20:30. Drama. USA 2019, 88 min. Directed by Annabelle Attanasio. Starring: Camila Morrone, James Badge Dale, Calvin Demba. In English with Russian subtitles. In Anaconda, Montana, a strong-willed teenage girl navigates a loving but volatile relationship with her veteran father. In a desperate search for independence and her own identity, she risks family, heartbreak, and her standing in the only place she can call home. "Mickey and the Bear" is an essential coming-of-age story, told from the unique perspective of a strong, unrelenting female protagonist. In emancipating herself from the responsibilities imposed upon her by her father, Mickey's narrative is hopeful -- despite the pain of leaving Hank behind, she is finally free to pursue independence as a young woman.

11:30. Documentary. France, New Zealand 2019, 103 min. Directed by Justin Pemberton. In English with Russian subtitles. This film is based on the best-selling book by French economist Thomas Piketty. It is a bold, powerful statement on the nature of wealth and power which breaks down the widespread notion that the accumulation of capital goes hand-in-hand with progress. Traveling through time from the French Revolution to the World Wars and other global historical shifts to contemporary pop culture and the development of technology, the film sheds new light on the inner workings of the world around us, growing socioeconomic inequality and a troubling future in which two-thirds of people will be poorer than their parents.
