Two young elephants freely roaming the wild plains of Africa find themselves on a life-changing adventure when they get separated from their family.

A teacher pushes a student with extraordinary gifts to keep on writing -- even though he knows the young author's research methods are questionable.

You can almost smell the hairspray in Akerman’s exuberant but subversive musical about the many romantic entanglements of salon workers in a shopping mall basement. Its natty 1980s style, witty song lyrics, rapturous dance sequences, not to mention a gloriously bitchy male-suited quartet, deliver all the joys of the genre.

After the death of his father, Australian-born Isaac travels to Greece to scatter the ashes. Upon visiting the village where his father was born, Isaac is warned of an old curse that hangs over the head of his family. At first dismissing the claims as religious myth, Isaac continues his journey across Europe, from Paris to Budapest, discovering further clues about his heritage along the way, gradually piecing together a dark truth to uncover the secret torment that forced his father to abscond all those years ago. A brooding interpretation of Christos Tsiolkas’ acclaimed novel, Dead Europe comes steeped in mystery and superstition, addressing disparate themes of religion, sexuality and politics in surprising and compelling ways. In many ways a study of a continent in decline, the figure of Europe itself hangs heavy over proceedings, as do the ghosts that inhabit it, both metaphorical and quite possibly real.
