BRINGING UP BOBBY
Out Now on DVD

In an effort to escape her murky past and build a better future, Olive (Milla Jovovich), a nomadic European con-artist, and her 10-year-old son Bobby (Spencer List), find themselves living in Oklahoma. Olive enrols him in school, makes him do his homework and tries her hardest to be a good mother, and with the help of old friend Walt (Rory Cochrane), Olive "provides" for Bobby in the only way she knows how.

Despite her efforts, Bobby displays troubling behaviour both at his school and in their conservative neighbourhood. Things take a turn for the worse after Bobby's unfortunate run-in with local and wealthy businessman Kent (Bill Pullman), and Olive's criminal past finally catches up with her, forcing her to make the toughest judgement of all.

HAPPINESS RUNS
On DVD 10th June, 2013

HAPPINESS RUNS, the sophomore feature from director Adam Sherman, confronts head on a hangover of free love and rampant drug use lingering well past the hippie 1960s. Loosely based on experiences from Sherman's own youth, the film is a stylishly conceived consideration of the boundaries of hedonism and the dangers of a world where personal pleasure is the first consideration.

THE PARADE
On DVD 24th June, 2013

Srdjan Dragojevic's THE PARADE takes a comedic look at Serbia through the lens of one group's fight to hold a Gay Pride parade in Belgrade. When a bulldog is shot, an improbable alliance develops between two very different men. We meet Pearl and Limun (Nikola Kojo), a couple about to be married, and Mirko and Radmilo (Milos Samolov), a couple involved in the Gay Pride parade.

After a lover's tiff, Limun - who is less than accepting of Gay Pride - makes a deal to protect the participants in the parade in order to win Pearl back. Limun and Radmilo embark on a road trip across Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Kosovo as Limun attempts to assemble a fearsome security team for the parade.

ARTIFICIAL PARADISES

In ARTIFICIAL PARADISES, an idyllic beach in Northeast Brazil, Shangri-La - a huge festival of art and alternative culture - serves as a backdrop of intense sensory experiences between three different young contemporaries: Nando (Luca Bianchi), DJ Érika (Nathalia Dill) and her best friend Lara (Lívia de Bueno). Without realising it, as mere pieces of a chaotic game of fate, the encounter radically changes their lives forever.

SILENT SONATA
On DVD 26th August, 2013

Januz Berger's SILENT SONATA is an elegantly shot slice of magical realism set during wartime in an unnamed Balkan country, that employs the circus as a metaphor for the human spirit. After Stevo's wife is shot and killed, he prepares to defend his two young children against further marauders.

However, the incoming invaders turn out to be nothing less than the amazing Circus Fantasticus, which sets up camp nearby and lives up to its name when the performers turn out to have supernatural powers.
