Occupied City

Dir.: Steve McQueen
| 262 minutes

The past collides with our precarious present in Steve McQueen’s epic documentary. McQueen creates two interlocking portraits: a door-to-door excavation of the Nazi occupation and a vivid journey through the last years. What emerges is both devastating and life-affirming.

Once Upon a Time in Algeria

Dir.: Alexandre Arcady

In 1858, in Bologna's Jewish quarter, papal soldiers burst into the home of the Mortara family and take seven-year-old Edgardo, who was secretly baptized by his nanny. His desperate parents embark on a campaign to return him to their custody.

The Zone of Interest

Dir.: Jonathan Glazer
| 106 minutes

The story of Auschwitz commander Rudolf Höss and his wife Hedwig, letting the banality of their lives play out as the horrors of Auschwitz unfold. Beyond this, it is best to know as little as possible about the plot – suffice to say that viewers of the film are in for a powerful, unique, and unforgettable experience.
