Only that which is empty from within rattles.

The arthouse project is based on the famous play of the same name by William Shakespeare. According to the plot, the family sends the main character to a boarding house, where the main actions of the semi-documentary experiment of the eminent director will unfold. The filming, by the way, took place in a real boarding house for the elderly and people with disabilities. The roles were performed by residents of this institution.

Vanya on 42nd Street

Rated 6.7 on TMDB

Film, 1994

An uninterrupted rehearsal of Chekhov's 'Uncle Vanya' plays out by a company of actors. The setting: their run-down theater with an unusable stage and crumbling ceiling. The play is shown act by act with the briefest of breaks to move props or for refreshments. The lack of costumes, real props and scenery is soon forgotten.

What Maisie Knew

Rated 7.1 on TMDB

In New York City, a young girl is caught in the middle of her parents' bitter custody battle.

Rated 6.2 on TMDB

Rebound: The Legend of Earl 'The Goat' Manigault

Rated 7.1 on TMDB

A dramatization of the life of Earl 'The Goat' Manigault (Don Cheadle), with a lot of factual based occurrences. A reformed junkie returns from prison to clean up his act and devote the rest of his life to the young kids of Harlem. 1996 was the 25th anniversary of the first tournament named after him.

Rated 5.8 on TMDB

The action takes place shortly after the end of the Second World War in the Siberian hinterland, among Russians and Germans with damaged personal stories and a strange transformation: the victors seem to be crawling into the skins of the defeated, and vice versa. Ignat, is the embodiment of the larger-than-life image of the Soviet victorious warrior who, in fact, proves to be shell-shocked, sick and broken, although not completely destroyed. Trains become fetish for the heroes of the film, and speed becomes a mania; they virtually become one with their steam engines, while the machines take on human names. The heroes set up an almost fatal race in the Siberian forest, risking their own lives and those of others.

The Carpetbaggers

Rated 6.0 on TMDB

Jonas Cord is a disagreeable young tycoon who's building planes, directing films, and catting around on the corporate make in 1930s Hollywood.
