Even Dwarfs Started Small
Location	Date	Tickets
	Herzog's brilliantly bizarre parable about a remote penal colony inhabited by dwarfs, who stage a revolution in the prison warden's absence. This has to be seen to be believed, unmissable.
Filmhouse, Edinburgh	22 May Thu 6.15	0131 228 2688

La Scala Opera: Maria Stuarda
Location	Date	Tickets
	Donizetti's tragic opera based on the lives of Mary Queen of Scots and her cousin Queen Elizabeth I is projected from La Scala stage to the cinema screen.
Filmhouse, Edinburgh	18 May 8.00	0131 228 2688

Operation Filmmaker
Location	Date	Tickets
	Davenport documents the fall from grace of Shi'ite film student Muthana Mohmed. Responding to an appeal made by Muthana on MTV, American director Liev Schreiber charitably took him on as an intern. The student was not, however, the hard-working left-leaning protégé who had spoken so frankly about his dreams of Hollywood, but a spoilt Bush-loving bum.
Filmhouse, Edinburgh	19 May Mon 6.30	0131 228 2688

Reprise
Location	Date	Tickets
	Using a short film of workers returning to work in the Saint Ouen Wonder Factory after the general strike of 1968 as a starting point, Le Roux obsessively tracks down the individuals involved. His furtive documentation provides an intriguing filmic platform for retrospection.
Filmhouse, Edinburgh	18 May Sun 2.00	0131 228 2688

Smart People
Location	Date	Tickets
	Dysfunctional American family comedy that examines the improbable rejuvenation of widowed English professor Lawrence Wetherhold (Quaid). Contemptuous, irascible, narcissistic and detached from his children (Ashton Holmes and Ellen Page), Wetherhold's feckless adopted brother Chuck (Church) and ER doctor Janet Hartigan (Parker) attempts to rescue him from his isolation are scuppered by the lack of chemistry between the two romantic leads.
Filmhouse, Edinburgh	16 May–22 May, 18 May Sun 8.35	0131 228 2688

Welcome to the Sticks
Location	Date	Tickets
	Philippe Abrams (Merad) is sent to the town of Bergues, in the far, far north where apparently it's cold, the people are basic and they talk in an incomprehensible dialect (Ch'ti). Predictably, Bergues is not so bad. Surprisingly this middle-of-the-road farce is the most successful French movie of all time.
Filmhouse, Edinburgh	16 May–22 May, 18 May–22 May Sun 3.00; Thu 6.00	0131 228 2688

XXY
Location	Date	Tickets
	15-year old Alex (Efron) possesses both male and female sexual organs. Raised as a girl, her liberal parents (Darin and Bertuccelli) eventually face the question of what is to be done with a girl/boy like Alex. Puenzo's directorial debut is a slow, challenging but ultimately satisfying chamber piece that examines compromise and conformity against the domestic idyll. Recommended.
Filmhouse, Edinburgh	16 May–22 May Fri & Sat 2.00, 4.00, 6.30 & 8.50; Sun 6.30 & 8.50; Mon & Thu 3.30 & 8.50; Tue 3.30, 6.00 & 8.50; Wed 3.30, 6.30 & 8.50	0131 228 2688
