Ex Machina

Trash

Director by Alex Garland Starring Oscar Isaac, Alicia Vikander, Domhnall Gleeson Ex Machina is a dazzling sci-fi thriller in which a young programmer is selected to participate in a breakthrough experiment in artificial intelligence by evaluating the human qualities of a female A.I. A directorial debut for Garland, writer of The Beach and 28 Days Later, Ex Machina is wonderfully seductive sci-fi cinema that will haunt you long after the credits roll.

Directed by Stephen Daldry Starring Rooney Mara, Martin Sheen, Wagner Moura Brazil may still be a place of sunshine and carnival for many Europeans – but Trash shows us the seedy underbelly of a country gripped by poverty. Two boys find a wallet in amongst the daily detritus of their local dump. Only when the local police show up, offering a handsome reward, do the boys realise the importance of their discovery. Written by Richard Curtis, Trash is a film about finding hope in the unlikeliest of places.

When 13-year-old Lili (Psotta) is sent to live with her father Daniel (Zsótér), she takes her dog, Hagen – but Daniel takes the dog out in his car and abandons him in the middle of nowhere.

Director by Ava DuVernay Starring David Oyelowo, Carmen Ejogo, Tim Roth Selma, the chronicle of Martin Luther King’s campaign to secure equal voting rights via an epic march from Selma to Montgomery in 1965, is a civil rights drama with topical resonance.
