The problem was, the miners weren’t really eager to accept their help at first. This great premise, which is almost stranger than fiction, is the heart of this brilliant British feel good comedy.

Dope
DIRECTOR: Rick Famuyiwa CAST: Shameik Moore Tony Revolori Kiersey Clemons Malcolm is a nerdy teenager from a rough neighbourhood in Los Angeles.

Beyond the Lights
DIRECTOR: Gina Prince-Bythewood CAST: Gugu Mbatha-Raw Nate Parker Minnie Driver 'Beyond the Lights' is one of those rare, sincere melodrama’s they stopped making since the 1990’s. Vagely reminiscent of 1992 Kevin Costner/Whitney Houston vehicle ‘The Bodyguard’, the films tells the sweeping story of a successful popstar and her destined-to-fail romance with an ambitious young police officer. What makes ‘Beyond the Lights’ stand out, is its flat-out earnestness; there are no obligatory stupid jokes here or ironic pop culture references. Director/writer Gina Prince-Bythewood aims right at the heart. Read more

Inside Out
DIRECTOR: Pete Docter, Ronnie Del Carmen CAST: Amy Poehler Bill Hader Lewis Black 2015’s summer smash hit ‘Inside Out’ is without a doubt the most abstract and philosophical Pixar movie ever made, and yet the most heartwarming and funny one too.

Intouchables
DIRECTOR: Olivier Nakache, Eric Toledano CAST: François Cluzet Omar Sy Anne Le Ny Breaking nearly every box office record there is to break, ‘Intouchables’ is THE feel-good movie of the decade so far. The unlikely bromance between a paralyzed Parisian aristocrat (Francois Cluzet) and his caretaker, a bratty macho from the banlieueu’s (Omar Sy), stole the hearts of even the most cynical cinephiles. The chemistry between Cluzet and Sy is irresistible, the jokes are really funny (for a change) and the script is just flawless. Unparalleled so far this decade. Read more

La La Land
DIRECTOR: Damien Chazelle CAST: Ryan Gosling Emma Stone Rosemarie DeWitt Damien Chazelle’s ‘Whiplash’ gained quite some attention in 2014. Indeed, his depiction of a monomaniac music conservatory student was gripping and his love for music utterly palpable. But who would thought his next feature film would be a classic, escapist, over-the-top-romantic musical? La La Land will make you forget everything dreary and depressing for two hours without a doubt. The love story of an aspiring actress and a struggling jazz musician in Los Angeles is simply too catching too resist. Read more

We Are The Best
DIRECTOR: Lukas Moodysson CAST: Mira Barkhammar Mira Grosin Liv LeMoyne In 1999, Swedish first-time director surprised the international world of cinema with his irresistible lesbian coming of age drama 'Fucking Åmål '. Ever since, Moodysson steadily worked on a resume filled with impressive, yet rather though-to-swallow art house drama’s. We Are the Best! is a return to his old, frivolous style and it’s damn good. Based on a graphic novel written by his wife, it tells the heartwarming story of three young Swedish girls trying to form a punk rock band in 1981. Read more
