แปดวัน แปลกคน / Pad wan plak khon / The 8th Day. 2008.
 Life is a sequence of 7 straight days that rotate repeatedly over and over again without an end. It can be said that this sequence runs as the most loyal mechanic in the universe. Save for a certain period of a life time that this sequence is altered to a new one.
This sudden mal-function in life is never permanent. It all goes back to normal soon before anyone notices. But unfortunately, although life alters briefly and just temporarily, some gets affected by the result it brings forever.
Imagine yourself as an old lady who lived in an old worn-down house. A house that is all you have, your past, your present and your future. Until one day when a little girl entered that house and only another young doctor witnessed it.
That lonely house opened its door to welcome the little girl in and shut down its door to the rest of the world for another eight days.
Those were the eight days that the old lady had complete power over every pulse that kept the house alive and the eight days that the young doctor held, in his hands, the fates of the only two lives in it.
Imagine if one single interruption may change the rest of their lives. Then, what would it be like if, in certain times life starts and ends in only a day... the 8th day.

S přibývajícími kilometry se však blíží nejen cíl, kterým je sto ušlapaných kilometrů, ale také řada osobních rozhodnutí a vyřešení Janových pracovních i osobních vztahů nejen k Crhovi, který jemu a Robertovi nabídl vypracování projektu rehabilitačního sanatoria, aby je pak podrazil a prosadil zcela nevyhovující návrh své milenky, ale také k Elišce, která ho nepřestává svádět a manželce Madle, jejichž vztah má daleko do někdejší idylky.

 Leo, a guy in the seventh grade gets harassed by a two years older boy in school and seeks revenge. At the same time, Ali, the father of a girl in Leo's class (who Leo has a crush on) is contacted by a opposition group from his home country that wants Ali to assassinate an important man for them. Otherwise, they'll kill the family that Ali left when moving to Sweden.
These two stories about morale are connected to each other in Reza Parsa's remarkable debut. The direction is good, the acting is excellent (especially young Emil Odepark in the difficult role as Leo) and the photography is way better than it usually is in the Swedish movie industry.

La discesa di Aclà a Floristella / Acla's Decent Into Floristella. 1992.

Акла / La discesa di Aclà a Floristella / Acla's Decent Into Floristella. 1992.
 Brutal film about the exploitation of a young Italian boy, who is virtually sold to the operators of a sulphur mine where he is beaten and sexually molested.
This is the story of a young adolescent in an Italian mining community, ostensibly (or hopefully) at some time in the past. He is indentured in a traditional apprenticeship system that makes him a virtual slave to his bosses. The inferno-like conditions of sulphur mining, the sexual exploitation resulting from week-long separation of husbands from wives, and the ever-present danger of the mines combine construct a real-life allegory for the dual "open" and "subterranean" levels of human nature. Acla's boyish exuberance, sensitivity and idealism set him fundamentally at odds with his environment. Aurelio Grimaldi's excellent direction ensures you won't know the outcome until the closing credits roll. This is not an easy film to watch: you fill emotionally drained for a long time afterward. Be warned.
Director: Aurelio Grimaldi.

EN. A famed Lithuanian painter expresses the torment of his youth through his paintings. But lately, even his work provides no solace, for he falls into a deep mid-life crises and can find no inspiration. This grim, earnest and arty drama looks back upon his formative years, the joy of which were destroyed by Stalin's policies. The darkness began for him when his father was arrested for being an enemy of the state and sent to a Siberian prison. The boy and his remaining family become social pariahs, and the only way his mother can support them is to prostitute herself to the local police and politicians. Eventually the young painter is sent to the countryside, but even there, he cannot escape the fear and oppression. To cope, he becomes hard and cynical; his mother too changes dramatically and when the father finally returns home, he finds himself among virtual strangers.

Memoirs of a Survivor. 1981.

Memoirs of a Survivor. 1981.
'D' is a chronicler of a society in chaos, who looks down on the marauding gangs, and rubbish-strewn streets from the fortress prison of her flat. Buffeted by inner dreams and longings, D finds an alternative world by stepping through the wall of her flat, like Alice through the Looking Glass. Here it is Victorian England, the bosom of an unsettled family, harbingers, perhaps, of the decay to come. She flits between the two sides of her double life, always observing, never participating, and watches as her protégé, Emily, becomes involved with vagrants' leader Gerald and their efforts to control the violent scavengers fail.
Director: David Gladwell.

L'île atlantique / Atlantic Island. 2003.
 FR. Dans une île de la côte atlantique, des garçons, âgés de sept à quatorze ans, vivent clandestinement une existence autonome. Issus de familles que tout oppose, du fils de maraîcher au fils de notable, leur bande se livre à des chapardages, puis à des cambriolages en règle, avec toutes les conséquences qui s’ensuivent.
Avec Duvert, pour la première fois, peut-être, dans la littérature, on découvre le monde uniquement du point de vue de l’enfant. Les adultes, dans leur comportement le plus intime, restent des parents. Ce récit, d’une écriture aussi claire que maîtrisée, est la fois plein d’humour et de violence.
EN. Several boys aged seven to fourteen, have formed their own secret support group as a result of parental neglect and abuse. The group is however more keen on revenge against the adults on their island. They break into houses and steal items, not for money, more for the thrill. They vandalize homes and torment the occupants. One man decides to seize the opportunity to do away with his wife and blame.
Director: Gérard Mordillat.

Pappa Pellerins dotter. 1974.

Serien handlar om 11-åriga Loella Nilsson, som bor i ett torp i skogen tillsammans med två yngre syskon. Modern arbetar till sjöss halva året, men brukar komma hem på vintrarna. Fadern har hon aldrig träffat.
För att klara tillvaron har Loella två vänner till sin hjälp: skogsmannen Fredrik Olsson och tant Adina. Pappa Pellerin är inte Loellas pappa, utan en fågelskrämma som hon har ställt upp, dels för att skrämma bort främlingar, dels som en plats där de tre vännerna kan lämna saker till varandra.
En dag får Loella ett brev från sin mamma där hon meddelar att hon inte kommer hem den här vintern, då hon fått ett välbetalt arbete i Amerika. Hon förklarar vidare, att hon ordnat så att vänner till henne skall ta hand om småsyskonen, samt att Loella fått en plats på ett upptagningshem för barn. Loella blir mycket besviken och motsätter sig detta till en början, men faller till föga när tant Adina hävdar att ‘det finns en mening med allt’ – något som får Loella att intala sig, att hon kommer att träffa sin pappa om hon följer med in till staden.
Inledningsvis blir vistelsen på barnhemmet och i skolan konfliktfylld, och Loella har svårt att anpassa sig, men efter hand möter hon människor som blir hennes vänner. Sökandet efter fadern tar upp stor del av Loellas tid, och vi får ta del av hennes dagdrömmar om hur hon kommer att möta honom.
