Benson Lee directs this drama starring Josh Holloway and Chris Brown in which a down on his luck basketball coach attempts to rally a team of breakdancers to win a major competition. Though America initially set up the 'Battle of the Year' competition, where the best b-boying (or breakdancing) performers from a number of countries square off, a team from the US hasn't taken the trophy home for 15 years. This greatly concerns L.A. rap mogul Dante (Laz Alonso) who attempts to convince his friend Blake (Holloway), a top basketball coach who has fallen on hard times, to take charge of this year's team. Though Blake is initially sceptical, he quickly realises that his ability to build team spirit may be the missing ingredient. Can his team, which includes Rooster (Brown), prevail in this year's competition?
Agnieszka Holland directs this acclaimed drama based on the true story of a sewage worker who saved the lives of 14 Jews in the Polish city of Lvov during the Second World War. Leopold 'Poldek' Socha (Robert Wieckiewicz), a resolutely anti-Semitic sewer inspector who supplements his meagre government income by trading in stolen goods, discovers a group of Jews hiding from the occupying Nazis in the waste tunnels underneath the city. The group begs him to bring them food and Socha agrees - not from any moral compulsion but because he believes he can charge them an extortionate amount of money for what he brings. However, as time passes and Leopold spends more time with a group of people who come to rely on him for survival, the inspector's misanthropic demeanour appears to undergo a change. Finally, the money begins to run out and Leopold is forced to face up to the kind of moral choice he would have scoffed at in the past.
