority and confidence
both he and Mark lack - the trio
is propelled towards a tragedy
no one could have foreseen.

A homeless drifter discovers a
reason for the ever-widening
gap between the rich and
the poor: a conspiracy by
non-human aliens who have
infiltrated American society in
the guise of wealthy yuppies.
They Live is a paranoid thriller
that stretches a paper-thin
budget with inventive special
effects that serve the story
and a message that still holds
water today.
Charting events within a oneteacher village school over the
course of one academic year,
Être et Avoir is a fascinating,
and at times moving, study of
primary education in a French
rural community.
Shot in 39 days over the
course of 12 years, Boyhood
is an epic about the ordinary:
growing up, the banality of
family life, and forging an
identity seen through the eyes
of a child named Mason, who
literally grows up on screen
before our eyes.
This dark and stylized film
based on the graphic novel by
Alan Moore takes place in an
alternate vision of Britain in
which a corrupt and abusive
totalitarian government has
risen to complete power. V, a
mysterious radical anarchist
wearing a Guy Fawkes
costume, works to bring down
the government, profoundly
affecting the people he
encounters.

dangerous tunnels, to dig out the minerals that end up in our
precious mobile technology.

This a fascinating feature-length documentary about the work
of feminist, politician, activist and academic Marilyn Waring, a
principal founder of the discipline of feminist economics. Marilyn
Waring uses “the art of the dumb question” to discover, and
then demonstrate, that the principles of economics have little
to do with the real world costs and benefits of production and
consumption. If you’ve ever wondered why things don’t seem
better when the GDP is up, you’ll now understand. The film also
depicts her efforts to put the spotlight on the unpaid labour of
women around the world, the obscenity of military spending,
and the importance of environmental preservation.

Tony Benn, the longest serving
Labour MP in history, is also,
arguably, the most popular
UK politician of all time. For
the first time ever through
intimate, quasi confessional
interviews and his personal,
photographic and film archive
‘Will And Testament’ reveals
a very human face behind the
political mask.
A Parisian secretary who, two
weeks before her summer
holiday, is let down by the
friend she was planning to go
away with. Desperate not to
be left on her own in Paris, she
sets about looking for another
way to spend her much longed
for break - but nothing feels
right, and she feels increasingly
lonely and unhappy.
This documentary is an
exclusive and deeply personal
look at the life of a national
treasure, a frank, candid and
sometimes painful exploration
of the great themes of life
that affected him and affect
us all, love, loss, hopes,
dreams, fears and death.
During her travels, she overhears
a tourist talking about the ‘green
ray’, described in a novel of
1882 by Jules Verne. Sometimes
glimpsed at sunset, this magical
light is said to enable people
to read their own feelings and
those of others too ...

Jake Gyllenhaal gives another
dark turn in this dual-edged
performance thriller. A history
professor is bored by his
repetitive and often dull life
- until the day he spots his
doppelganger on television
and decides to track him
down. When the men finally
meet, their lives become
bizarrely and irrevocably
intertwined.
Seventeen talented Australian
directors from diverse artistic
disciplines each create a chapter
of the hauntingly beautiful
novel by multi award-winning
author Tim Winton. The linking
and overlapping stories explore
the extraordinary turning
points in ordinary people’s
lives in a stunning portrait of
a small coastal community. As
characters face second thoughts
and regret, relationships
irretrievably alter, resolves
are made or broken, and lives
change direction forever.
Fifty Shades of Grey is the hotly
anticipated film adaptation of
the bestselling book that has
become a global phenomenon.
Since its release, the “Fifty
Shades” trilogy has been
translated into 51 languages
worldwide and sold more than
100 million copies - making it
one of the biggest and fastestselling book series ever.

Voting Rights Act of 1965. Director Ava DuVernay’s film
tells the real story of how the
revered leader and visionary
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and
his brothers and sisters in the

Berlin, the Romantic Era.
Young poet Heinrich wishes
to conquer the inevitability
of death through love, yet
is unable to convince his
sceptical cousin Marie to join
him in a suicide pact.
While coming to terms
with this refusal, Heinrich
meets Henriette, the wife
of a business acquaintance.
Heinrich's subsequent offer
to the beguiling young
woman at first holds scant
appeal, that is until Henriette
discovers she is suffering
from a terminal illness. Amour
Fou is a "romantic comedy"
based loosely on the suicide
of the poet Henrich von Kleist
in 1811.
Kumiko works a dead-end job in a soulless Japanese
corporation. At night she watches a VHS of Fargo, her eyes fixed
on the epigraph of the Coen brothers' film: “This is a true story.”
When her life begins to spiral out of control, she embarks on a
journey that leads her to a snowy Minnesota field, where she
believes she will find the briefcase filled with money.
Contains occasional bloody images.
