The Salesman was the Oscar winner for Best Foreign Language film and the winner of several awards at the Cannes Film Festival. The film is about a young Iranian couple who moves to a flat in Tehran as their apartment and their lives begin to crumble. In Farsi with English subtitles.
Oscar-nominated The Red Turtle is a dialogue-less animated film that follows the major life stages of a man shipwrecked on a deserted tropical island populated by turtles, crabs and birds.
I Am Not Your Negro is an Oscar-nominated documentary connecting the lives and murders of Malcolm X, Martin Luther King and Medgar Evers to #BlackLivesMatter and today’s racial crisis in America, through the writings of James Baldwin. Narrated by Samuel L. Jackson.
