Emilija

Sunday 28 January 2018 02:00PM

Directed by Donatas Ulvydas| Lithuania| 2018 | Drama |120 min | Language: Lithuanian

Emilia is about the fight for freedom in Soviet-repressed Lithuania – in a society where a more satiated life seems more important than honour, a clear conscience, or humanity. It is the spring of 1972, when young people take to the streets of Kaunas to demand freedom for Lithuania, and Emilia, guarding the greatest secret of her life, is marching with the protesting crowd towards the life of their dreams.

 

The Citizen

Sunday 28 January 2018 5:00PM

Directed by Roland Vranik | Hungary | 2018 | Drama |109 min | Language: Hungarian

The Citizen follows Wilson Ugabe, who, after losing his entire family in Guinea-Bissau to the horrors of war and making the perilous journey to Europe as a political refugee, settles for a sedate life as a security guard in a shopping center. However, Wilson is driven by a quest: to become a model Hungarian citizen and to do so at any cost.

 

Amerika Square

Sunday 28 January 2018 8:00PM

Directed by Yannis Sakaridis | Greece | 2018 | Drama |86 min | Language: Arabic, Greek

Tattoo artist Billy and unemployed Nakos are best friends from Athens. Old bachelor Nakos is racist, obsessed with the victim mentality, and completely frustrated with Greece’s increasing immigrant numbers. Billy, however, is in favour of foreigners coming into the country. They meet in Amerika Square in Athens because of Syrian refugee Tarek.
