'June & Kopi': Another Story about Friendship
An Indonesian film that brings strong representation of Asian descent in this heart-warming tale of a woman and her dog.
The Second Game
A deceptively simple set-up: the director and his father watch a 1988 football match which the father refereed, their commentary accompanying the original television images in real time. A Bucharest derby between the country’s leading teams, Dinamo and Steaua, taking place in heavy snow, one year before the revolution that toppled Ceaușescu.

They don’t care how far the community has fallen so much as how high they can rebuild themselves.
