A modern romantic fairytale exploring the trials and tribulations of three seemingly disparate sets of young people whose stories gradually interweave as fate takes a hand one New Year’s Eve.

Key cast: Lajos Sarkany, Katalin Toldi, Gyongyi Lendvai Mari lives with her invalid father and two children in a shack in the woods outside the city. Their living conditions are modest, like their other Romany neighbours. For centuries, their “kind” have been commonly referred to as gypsies. Recently, more than ever, they must exist stealthily: five entire families
in the area have already been murdered, gunned down in their own homes. The Romany community struggles to continue their simple daily routine amid the anxiety of the suspected racially motivated crimes. Mari juggles her two jobs. Teenager Anna tries to concentrate on her schoolwork and sketches. But young Rio is preoccupied with other things. Olympia 4

KIKORIKI: TEAM INVINCIBLE (Russia) 85mins. Lightning Entertainment. Dir: Denis Chernov. The lovable inhabitants of the remote island of Kikoriki have it all. But laughs, good friends and a distant paradise unspoiled by modern woes. But the lives of the Kikoriki gang are suddenly turned upside down when they stumble on a strange device they had only heard about — a television. Misinterpreting the super- hero show they see on this wonderous box as reality (and misunderstanding nearly everything else they see on screen) the gang is
quickly drawn into a zany adventure far beyond their wildest dreams — and adventure which catapults them across the vast ocean to the heart of the Big City itself. Lerins 2
