Although living a comfortable life in Salon-de-Provence, a charming town in the South of France, Julie (Zoé Félix) has been feeling depressed for a while.

Leaving his child and wife behind, the crucified man leaves for his frightening destination, a dreadfully cold place inhabited by hard-drinking, unemployed rednecks, speaking an incomprehensible dialect called Ch'ti. Philippe soon realizes that all these ideas were nothing but prejudices and that Bergues is not synonymous with hell... -
Shady (2012)Kashikoi Inu Wa Hoezuni Warau
Ryohei Watanabe's debut film concerns two teen¬age girls and their friendship. The first friend is Misa, a stocky girl who is viciously dubbed Pooh at school, due to her surname "Kumada" (bear + rice paddy) and masculine frame. The other friend is Izumi, who says she can't make and keep friends because all the other girls are jealous of her looks. Together, the two become best of friends owed to them both being such firm outsiders. Their blossoming friendship starts off as endearing and as the two spend more and more time together the sheen of the relationship peels away. When the darkness and violence eventually bleed into the mix, that authenticity turns what could just be an¬other tale of teenage friendship gone awry, into a genuinely disturbing thriller. - Director:
