MEMORIES OF MURDER
SONG KANG-HO, KIM SANG-KYONG, PARK HAE-IL, KIM ROI-HA
BASED ON THE TRUE STORY OF SERIAL KILLINGS Året er 1986. Et lite lokalsamfunn rystes av flere drap. En lokal politimann og en etterforsker fra storbyen blir satt til å etterforske saken. De må ty til desperate og til tider brutale midler. Ryktene om at det kan være en seriemorder sprer seg og et intenst mediefokus gjør ikke saken lettere. Filmen er basert på den sanne historien om Sør-Koreas første seriemorder. Memories of Murder regnes i dag som en moderne klassiker og trekkes ofte fram som en av de beste koreanske filmene noensinne laget. Nå kan du endelig se dette originale mesterverket fra Oscar-vinner Bong Joon-ho, regissøren av Parasitt, på kino.

BARKING DOGS NEVER BITE
SUNG-JAE LEE, DOONA BAE, HO-JUNG KIM, HEE-BONG BYUN
”BEAUTIFULLY DIRECTED, UNSENTIMENTAL AND DARKLY FUNNY.” TIME OUT
En bedagelig anlagt foreleser på universitetet som lever på sin gravide kones lønn sitter hjemme og lurer på hva han må gjøre for å bli professor. Men den konstante bjeffingen fra en liten bikkje et sted i blokka er i ferd med å drive ham til vanvidd. Gjennom de sammenflettede historiene til foreleseren, hans kone, en kjæledyrelskende sekretær og en vaktmester med sans for hundelapskaus, bygger Bong et satirisk mikrokosmos av det koreanske samfunnet. Bak denne blandingen av daglige rutiner, spøkelseshistorier, desillusjonerte karakterer og kjæledyr-redningsdåder, lurer det en skarp sosial analyse.

THE FINAL STAND
THEY FOUGHT FOR MOSCOW
The film tells the story of the Podolsk cadets’ heroic stand outside Moscow in October 1941. Cadets from the Podolsk infantry and artillery schools were sent to the Ilyinsky line of defense, fighting alongside units from the Soviet 43rd Army to hold back the German advance until reinforcements arrived. Hopelessly outnumbered, young men in their teens laid down their lives in a battle lasting almost two weeks to obstruct the far superior German forces advancing towards Moscow. This film is not only about war. It is also about love, true camaraderie, and the path from boyhood to manhood. Around 3,500 cadets and their commanding officers were sent to hold up the last line of defense outside Moscow. Most of them remained there for eternity.

Now a washed-up marshall in the dying town of Silver Rock, he refuses to carry a gun ten years after one of his bullets left his partner paralyzed during a shootout on the Mexican border. Jim is forced to take action when a ruthless biker gang rolls into Silver Rock looking to raise hell. Led by the psychotic Diablo (Devon Sawa), the gang invades Main Street, cuts the phone lines, and takes the entire town hostage. Refusing to touch his gun, Jim is left to use his fists to defend the townspeople against the well-armed bikers. Once a U.S. Marine boxing champ, he picks off the gang one-by-one with the help of his young part-time deputy, Matt. When it becomes clear that Diablo intends to leave no witnesses, Jim is left with no choice but to pick up the gun he hasn’t touched in a decade and to become the hero he was always meant to be.

The story begins when Zu (Kate Hudson), estranged from her family and a lifelong self-saboteur, finds herself the sole guardian of Music (Maddie Ziegler), her teenage halfsister, after the death of their grandmother. Music is nonverbal and on the autism spectrum, and her grandmother has lovingly created a schedule and daily routine to support her with the help of some neighborhood friends. Not having had her grandmother’s experience of loving and caring for Music, Zu instantly struggles with her new responsibility as caretaker. Their less than peaceful first breakfast together is overheard by their neighbor Ebo (Leslie Odom Jr.), a kind and gentle soul who surprises Zu by demonstrating not only his compassion, but his keen understanding of Music. His own, slowly revealed life story, makes him someone Zu can depend on and learn from as well.
