OVERVIEW
CAPONE
TOM HARDY, LINDA CARDELLINI, NOEL FISHER
Once a ruthless businessman who ruled Chicago with an iron fist, Alfonse Capone was the most infamous and feared gangster of American lore. At the age of 47, following nearly a decade of imprisonment, dementia rots Alfonse’s mind and his past becomes present. Harrowing memories of his violent and brutal origins melt into his waking life. As he spends his final year surrounded by family with the FBI lying in wait, this ailing patriarch struggles to place the memory of the location of millions of dollars he hid away on his property.

THE FAREWELL
AWKWAFINA, SHUZHEN ZHAO, X MAYO, HONG LU, HONG LIN, TZI MA
Billi er født i Kina, men bor i New York. Nå skal hun i et familiebryllup i Changchun. Bryllupet er iscenesatt og bare en unnskyldning for at hele familien skal samles for å se bestemor, Nai-Nai, en aller siste gang. Hun har ikke lenge igjen å leve, men akkurat det får hun ikke vite, fordi familien har bestemt seg for å holde det hemmelig. Forsøket på å gi henne en lykkelig tid forskånet fra bekymringer kommer i konflikt med Billis vestlige verdier. Billi prøver å navigere i et minefelt av forventinger og sosiale koder i Kina, samtidig som hun lærer mye om seg selv og gjenoppdager landet hun ble født i. Med en god løgn i sentrum blir det et humoristisk og rørende møte mellom familie og kulturer.

SERIEFAVORITTEN FRA TV2 ER TILBAKE!
Karl (Nils Vogt) er nyinnflyttet i et borettslag. Han ser frem til livet i den nye leiligheten etter mange år bak seg i samboerskap med Nils og Henry, og gleder seg til å bo alene. Men det kan jo også bli litt ensomt. Det siste trenger han ikke bekymre seg for. Formannen i beboerforeningen Ulf Rasch Ludvigsen (Knut Lystad) er raskt på plass etter at Karl flytter inn i bygningen. Søsteren Vigdis (Minken Fosheim) er skilt, og egentlig ganske usikker når det gjelder menn og kommer stadig dragende på nye kjærester for å få Karls godkjenning. Hans mor (Wenche Foss) har bodd i USA i mange år, men er vendt hjem til gamlelandet etter at mannen døde. Så Karl får kanskje ikke den alentiden han hadde sett for seg likevel. En fargesprakende gjeng fører videre tradisjonen fra den store komisuksessen Mot i brøstet!
