Vincent Georgie: Filmmaker Richard Linklater followed up his massive hit BOYHOOD with another sensitive, human and endearing story of relationships via coming of age on a University campus.

Vincent Georgie: Unfortunately, Michael Moore‘s Oscar-winning film continues to be relevant and topical. It’s 20 years old, but sadly could have been made last week. Revisit it for its power, and its attempt to understand a gun culture that continues to seem incomprehensible.
Synopsis: Political documentary filmmaker Michael Moore explores the circumstances that lead to the 1999 Columbine High School massacre and, more broadly, the proliferation of guns and the high homicide rate in America. In his trademark provocative fashion, Moore accosts Kmart corporate employees and pleads with them to stop selling bullets, investigates why Canada doesn’t have the same excessive rate of gun violence and questions actor Charlton Heston on his support of the National Rifle Association.
Vincent Georgie: This Turkish breakout hit from 2015 was widely received with praise and popularity at festivals around the world. A tale of sisterhood, friendship and community. Discover a gem.

However, prying village eyes view their games with suspicion and the girls’ behaviour, and refusal to repent, quickly causes a scandal among the family.
