Paris/Sexy
Ivan
Greer is a girl on the cusp of womanhood. Like some curious fabled creature she lives in a remote, rundown woodland farmhouse with her Dad, Ivan, a former gamekeeper whose mind has been ravaged by chronic mental illness. Father and daughter are suspected and ostracized by the nearby village. Greer spends her working days tending to elderly, failing residents of the local care-home and the rest of her time looking after her dad. But despite her loving devotion to Ivan, Greer imagines life beyond the narrow confines of her own and is troubled by the heavy burden she bears. Greer romanticises about a life lived in colour. The impossibly glamorous Francoise and Seamus crash into the care-home to visit his mother. Greer is entranced. They seem to epitomize everything she's dreamt of: beauty, success, sophistication and access to the world in all its glory. She attaches herself to them, flattered by their awareness of her and enraptured by the atmosphere of decadence they inhabit.

Gangs of New York
Satan's Circus Singer
New York City, 1863. Antes de la ciudad que conocemos hoy, llena de riqueza, poder y sueños infinitos, New York era un lugar diferente, una ciudad naciente donde el deseo por una vida mejor enfurecía a su gente y generaba violencia en las calles. Mientras la superviviencia del país se debatía en la Guerra Civil, un vasto y peligroso grupo de personas crecía en el bajo mundo. Pero en la joven y naciente ciudad, llegaba el momento de luchar contra los despiadados, contra la intolerancia y el miedo. Había llegado el momento del extraordinario valor de aquellos que impulsaron al borde de la lucha la libertad de futuras generaciones.
