Alita: Battle Angel (16 DLV)
The abandoned Alita is found in the scrapyard of Iron City by Ido, a compassionate cyber-doctor who takes the unconscious cyborg to his clinic. When Alita awakens, she has no memory of who she is, nor any recognition of the world she finds herself in. As Alita learns to navigate her new life and the treacherous streets of Iron City, Ido tries to shield her from her mysterious past while her street-smart new friend, Hugo, offers instead to help trigger her memories. That’s when Alita discovers she has extraordinary fighting abilities that could be used to save the friends and family she’s grown to love. Determined to uncover the truth behind her origin, Alita sets out on a journey that will lead her to take on the injustices of this dark, corrupt world, and discover that one young woman can change the world.
Green Book (13 DLPV)
Cultures clash when a working-class Italian-American from the Bronx becomes the driver for a classically trained pianist on a concert tour of the American South in Green Book. A warm, funny and surprising look at a real-life friendship, Green Book is directed by Peter Farrelly, and stars Oscar-nominee Viggo Mortensen and Oscar-winner Mahershala Ali. It is a warm-hearted and often hilarious road movie about two very different, strong-willed men who break through barriers of race, class and education to form a deep and enduring bond – on the journey of a lifetime. Transcending initial assumptions and stereotypes, the pair’s unlikely alliance demonstrates the life-changing power of tolerance and cross-cultural understanding – two steadfast values that continue to resonate today.
Liewe Lisa (13 DLS)
Daniel holds a secret dream of becoming a writer. In the pursuit of excitement, he finds himself trapped in an illicit affair with the wife of a powerful businessman. Things take another dramatic turn when he falls in love with the same businessman’s daughter. After his mistakes are revealed, he abandons the life set out for him and meets Tom, a simple fisherman who helps Daniel achieve his true potential in life.
