Geremia, an aging tailor/money lender, is a repulsive, mean, stingy man who lives alone in his shabby house with his scornful, bedridden mother. He has a morbid, obsessive relationship with money and he uses it to insinuate himself into other people's affairs, pretending to be the "family friend". One day he is asked by a man to lend him money for the wedding of Rosalba, his daughter. Geremia falls in love at first sight with the bewitching creature and and soon indulges in a "beauty and the beast" relationship...

LINK TO VIEWING: vimeo. doblado en castellano (gratis) vimeo. w/ subtitles in English (small fee) Promises  is a 2001  documentary film  that examines the  Israeli–Palestinian conflict  from the perspectives of seven children living in the Palestinian communities in the  West Bank  and Israeli neighborhoods of  Jerusalem .  Promises  has been shown at many film festivals and received excellent reviews and many accolades. The film follows Israeli-American filmmaker  B.Z. Goldberg  as he meets with seven Palestinian and Israeli children between the ages of nine and thirteen, seeing the Middle East conflict through their eyes. It allows "ordinary" kids to develop natural bonds of affection by simply playing games with each other - bonds which go beyond the clutter of  prejudices  that they have heard from their parents and others around them.

ENLACE AL STREAMING: caducado * disponible en  https://www.cinematropical.com/everything-else EVERYTHING ELSE / TODO LO DEMÁS A film by Natalia Almada (Mexico, 2016, 72 min. In Spanish with English subtitles) Selected as one of the best films of the year (Amy Taubin,  Artforum ), and winner of the Golden Gate Award for Best Film at the San Francisco Film Festival,  Everything Else  stars Academy Award–nominated actress Adriana Barraza ( Amores Perros ,  Babel ) as Doña Flor, a 63-year-old bureaucrat living in Mexico City. Natalia Almada's debut fiction film explores the interior life of Doña Flor as she awakens from her bureaucratic malaise and yearns to become visible again.

Highly recommended as an exercise in empathy and the poetics of minimalist cinema. Yet, t...

22.04 @ 22h / Saken (2012, Sandra Madi)

LINK TO STREAMING:  https://www.aflamuna.online/#saken  (Available until April 22) *In Arabic, subtitles in English. In the 1970's the Palestinian Revolution which was based in Lebanon, was fighting for the freedom of Palestine. In 1980 a young 18-year-old Palestinian fighter called Ibrahim Salameh left his family in Kuwait to join that revolution. Two years after joining the fighters in Lebanon, Ibrahim was shot while on duty leading to his paralysis, ending his dream of being part of the revolution.  Saken is a film about this fighter and his caretaker Walid. Walid, an Egyptian man who came to Jordan to find work, was unaware that his path would cross with Ibrahim’s, and that together they would experience one of the strongest bonds two human beings could share. Saken is a film about friendship and sacrifice, how some people’s destinies are linked and hard to be broken.
