The winner of this year's OEil d'Or (Golden Eye) award at Cannes, this intriguing film portrays the hopeful spirit of the youth movement calling for urgent social change in India. Director Payal Kapadia weaves a narrative from the correspondence between two university students, L and K, whose romance is thwarted by the archaic caste system. Featuring images from her time at film school, the documentary immerses us in student life and the huge personal and political shifts that it engenders. When desire crumbles into disillusionment, and when the joyful energy of the protests is crushed by repressive force, L's revolutionary spirit stands in stark contrast to K's conformism. A tale of love and rebellion that deftly conveys the passion, vitality, and boldness of youth. - RIDM

Holiday movies are sentimental and uplifting, but surprisingly devoid of knife murders. BLACK CHRISTMAS-one of the most influential Hitchcockian slashers of all time-is here to help. When sorority sisters Olivia Hussey, Margot Kidder (SUPERMAN), and Andrea Martin find themselves under attack from a foul-mouthed killer, it's up to police chief John Saxon (A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET) to even the odds. But what about Keir Dullea (2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY), the brooding art-school pianist? Could he have something to do with the mutilation rampage? BLACK CHRISTMAS is a terrifying and demented holiday tradition that gets everything right. We'd expect nothing less from Bob Clark, the pioneering director of A CHRISTMAS STORY.
