La bola negra tells the story of three men whose lives are intimately connected through desire, pain and inheritance, across three different eras – 1932, 1937 and 2017. Rich with Lorca's poetry and suffused with desire, grief and hope, it is an intimate love story and a sweeping exploration of memory, inheritance and queer history, honouring those whose lives and loves were too often forced into silence

Futureworld

Film Skool
| 
Following the success of Westworld, director Richard T. Heffron expanded Michael Crichton’s techno-nightmare with Futureworld – a sleek, conspiracy-laced slice of 1970s science fiction that trades frontier thrills for post-Watergate paranoia in the age of automation.

When reporters Chuck Browning (Peter Fonda, Easy Rider) and Tracy Ballard (Blythe Danner, The Great Santini) are invited to inspect the newly reopened Delos resort, they find a futuristic paradise promising safe, sanitized entertainment. But beneath the polished surface, troubling inconsistencies begin to emerge – and as suspicion turns to terror, the pair uncover a sinister conspiracy with consequences far beyond the park itself.

Stylish, suspenseful and packed with all-star turns – including the return of Yul Brynner’s implacable Gunslinger – Futureworld spins a compelling web of sci-fi intrigue, serving as a timely reminder that progress always has its price.

Fargo

Film Skool


| 
Oft-imitated but never matched, Joel & Ethan Coen (No Country For Old Men) are among the most celebrated filmmakers working in the world today. With Fargo, a darkly comic crime story set in small town Minnesota, they created one of the defining films of the 1990s.

Desperate for money, small town car salesman Jerry Lundegaard (William H. Macy) hires two squabbling criminals (Steve Buscemi and Peter Stormare) to kidnap his wife with a view to extracting a hefty ransom from his wealthy father-in-law. But once the kidnapping takes place, nothing goes according to plan, and as the police investigate the bloody fallout, the hole Jerry digs for himself just keeps getting deeper.

Featuring an iconic performance from Frances McDormand as pregnant police chief Marge Gunderson, Fargo’s mix of absurdist wit and shocking violence earned the film acclaim and awards across the globe, including Academy Awards for Best Actress and Best Original Screenplay.

Pleasure under the burning sun takes on sinister undertones in this haunting tale of a cruel father determined to tempt his son into relinquishing his spiritual ambitions.

Top of the World

| 
Top of the World tells the story of Windows on the World, the legendary restaurant atop the World Trade Center that became both a symbol of New York City’s resurgence in the 1970s and one of the most celebrated restaurants in America. Its story came to a devastating end on September 11, 2001, when the terrorist attacks claimed the lives of all 79 Windows employees working that morning, along with 91 guests.


Through intimate firsthand accounts from the former staff who made Windows on the World extraordinary, Top of the World recreates the magical world that existed 107 stories above Manhattan, where fine dining, hospitality and the American dream converged. Anchored by interviews with acclaimed chef Michael Lomonaco, longtime Cellar Master Kevin Zraly, hostess Nathalie Tolentino, and prep cook Sekou Siby, the film reveals how a restaurant became a gateway to opportunity for generations of immigrants and an enduring symbol of New York City itself. Food writer Ruth Reichl and former WNBC anchor Carol Jenkins bring perspective on Windows and on New York City during the restaurant’s twenty-five-year history.
