City Of God
Date Location
The international resurgence of Latin American cinema shows no signs of slowing down. Following 'Central Station', 'Amores Perros', 'Y Tu Mama Tambien' and 'Nine Queens' comes an exhilarating Brazilian drama, 'City of God'. Based on Paulo Lins's sprawling novel and spanning three decades, it's an epic account of the growth of organised drug-dealing in a slum housing project, the so-called City of God in Rio de Janeiro.
31 Aug 7.00 ACE, 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.
31 Aug Sun 7.30 Adam Smith Theatre, Kirkcaldy
Chamku
Date Location
Hindi political thriller about a secret agent trying to extriciate himself and live a normal life.

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.

The Orphanage (Double Bill with Pan's Labyrinth)
Date Location
First-time director Bayona and producer Guillermo del Toro create the best ghost story of the year so far. Laura (Rueda) was raised in an orphanage and on returning to her childhood home with her son Simon (Princep) things start to get creepy. The key to the success of this film is the edge-of-the-seat suspense, and there's even a brilliant sting in the tale.
