Tao Okamoto and Virginie Efira stroll through Paris, philosophising about a better world in this delightfully long film by Ryûsuke Hamaguchi (_Drive My Car_).

Marie-Lou, director of a Paris care home, tries to break with convention through an innovative care method. She meets fierce resistance from her team, who consider putting the residents' wishes and dignity entirely front and centre unworkable.

Marie-Lou's life takes an unexpected turn when she meets Mari, a Japanese theatre director fighting cancer. As a close friendship develops between the two women, they join forces in a struggle to make the impossible possible.

Sitting still for 196 minutes sounds long, but think of _All of a Sudden_ as one of those delightful mental health walks, right inside the cinema. Director Ryusuke Hamaguchi (_Drive My Car_) takes his sweet time, and before you know it, so do you. In a world where everyone is running, rushing, and pushing on, his latest film is an (unbelievably) patient, welcome breath of fresh air. Hamaguchi loosely based the story on the correspondence between two academic pen pals who wrote to each other about philosophy, anthropology, capitalism, and approaching death. He cast Virginie Efira as Marie-Lou, a French care director trying to introduce the patience-based Humanitude method in her care home, and Tao Okamoto became Mari, a terminally ill theatre maker from Japan. Marie-Lou and Mari meet by chance in Paris and, though seemingly worlds apart, feel like kindred spirits from day one. And then off they walk. During their long strolls they talk about life – and how _all of a sudden_ it can just be over. The richer their conversations, the grander the small things around them feel, slowing you down as a viewer too. _All of a Sudden_ is the kind of film that quietly helps you catch your breath again. Every rushed, breathless gasp turns into a liberating deep sigh: Haaaaaaah… maguchi.

Think of this film as a long mental health walk: afterwards, the world all of a sudden feels a bit lighter.

On the rooftops of Tel Aviv, far from the war zone, Israeli soldiers hold secret late-night conversations. Step by step, it reveals how the military and intelligence services determine who is a target, which technologies and procedures are deployed, and how many civilian casualties an attack is allowed to cost. Tens, sometimes hundreds of Palestinian civilians can be deemed an acceptable price for taking out a single target. _Naza_ thus poses the painful question: how can the killing of innocent civilians become so normalised within a military machine that it's no longer seen as a moral or legal problem?

The title refers to Nezek Agavi, 'collateral damage', the Israeli military term for the expected number of civilian casualties in an airstrike. The term symbolises the dehumanisation baked deep into the system: civilian deaths aren't a tragic side-effect, but a foreseen and accepted part of military operations.

_Naza_, by filmmakers Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor (_No Other Land_), premiered at the Venice Film Festival, where it won the Special Jury Prize.

24 Israeli soldiers testify on camera for _No Other Land_ filmmakers Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor about their attacks on Gaza.

The Beloved

A love story so impossibly romantic that it is still taught in Swedish primary schools. In 1975, a young Indian man named P.K., falls in love with Lotta, who is Swedish. When she returns home, he gets on a second-hand bicycle with hardly any money in his pocket, embarking on a journey of over 10,000 kilometres to find her again.

What follows is a trek through unknown lands, over mountain passes and across endless landscapes, constantly relying on the help of strangers he meets along the way. P.K. is a Dalit, a so-called 'untouchable': born at the bottom of the Indian caste system, destined for a life of poverty and exclusion. At the same time, an astrologer made an extraordinary prediction at his birth about his future love. Meeting Lotta in New Delhi seems to bring this prophecy to pass. But when she fails to keep her promise to come back and see him, that becomes the question.

Oscar-winning director Orlando von Einsiedel (_The White Helmets_) brings this true story to life by retracing the journey with P.K. and a young actor portraying him.
