SIX POINTS ABOUT EMMA (Spain) 86mins. Imagina International Sales. Dir: Roberto Perez Toledo. Key cast: Alejandro Garcia, Fernando Tielve, Veronica Echegui. Emma is almost 30 years old. Her eyes are sightless, but still she thinks she can see all too clearly: she wants to be a mother. Without falling in love, without letting any feelings get in the way. It sounds easy enough but it won’t take Emma long to discover that it is not just her eyes that are blind. Palais F

BONES BRIGADE (US) 100mins. Film Sales
Company. Dir: Stacy Peralta. A very personal story of a group of young, dorky, straight-laced American kids who did the impossible through a combination of work, skill, passion and the belief that anything is possible: they succeeded in turning skateboarding from a fringe pastime to a thrilling action sport filled with extraordinary gravity-defying feats and generated a billion dollar industry. The Bones Brigade was the team they formed that revolutionised not only their lives, but international popular culture as well. Olympia 4

AMERIQUA (Italy) 90mins. The Little Film Company. Dir: Giovanni Consonni, Marco Bellone. Key cast: Bobby Kennedy III, Alec Baldwin, Alessandra Mastronardi, Eva Amurri, Giancarlo Giannini. Fresh from college and eager to explore Europe, Charlie takes a leap of faith and arrives in Italy without plans, friends or a place to stay. He’s ready to
experience the world, meet new people and, at all costs, postpone adulthood. It doesn’t take long before he’s running from the Mafia, falling for a beautiful Italian free-spirit, Valentina, and partying a little too much with the self-proclaimed King of Bolognia, Lele. Charlie may have graduated college but he’s about to fail in the real world; that is until he finds a way to afford his new lifestyle. Lerins 2
