22:00 Loveless
Drama. Russia, Belgium, Germany, France 2017, 127 min. Directed by Andrey Zvyagintsev. Starring: Maryana Spivak, Sergey Dvoinikov, Djan Badmaev, Evgenia Dmitrieva. In Russian with English subtitles. A Moscow family suffers through a difficult, torturous divorce. Boris and Zhenya are still married, but each of them has begun a new chapter of life, and thus neither is in a hurry to finish with the formalities. Amid their conflicts and mutual demands, Zhenya and Boris are neglecting their only child, 12-year-old Alyosha, who acutely feels just how unnecessary he is to his parents. After yet another argument, Alyosha unexpectedly disappears. “Loveless” has been awarded the jury prize at the 70th Cannes Film Festival. The Guardian, which gave “Loveless” its highest rating, compared the film with Ingmar Bergman’s “Scenes from a Marriage,” Michelangelo Antonioni’s “L’Avventura,” and Michael Haneke’s “Caché.”

12:15 Rock’n Roll
Comedy. France 2017, 123 min. Directed by Guillaume Canet. Starring: Guillaume Canet, Marion Cotillard, Philippe Lefebvre. In French with Russian subtitles. Guillaume and Marion are a married couple of actors. Not long ago, he was a young star, and enjoyed the lush life of fame. Now he’s 43, filming cheap TV shows, wearing whatever he finds, and the press has begun to hint that his career is coming to an end. Guillaume is finally defeated by one young actress, who announces that he’s already not “rock’n roll,” and in her list of potential lovers, he’s only one place away from the bottom. Guillaume understands that he has to turn his life around. A mockumentary in which Guillaume Canet and Marion Cotillard seem to play themselves, while actually taking their media images to a level of absurdity. As the director himself said “If we listen to all sorts of stupid things about us, why not come up with some of them ourselves?”
