Bowman
A cop infiltrates a corrupted party in order to eliminate a "godfather" who is responsible of his old friend's death.
Santos Palace is a coffee shop in Belgium. There, a waitress serves a strange client. Their eyes meet, minutes pass and we seem to witness a love story that hasn’t began or may have already started, with its potential jealousies and passions, or which may never happen at all; another type of romance. The feeling of seeing or being seen, the rhythmical editing, the use of cinemascope to make objects and spaces appear as abstract forms, the predominance of detailed shots: these are all obsessions, forms and audiovisual ideas that explode in this surprising film.
Soldier
Cuando la I Guerra Mundial (1914-1918) se acerca a su fin, para una joven francesa está a punto de comenzar la más cruel de las batallas. Mathilde ha recibido la noticia de que su prometido Manech es uno de los cinco soldados heridos que, tras haber sido sometidos a un consejo de guerra, han sido enviados a la tierra de nadie que hay entre el ejército francés y el alemán, lo cual supone una muerte casi segura. Mathilde, que se niega a aceptar esa situación, emprende un extraordinario viaje para conocer el destino de su prometido. Las noticias que va recibiendo sobre Manech son desalentadoras. Aún así, animada por una fe y una esperanza inquebrantables y también por un gran optimismo, sigue su investigación hasta el final. A medida que se acerca a la verdad sobre los desafortunados soldados y su brutal castigo, se ve más envuelta en los horrores de la guerra y en las marcas indelebles que deja en quienes la han vivido.
Mick
Irreversible. Porque el tiempo lo destruye todo. Porque algunos actos son irreparables. Porque el hombre es un animal. Porque el deseo de venganza es un impulso natural. Porque la mayoría de los crímenes quedan sin castigo. Porque la pérdida del amado destruye como un rayo. Porque el amor es el origen de la vida. Porque toda la historia se escribe con esperma y sangre. Porque las premoniciones no modifican el curso de los acontecimientos. Porque el tiempo lo revela todo: lo mejor y lo peor.
Franck
French novelist Vincent Ravalec made his directorial debut with this French drama about small-time crook Gaston (Yvan Attal) who poses as a millionaire after he picks up hitchhiking 16-year-old Marie-Pierre (Virginie Lanoue). Actually living in a seedy apartment, Gaston deals in stolen goods, but he soon climbs to bigger heists, including car thefts. Concealing his illegal activities, Gaston operates his company, Extramill, out of upscale, posh offices, while he and Marie-Pierre move into a sedate upper-middle-class neighborhood. Life is sweet, but the onset of paranoia, kinky sex activities, and police probes eventually culminate in violence.

Marcel
The Select Hotel is a dead end place for those who do not have enough cash to go somewhere else. The last shelter for those who hang around at night.

Enough to forget for a while the distress of a ruined life and to dream of a more rejoicing elsewhere. Nathalie and her brother Tof struggle against this futureless world. Pierre, a shoe-repairer, troubled by Nathalie's grace will take part for a while to the life of these two children of misery.
