The Czech romantic comedy hit “Love is Love” tells the story of Maruska, a blind girl and student at the Conservatory of Music who dreams of love and having a family despite her blindness. Her dream guy has curly blonde hair and blue eyes but she ends up falling in love with the dark eyed, swarthy Marek. Maruska lives with her overly protective grandfather whom is preocupied with his long-lost love. Maruska’s neighbor and best friend is constantly struggling with his headstrong mother as she refuses to accept that her son is gay. She blames everyone else - even her husband - for her son's "deviation." The fate of all main characters is unexpectedly intertwined and told through humorous and touching situations laced with subtle irony and hyperbole. Just as in life, with its funny situations and difficult tests, unexpected revelations and surprising twists, all characters will experience times when they behave blindly and forget to listen to their hearts.
Riviera italiana, finales del año 1942. Un grupo de soldados alemanes goza de unos días de descanso antes de acudir al frente ruso para combatir en Stalingrado. El conflicto será tan sangriento que minará sus fuerzas y su moral. Una de las producciones más costosas del cine alemán de los últimos años, realizada con motivo del 50º aniversario de la conocida batalla. Su director, Joseph Vilsmaier ("Leche de otoño"), realiza un análisis psicológico de los cuatro soldados protagonistas. Todo sirve a Vilsmaier para denunciar la crueldad de la guerra. A destacar también las escenas de batalla, sin duda las más crudas de la historia del género hasta que llegó "Salvar al soldado Ryan".
