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.

Still in his samurai clothes he is mistaken for an extra and immediately thrust into the world of jidaigeki productions.

About Thirty. by Shanly, Martín,film director.; Dougall, Camila,actor.; Ezcurra, Julia,actor.; Shanly, Martín,actor.; Merlo, Pedro,actor.; Pragda (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Camila Dougall, Julia Ezcurra, Martín Shanly, Pedro MerloOriginally produced by Pragda in 2023.Buenos Aires in March 2020, just days before the outbreak of the pandemic. A wedding is being celebrated; a car overturns. The guests share joints, kisses, sex, and the memory of a loss. At the center of this comedy of errors is Arturo, who is every bit as drawn to misfortune as he is directionless – qualities he shares with the film's full cast of characters. His faux pas and blunders stand in inverse relation to the finesse with which the film elegantly glides back in time from the wedding day to the 2010s. As episodes from Arturo’s life come to the fore – a bus trip to Patagonia with his trans housemate, a painfully awkward dress rehearsal for a play – narrative time is compressed and extended again, while a voiceover provides a steady counterweight to the tumult. As the hit song "Azúcar amargo” (Bitter Sugar) comes on and the dance floor fills, the bittersweet nature of the film becomes apparent with the same clarity as the coughing that proceeds it.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

The Falling Star. by Abel, Dominique,film director.; Gordon, Fiona,film director.; Romy, Bruno,actor.; Abel, Dominique,actor.; Gordon, Fiona,actor.; Ito, Kaori,actor.; Martz, Philippe,actor.; Kino Lorber (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Bruno Romy, Dominique Abel, Fiona Gordon, Kaori Ito, Philippe MartzOriginally produced by Kino Lorber in 2023.Fiona Gordon and Dominique Abel (The Fairy, Lost in Paris) delight audiences with their blend of slapstick and burlesque. Their latest “crime movie” transmutes the codes of film noir through their characteristically colorful palette and clownish plot twists. Abel plays Boris, a former activist hiding from his dark past, keeping in the shadows as a barkeeper, until a one-armed vigilante finally hunts him down. The fortuitous appearance of a double—the depressive recluse Dom (also played by Abel) seems to offer the perfect decoy. But his tenacious and loopy ex-wife, the private eye Fiona (Gordon), could foil their master plan. Abel and Gordon’s memorable dose of hilarity seems perfectly calibrated to the social mood; each deceptively minimalistic set piece brims with a cinematic intelligence that recalls Tati and Keaton. The cast features Philippe Martz and Bruno Romy and the Japanese dancer Kaori Ito, who plays a willful and hilariously unpredictable femme fatale.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
