Why watch this film?
In school history books, we learn about the great facts, the great battles, the famous politicians and generals. But human evolution is not just about the big names, but also about all those unknown people who, at some point, fought for what they believed in. What 'A State of Freedom' does is to highlight one of these small stories, more specifically about those who fought for racial equality in Jones County, Mississippi, during the Civil War. Watching this film is, somehow, to value the efforts of those men - and to have a perspective of history that school books will never bring.

Seabiscuit
The Legend of Seabiscuit is one of the most well-known in the history of horse racing and sports in general. With seven Oscar nominations (including Best Picture) and great performances from Tobey Maguire, Jeff Bridges, Chris Cooper, William H. Macy, and Elizabeth Banks, 'Seabiscuit' attempts to be a faithful representation of the facts, although it ultimately is a bit sappy.

The Hunger Games
The dystopian sci-fi literary saga for teens written by Suzanne Collins finds a satisfying film adaptation in the hands of director Gary Ross ("Seabiscuit: Soul of a Hero"). Thematically, "The Hunger Games" is like a "toned down" version of movies like "Battle Royale", but it still manages to be an exciting movie that will keep you on the edge of your seat. The key is Jennifer Lawrence's convincing performance, the role that made her a star.

Ocean's 8
The female version of ‘Ocean’s Eleven’ with an amazing cast: Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, Anne Hathaway, Sarah Paulson, Helena Bonham Carter, Mindy Kaling, singer Rihanna and rapper Awkwafina. Following the premise of the original movie, this powerful team plans a big heist with lots of female empowerment and humor. After all, we rarely get to see so much female talent starring in one movie!

Como el mar
Como el mar is an Argentine film where a young woman, Azul (Zoe Hochbaum), discovers that her supposed older sister (Sofía Gala Castiglione) is actually her biological mother, and the mother who has just died was really her grandmother. Seeking answers about her father, they embark on a journey to Uruguay, where they must transform their bond. This road movie moves at a slow, contemplative pace, focusing more on exploring feelings than events, which may seem too simplistic for those looking for complex dramas. However, it's an emotional film, and the performance of the legendary Carmen Maura (Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown) is definitely worth watching.

My First Film
Many filmmakers spend their lives trying to sustain their creative careers, unaware of their missteps. In My First Film, the debut feature of director Zia Anger (who has created videos for artists like Mitski and Beach House), we see the opposite: a filmmaker who looks back and reconstructs what went wrong in her disastrous first attempt when she was younger. Past and present blend with reality and fiction (featuring artists like Odessa Young), in a film that recreates not just events but emotions. There are many meta and revisionist films, but My First Film is the most fascinating since 2018's Shirkers, at the very least.
