The Blue Angel
Date Location
Berlin's decadent cabaret era is vibrantly brought to life as Dietrich's voluptuous singer Lola-Lola sets out to seduce and destroy a bourgeois schoolteacher. In her first major role, the actress taps into a potent current of female sexuality.
30 Jul Wed 6.00 Filmhouse, Edinburgh
Caramel
Date Location
Charming, bitter-sweet debut feature from writer-director Labaki that centres upon the 'Si Belle' beauty parlour in the Lebanese capital and the dramas of the female clientele. The film is impressively acted by a mostly non-professional cast. While there are no references to the on-going strife in Lebanon, this is still a political film, and a tender tribute to female solidarity.
30 Jul Wed 1.30 & 7.30 Falkirk Town Hall, Falkirk
Himalaya
Date Location
In the high mountains of the Himalayas, a village prepares for the annual yak caravan to market. However, the young chieftain has been killed and the old clan head refuses to recognise the hot-headed Karma as his successor. A worthy insight into the lives of a hardy people. The landscape is breathtakingly shot, and the attention to local detail feels authentic. The plot has less going for it, being at heart a fairly hackneyed story of an heir to the throne having to prove he is worthy of the…

The Kite Runner
Date Location
Gripping and moving adaptation of the novel by Khaled Hosseini, about two boys whose ordinary lives become caught up in Afghanistan's tumultuous politics. Spanning three decades and two continents, 'The Kite Runner' is a saga of guilt, regret and redemption. As a meditation on Afghanistan, it will always have to stand in line with Siddiq Barmak's disturbing 'Osama' and Samira Makhmalbaf's 'At Five in the Afternoon', but that is fine company to keep.
9 Sep 8.00 Wynd Theatre, Melrose
Let's Get Lost
Date Location
Weber fashions a highly unconventional documentary that follows trumpeter Chet Baker from the West to the East coast of America and on to Europe. There's little in the way of interviews with Baker in the film. Instead, Weber films Baker, prematurely aged by narcotics, hanging out in various breezy venues. A dreamy portrait of a superb but doomed musician.

Money Hai Toh Honey Hai
Date Location
Bollywood musical comedy about six strangers who are informed they have won shares in a company.
25 Jul31 Jul 4.45 & 8.30 Odeon At The Quay, Glasgow
Un Secret
Date Location
Miller revisits France's traumatic experiences under German Occupation during World War Two in this polished and suspenseful melodrama. 'Un Secret' begins in the mid-1980s, with the psychologist François (Amalric) worried by his father's sudden disappearance. As a series of intricately laid family secrets then unravel, the emphasis is heavily placed on the individual's subjective experience and memory of history.
