 Angèle (Hesme) starts a relationship with fisherman Tony (Gadebois) as a result of a personal ad; it seems doomed from the start, but a connection of sorts develops. Hesme and Gadebois are very good in Delaporte's debut feature, a beguiling and slow-moving story set in a remote Normandy fishing village.View full details |

 Katherine (Schneider) is a novelist living in Glasgow who's been diagnosed with a terminal disease; Roddy (Keitel) befriends her, but unknown to her he works for a TV company with its own agenda. The basic idea is amazingly prescient but the plot is rather preposterous; Schneider's moving performance anchors it in emotional reality.View full details |

| Younes (Rahim) is a young Algerian working in WW II Paris when the Germans enter; the authorities give him the choice between prison, or spying on a mosque suspected of smuggling out Jews disguised as Muslims. Ferroukhi's film is worthy, but lacks dramatic tension and a properly fleshed-out protagonist. View full details |

| Sprawling ensemble drama about the daily routines of a Child Protection Unit of the Paris police. There are strong performances and writer/director Maiwenn conveys a powerful sense of naturalism – except for her credibility-stretching decision to cast herself as a glamorous civilian photographer who gets involved with a cop.

| In 18th century Denmark, Johann Struensee (Mikkelsen) becomes personal physician to King Christian VII (Folsgaard); but then the unhappily married Queen Caroline (Vikander) starts cavorting with the doctor. The script is enjoyably literate and it's a welcome break from morbid Scandinavian thrillers, but the cast lacks chemistry. View full details |
