A twenty-something student murders his girlfriend without any apparent reason, then cuts her into pieces and throws her into a dumpster. A fourteen-year-old girl attacks her mother with a knife just because she was not allowed to use the internet. These crimes presented by the film were very specific and yet undefined, undoubtedly for myriads of reasons that get lost in the mundanity of everyday life.\u00a0Agony<\/em><\/span>\u00a0tells two parallel stories of young men who are forced by adult life to negotiate their dreams and desires with an indifferent world. Can their souls be tainted by evil too? On the one hand, they are very similar: neither has the support of a father figure; neither knows how to vent their sexual tensions. On the other hand, they come from completely different worlds and seem to be driven by entirely different things. This is a film about them, and their generation, as well as \u2013 quite simply \u2013 about the human nature.<\/div>\n

Aloys Adorn is a private detective who has lost his will to live after his father\u2019s death. He tries to fill the existential void with a series of repetitive actions and gestures, as well as a voyeuristic streak that his job demands of him, while living in permanent emotional and physical isolation. But then, one day Aloys unexpectedly meets a woman who wants to change his way of thinking. Well, he meets Vera over the phone when she invites him to participate in a game of imagination called \u2018phone walking\u2019. It goes like this: one person opens the other\u2019s mind through the power of voice and verbal suggestion, thus establishing a connection, devoid of imperfect physicality, which will enable both of them to go on exciting virtual adventures and become better versions of themselves.\u00a0Aloys<\/em><\/span>\u00a0is an innovative drama that poses a series of questions about the limitations of the human psyche and the power of imagination to both build bridges of understanding and walls of ignorance.<\/div>\n

Honza David is a young Czechoslovakian film director who would like to use the power of cinema to lead a charge against the Communist government and promote self-awareness among his peers. The problem is that his films are censored and nobody can legally watch them. Helmut Zilk is a popular Austrian television producer who would like to be the one to bring the latest news from behind the Iron Curtain to viewers in the West, but he begins to collaborate with the Czechoslovakian government and is forced to turn a blind eye. Between them there is a young and alluring actress named Eva. She loves Honza, but at the same time she is tempted by the freedom offered by Helmut. There will be no classic love triangle between them, though \u2013 it is 1968, the Prague Spring is already happening, and the military intervention of the Warsaw Pact is under way.\u00a0Codename Holec<\/em><\/span>\u00a0is a poignant drama of people whose individual dreams and desires were suppressed by the world they could not do anything to change. <\/p>\n

It begins with a brutal murder, and then it only gets more intense. A raving lunatic with a grotesque grin on his face mercilessly slaughters an older woman, who happens to be an immigrant that found asylum for her family in the idyllic American countryside. There is a witness to this heinous crime: the woman\u2019s young daughter, who will never be the same again. Years later, the adult girl lives in seclusion, grieving the recent passing of her dear father and manifesting increasingly psychopathic inclinations. Will she become a monster as cruel as the man who tainted her life forever?\u00a0The Eyes of My Mother<\/em><\/span>\u00a0is a tale of loneliness disturbing the mind and leading to desperation, shot in elegant and expressionistic black and white. Both a drama about a broken human being and a classical horror movie with creepy narrative twists and turns, its suggestive atmosphere builds upon Gothic imagery and melancholic yearning expressed through soulful fado music.<\/div>\n

A tale as uncommon as they come, imaginative and fairylike, though at the same time painfully real. One day at a psychiatric asylum, a magician\u2019s ex-assistant finds herself performing the greatest trick of them all: she gives birth to an invisible son. She names the boy My Angel and decides to keep him a secret to shelter him from the world\u2019s cruelty and lack of understanding. But no child can live long in its parent\u2019s protective bubble, and so My Angel quickly develops a liking for the outside world. There, he meets Madeleine, a blind freckled girl with red hair, beautiful eyes, and a ravishing smile who does not need her sight to love with all of her heart. She does not know the truth about his existence, which is why their relationship is honest, unique, and based on mutual trust and understanding. But there comes a time when Madeleine leaves My Angel to have the surgery that will bring back her sight. Will this change everything? Can love really be unconditional?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
