 Das SommerhausYear: 2014 Country: Germany Actors and Actresses: Jaspar Fuld, Nina Splettstößer Review: The Larsens are a picture perfect family from the German upper-middle class. They have everything that means comfort and should mean happiness. Business success, a stylish, light-flooded home and a full scholarship for their daughter to study in England. However, the head of the family, Markus, an architect, lives a secret, bisexual double life as his wife Christine and their eleven-year-old daughter Elisabeth drown in unendurable loneliness. Markus realizes that he has a strong yearning for one of his daughter's school friends, Johannes, 12, also the son of his tax penalty-bedeviled business partner, Christopher. He succeeds in getting closer to Johannes and binds the boy to himself with ever-increasing intensity. His wife is desperately aware of the emotional distance of her husband, but only her daughter Elizabeth, reacting to the sexually laden atmosphere, sees through the lies and secrets that she instinctively knows to be an growing, disruptive threat to the entire family. As Markus loses control of the situation and in a final moment of strength, pushes Johannes away, the action nevertheless moves them all remorselessly into the abyss. - IMDb Movie added at: 21.12.2022 |

 PaisitoYear: 2008 Country: Uruguay, Spain, Argentina Actors and Actresses: Pablo Arnoletti, Pía Rodríguez, Antonella Aquistapache Review: Paisito is a story about children's love that was lost during Uruguay's dictatorship. Not knowing that fate will separate them, the children swear eternal love. After being dragged away by their families, the young people meet up again in Pamplona 20 years later. Xabi is a footballer who was born in Uruguay and is the son of exiled Spanish republicans who arrives in the Navarrese capital after being signed up by Osasuna. Here his past catches up with him in the shape of young Rosana, the daughter of Montevideo's police chief. The director aims to look at one of the most painful moments in Uruguayan history following the 1973 military coup. She does so in this love story that represents the first film about dictatorships from the point of view of those who were caught up in the midst of it but didn't get involved.

 Otra vuelta de tuercaYear: 1985 Country: Spain Actors and Actresses: Asier Hernández, Cristina Goyanes Review: In an amateurish film loosely based on the Henry James novel, the setting of the ghost story is switched from Sussex to the Basque-dominated provinces of Spain, and the governess who battles the two ghosts' desire to control the children in her care is changed into tutor Roberto (Pedro Maria Sanchez), with implied homosexual leanings. He fights the ghosts, the drama proceeds according to the outlines of James' novel, but missing is the eerie mystery, the feeling of wonder and suspense at what will happen next and in its place is a story with dialogue far short of James' prose. - www.allmovie.com Movie added at: 18.12.2022 |
