Ancient legends warn children about the Abulele—enormous, furry, and sometimes dangerous monsters who are visible only to those children who need a friend. In this heartfelt family film, Adam, a young boy grieving the loss of his brother, discovers an Abulele living in his building. After sharing a soda (or two), they become close friends. Problems arise when an Israeli Special Force unit arrives to capture the spotted Abulele. Adam, realizing that it is humans who behave like monsters, risks everything to help save his friendly giant.
Clasificada como una de las mejores películas de la historia, la película de Buster Keaton EL GENERAL sigue inspirando asombro y risas con cada visionado. Rechazado por el ejército confederado y tomado por cobarde por su amada Annabelle Lee (Marion Mack), el joven Johnny Gray (Keaton) tiene la oportunidad de redimirse cuando unos espías yanquis le roban su preciada locomotora ("The General"). Johnny libra una guerra en solitario contra secuestradores, un cañón errante y la impredecible mano del destino mientras ruge por los raíles de hierro.
Al leer el título es posible que aplaudas con tu vecina al compás del conocido cántico. Este maravilloso documental explora este rítmico rito de paso, normalmente entre chicas jóvenes, en Estados Unidos y en todo el mundo. Imágenes contemporáneas e históricas se entrelazan creando lo que algunos llaman con admiración "graffiti de manos", "jazz de las calles" y "poesía percusiva". Mientras oscila entre juegos y entrevistas con chicas jóvenes, COJAMOS EL RITMO tiene ritmo; ¡su musicalidad incandescente da vida a este universo de palmas!
Gracias al pacto de no agresión entre Hitler y Stalin, Poltava, Ucrania, en 1941 era todavía un lugar donde florecían los frutos de la civilización, en el caso de los Wunderkinder, la música. Por supuesto, todo eso cambió con la invasión nazi, y el logro de Marcus O. Rosenmüller es evocar aquellos tiempos anteriores y posteriores a la invasión a través de los ojos de tres niños, todos ellos músicos dotados.
La pianista Larissa (Imogen Burell) y las violinistas Abrascha (Elin Kolev) y Hanna (Mathilda Adamik) comparten un gran amor por la música y una amistad basada en la alegría que les producen los constantes descubrimientos: las tres sueñan con tocar algún día en el Carnegie Hall. Cuando los nazis las invaden, las tres -Larissa y Abrascha son judías, Hanna es alemana- ven cómo su amistad se rompe y sus mundos se derrumban sin que ellas tengan la culpa.
Dirigida con cariño como un poema a la inocencia perdida, Wunderkinder no es una "película para niños". Es una película desde la perspectiva de un niño que puede ayudar a algunas familias a hablar sobre la pérdida y la destrucción de la Segunda Guerra Mundial y el horror del Holocausto.
“This letter is for the king… It’s vital to his country and to yours. Now that I can’t take it, you have to do it But beware. Enemies are everywhere.”
When a dying knight speaks these words to Tiuri, pushing a mysterious letter into the adolescent’s hands, the young squire must embark on a dangerous mission to save his kingdom. Though not yet a knight, Tiuri is forced to summon the courage and cunning of a seasoned veteran to complete this quest. Through dark woods and snowy mountains, Tiuri is pursued by thieves, spies and the ruthless Red Riders, all intent on stopping him before he can reach his goal. But by never forgetting the importance of friendship and the value of keeping a promise, Tiuri learns that you don’t need a sword and shield to act with the gallantry of a knight.
Director Pieter Verhoeff brings Tiuri’s quest to the screen in true epic style. The stunning natural settings will transport viewers to a medieval world of clashing swords, daring escapes and horseback chases. Based on the book by Tonke Dragt, “The Letter for the King” is a rich and exciting adventure story that celebrates the power of honesty and friendship.
Enjoy this inside look at the nuts and bolts of Indy racing cars, as large and loud as life. Mario Andretti and his son Michael race in competition with cameras mounted on their cars, capturing the speed and heart-pounding thrills of racing in a way few films have ever attempted. Paul Newman is the narrator, but the stars are the cars. “Super Speedway” and many other experiential films were the first to be shown regularly in IMAX venues.
Magic, fantasy and Celtic mythology come together in a riot of color and detail that dazzle the eyes in this sweeping story about the power of imagination and faith to carry humanity through dark times. To complete a magical illuminated manuscript, young Brendan must overcome his deepest fears on a dangerous quest through an enchanted forest beset by barbarians. Will his determination and artistic vision conquer darkness and show that enlightenment is the best fortification against evil?
There is perhaps no cinematic bond stronger than that of the friendship between a boy and his dog. For this reason, the novel “Belle et Sébastien” by actress and author Cécile Aubry has endured since the 1960s, inspiring several films, television series, and even the name of a Scottish indie music ensemble.
In this latest film adaptation by Nicolas Vanier, the setting has shifted to World War II on the French/Swiss border. Sébastien (Félix Bossuet) lives with his grizzled grandfather in a vertiginous mountain village and crosses paths with a giant, filthy Pyrenean mountain dog the locals call “The Beast” for allegedly killing livestock. Sébastien, however, sees something good in the misunderstood canine and eventually befriends the animal, naming her “Belle.” Their budding friendship is put to the test when Nazi occupiers march into town looking for members of the French Resistance who are guiding Jewish refugees to neighboring Switzerland. With their intimate knowledge of the nooks and crannies of the alpine valleys, Belle and Sébastien help point the way to safety, with the merciless SS officer, Lieutenant Peter, tracking them every step of the way.
Using 35mm film and jaw-dropping scenery from the Haute Maurienne-Vanoise region of France, Belle et Sébastien is a charming homage to the beloved live-action nature films of Disney, but with a pulse-pounding World War II subplot that will enthrall audiences of all ages.
