While not without its flaws, Capernaum is an important film in its disturbing depiction of the lot of migrants and refugees – especially children – battling to survive in unsupportive countries. Worth seeing for the startling performance of the child lead alone.
Burning is a slow-sputtering chiller of a psychological thriller from acclaimed South Korean auteur Lee Chang-dong. Mesmerising and unique.
Green Book is a beautifully wrought period piece, based on a true story, in which two starkly contrasting Manhattan characters – one black, one white – develop an unlikely friendship during a road trip to America’s segregated Deep South. Terrific entertainment, delivered with a powerful and timely message.
