Sleeping with Other People
(Sleeping with Other People)
Directed by: Leslye Headland / USA, 2015, 92 min

One crazy night college students Jake and Lainey lose their virginity to each other. When their paths cross twelve years later and they discover they have both become serial cheaters, they realise that a platonic friendship is the only thing that might save them. This romantic comedy, demonstrating to what extent a pact like this is even possible, takes up the reins of the cult romance When Harry Met Sally....

Snow Paths
(Seol haeng)
Directed by: Kim Hee-jung / South Korea, 2015, 100 min

A young alcoholic arrives for treatment at a convent-cum-sanatorium run by nuns. After falling in love with one of them he quickly realizes that the signs of saintliness she evinces betray that she is no ordinary woman. This dark, dramatic, and dreamlike picture was premiered at Korea’s Jeonju IFF.

Stop
(Stop)
Directed by: Kim Ki-duk / South Korea, 2015, 85 min

A young married couple were exposed to radiation during the meltdown at Japan's Fukushima nuclear reactor. The young woman is pregnant and she and her husband must decide whether or not to keep the baby. Their assumption that the child will be disabled is certainly realistic, and they both gradually succumb to madness. Kim Ki-duk’s latest film focuses on a highly topical issue.

Time Out of Mind
(Time Out of Mind)
Directed by: Oren Moverman / USA, 2014, 121 min

The combination of distinctive writer-director Oren Moverman and acting icon Richard Gere led to a powerful evocation of homelessness in contemporary New York. Gere’s subtly shaded, soulful study of a man, whose long-estranged daughter represents the one hope of his desperate existence, is one of last autumn’s most unforgettable performances.

Umrika
(Umrika)
Directed by: Prashant Nair / India, 2015, 102 min

Involving numerous plotlines set in 1980s India, Umrika is a story that attempts to emotively depict the complex business of growing up. At the same time the director demonstrates his inventiveness in incorporating a light-hearted commentary on the Indian myth known as America (Umrika). Winner of the Audience Award at Sundance in 2015.
