Reda Kateb, Cécile de France, Bea Palya, Bimbam Mestein, Gabriel Mireté.Django is a powerful biopic focusing on the life of legendary Romani jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt. Reinhardt, elegantly interpreted by Reda Kateb (A Prophet, Zero Dark Thirty), is the toast of 1943 Paris, thrilling audiences with his distinctive brand of hot jazz and charming his admirers including his muse played by Cécile de France (Hereafter, Chinese Puzzle). But even as the rise of Nazism forces Reinhardt whose music is considered degenerate under the Third Reich to make a daring escape from Paris, he refuses to be silenced as his music becomes a form of protest. Reda Kateb s performance is simply impressive and will certainly please all fans of Django. A spirited biopic that will keep audiences on their tapping toes.Canadian Home Video Rating: PG.DVD.

Her family watches her discover friends, new love and a passion for the theater, all the while without her realizing that time is running out. Legendary French actress Sandrine Kiberlain makes her directorial debut with this allegorical coming-of-age drama set in Nazi-occupied France, that is in turns enchanting and devastating, anchored by a star-making lead performance by Marder "which more than delivers on the luminous promise of the English title" (Screen Daily). A RADIANT GIRL shows us both the dangers of complacency in the face of fascism, as well as the moments of beauty that are possible even under the hardest of circumstances.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

- Visitors from the Arkana Galaxy. by Vukotic, Dusan,film director.; Samardzic, Ljubisa,actor.; Zulová, Lucie,actor.; Potocnjak, Zarko,actor.; Deaf Crocodile Films (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Ljubisa Samardzic, Lucie Zulová, Zarko PotocnjakOriginally produced by Deaf Crocodile Films in 1981.Imagine if Troma Films had been hired to make a Sid & Marty Krofft Saturday morning kids’ show, and if you have some idea of the unspeakable strangeness of VISITORS FROM THE ARKANA GALAXY, a truly gonzo Croatian sci-fi / fantasy about a struggling writer, Robert (Zarko Potocnjak), who dreams up a story of gold-skinned alien androids named Andra, Targo and Ulu from a distant planet. Incredibly, his fictional alien creations become reality, causing chaos in his relationship with his girlfriend Biba (Lucie Zulová) and threatening his small seaside village. The alluring lead robot Andra (Ksenia Prohaska) looks like H.R. Giger re-designed the Maschinenmensch from Fritz Lang’s Metropolis; watch for the scene where she pours hot coffee and cream out of her fingertips. But for sheer jawdropping insanity, nothing rivals the Mumu Monster -- created for the film by legendary Czech animator Jan Svankmajer -- a rubber-suited, multi-tentacled creation that destroys a wedding party, ripping off heads and spouting plumes of toxic green smoke while a blind accordion player blithely plays his squeezebox. Visitors was a rare feature film from animator Dusan Vukotic (1927-1998), best known for his stunning UPA-style cartoon shorts including “Cow On The Moon” (1959) and the Oscar-winning “The Substitute” (1961).Mode of access: World Wide Web.
