23:40. Melodrama, Comedy. USA 2019, 92 min. Directed by Woody Allen. Starring: Timothee Chalamet, Elle Fanning, Jude Law, Selena Gomez, Liev Schreiber, Diego Luna. In English with Russian subtitles. Can one rainy day change your life forever? Only Woody Allen can answer that question with his trademark melancholic humor and wise irony. A pair of young, pretty students come to New York for the weekend. She is a timid Arizona native who is supposed to do an interview with a famous film director for her university newspaper. He was born and raised on the Upper East Side and wants to show the girl the romantic New York that she has only ever seen in films. But the events of the day pull them in different directions, introduce them to new people, bring dreams to life and offer temptations that are so difficult to resist in this city — especially when you’re still so young.

17:20. Comedy, Melodrama. USA 1931, 87 min. Directed by Charles Chaplin. Starring: Charles Chaplin, Virginia Cherrill, Harry Myers, Jack Alexander, Al Ernest Garcia, Hank Mann. The little masterpieces of Charlie Chaplin are coming back to the big screen.

As he traipses around the streets of the big city, the Tramp meets a blind flower girl. He buys a flower with the last of his money, but the girl takes him to be a rich man. When he finds out that an expensive operation could return her sight, the Tramp sets off in search of money, winding up in funny, awkward, and sometimes even tragicomic situations.

| Public Talk with Schemers' Khaled Spiewak and Conor Berry |

20:00. Schemers is a youth action film set in the 1980s that tells the story of adventurous friends from a Scottish province who organize semi-underground concerts of the bands that are to become classics of the British music scene. The plot is based on a real life story: the film's director David Mclean made a successful career as a music promoter, and his friend Alex Weston founded the band Placebo in the early 1990s. At the public talk the audience will meet actor Conor Berry, who debuted with the film's lead role to the world of big cinema, and producer Khaled Spiewak who contributed to the film also as editor and cameraperson. The conversation, however, will go beyond the world of cinema: together with the moderator, music journalist Denis Boyarinov, the guests will discuss how the worlds of film and music intersect, will comment on the British music scene of today, and will explore how real life stories turn into films.

The Turners are an ordinary British family that just can’t get out of debt after the 2008 recession. Ricky was a builder, but lost his job. Now he is scrounging up enough money for a truck and finding work with a delivery service. In order to cover his costs, he has to work 14 hours a day, which means that Ricky hardly sees his family. His wife Abbie has an equally hard time taking care of the elderly and infirm. They start to displace their exhaustion and annoyance on their teenage children, and although the family used to be friends with each other and feel a very strong connection, the growing mass of problems threatens to ruin them.

The extravagant Addams family is back, now as a feature-length animated film, terribly funny and exquisitely dark. They wear black, love cemeteries, never smile, live in a scary house with ghosts on the top of a hill — and feel great about it. At the bottom of the hill, there is an ideal little town, full of pastel-colored houses, green pastures, and joyful smiles. One of the residents thinks that the Addams family doesn’t quite fit into the overall picture, and they decide to declare war on their strange neighbors. But the Addams family values have never been stronger!
