| | 1981 |
 1981 is a delightful comedy from rising Quebecois filmmaker Ricardo Trogi. This semi-autobiographical film is a throwback to all things 80s, and the delights of being an eleven-year-old, or at least an eleven-year-old in Quebec 30 years ago. This cheeky coming-of-age tale tells the comedic story of Ricardo, who, struggling with his family’s move and a new school, decides to become a liar... more & buy tickets
| | 3 Idiots |
 There’s a reason why 3 Idiots has become the biggest Bollywood film ever. Actually there’s several. First, there’s a complex and charismatic lead performance by Aamir Khan (who MIFF audiences saw last year in a different Bollywood film, the intense psychological thriller Ghajini), now easily the biggest Bollywood star on the planet... more & buy tickets
| | Alexandra |
 “A Russian matriarch visits her grandson, a soldier, at his desolate camp somewhere in Chechnya. Not much happens during her stay - she interacts with the young recruits and makes friends with a Chechen woman. But in the hands of visionary filmmaker Alexander Sokurov, this simple material makes for a haunting drama about war, generational relationships and the human condition... more & buy tickets
| | Around a Small Mountain (36 vues de Pic Saint Loup) |
 Could this be the final film from Jacques Rivette, the great French New Wave director whose astonishing and unique films—including Celine and Julie Go Boating and The Duchess of Lamgeais—were the feature of a MIFF retrospective several years ago? Now in his 80s, the frail Rivette has often been known for the length of his films—most famously, the legendary 12 hour Out One. But Around a Small Mountain is less than an hour and a half, and feels like a work of consummate yet understated wisdom and charm, a work of distilled essence and understatement, a tale of lost love, chance encounters and the transformative power of art. “Rivette returns to a vintage theme in Around a Small Mountain, which stars Italy’s Sergio Castellitto as a good samaritan who stops to aid a distressed motorist (Jane Birkin), then accompanies her back to the traveling circus where she is returning after a long absence... more & buy tickets
| | Bastards of Utopia (showing with Occupation) |
 “Dramatic proof that the struggle for liberty is irrepressible” said Howard Zinn, author of A People’s History of the United States, of Bastards of Utopia, but it could just as well be said of Occupation, for Maple Razsa’s films, co-directed with Pacho Velez, are indeed about exactly that. In Bastards of Utopia, three Croatian activists struggle to change the world. As children, they lived through the violent collapse of Yugoslavia... more & buy tickets
| | Beetle Queen Conquers Tokyo |
 In Japan, bugs are sold live in vending machines and department stores; plastic replicas are included as prizes in the equivalent of a McDonald’s Happy Meal and are the subject of the No. 1 videogame, MushiKing. From the smallest backyard to the top of Mt... more & buy tickets
| | Bride Flight |
 Eager to escape the damp and suffocating atmosphere of post-war Holland, three young Dutchwomen, Ada, Esther and Marjorie, look forward to a better life in New Zealand. They meet on the immigration flight – the “Bride Flight” – to their new country, where they are to join their fiancés and marry. During the flight, the three women form a bond of friendship among themselves, and with Frank, an attractive young man who wants to set up a winery... more & buy tickets

But when he gets held up in Palestine, he leaves her in the care of an Egyptian friend (Alexander Siddiq) and the two begin falling in love. Cairo Time proved a hit at The Toronto Film Festival, winning over audiences with standing ovations and ultimately taking the Best Canadian Feature Award... more & buy tickets
| | Cattle Camp (showing with Butter) |
 Two views of new cinema in a newly developing part of the cinematic world. Cattle Camp, stunningly shot on locations in the mountain
wilderness of Kyrgyzstan, takes us to a place where only wolves, yaks and some very tough people can survive. Director Alijan Nasirov
brings us into the life of one such family of rugged people, living at one with a version of nature that’s far harsher than the one that we know... more & buy tickets
| | Cell 211 |
 Nominated for no less than 16 Goyas (Spanish Oscar equivalents), this tough as nails, absolutely riveting prison drama won eight, including Best Film of the Year this year. The story of two men on different sides of a prison riot—the inmate leading the rebellion and the young guard trapped in the revolt, who poses as a prisoner in a desperate attempt to survive the ordeal—Cell 211 is a tension-filled drama with complex characters, a tight focus and real integrity. Its Goya winning lead acting performance by Luis Tosar is unforgettable... more & buy tickets
