One of Jacques Rivette's most accessible films - a reflection on theatre and life, mixed with playful references to haunted-house thrillers and mysterious-mansion whodunnits. The plot concerns semi-professional actors Emily (Jane Birkin) and Charlotte (Geraldine Chaplin) and their small theatrical troupe who are brought to a famous playwright's (Jean-Pierre Kalfon) ornate, decaying mansion to perform a work-in-progress that seems to mirror some unexplained recent events in the author's own life. The play does not have a final act, the playwright tells his guests, because the story isn't over yet...
Dominik Moll directs this Gothic melodrama based on the classic 1796 novel by Matthew Lewis. Vincent Cassel stars as Ambrosio, a devout monk widely known for his inspirational preachings, who has spent his entire life within the monastery walls after being left on the monks' doorstep as a baby. Now taking his vows as an adult, Ambrosio is highly respected by his brothers at the monastery and the surrounding village. But not long before a new arrival joins the order, a recurring dream begins to torment him, and his once-ordered life veers into unexpected and dangerous territory...
One of the 20th century's greatest humanitarians. Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu committed herself to a life of religious service from the age of just 12. Travelling to Abbeys across Europe, she eventually found herself called to Calcutta where she set up the Missionary Of Charities in 1950. There she ministered to some of the poorest, most desperate and helpless souls in the world, devoting her tireless energies, kindness and blessings on an extraordinary number of the communities. This touching, epic recreation of her incredible life honours the memory and sacrifices of a unique human being, one of the most loved, respected and revered in history.
