Fehér Tenyér

dir. Szabolcs Hajdu

Hungary, 2006 - 97

Miklos Dongo is an Olympic gymnast whose career was ended by an injury. He comes to Canada to begin a new life as a coach. He is assigned to train one of Canada’s most gifted young hopefuls. But the young man is vain and volatile and Miklos has difficulty establishing a rapport with him. He finally comes to understand that if he is to establish a working relationship with the young man, he must overcome his own fears and confront his past. Years before, as a boy, he had to endure the agony of daily training sessions, tough military drills, and insults and beating from his coach, who saw only a future world champion, and not a sensitive boy about to enter adulthood. The film is a combination of autobiographical elements and the experiences of the director’s brother, Zoltán Miklós Hajdu, a leading gymnast who also played the main role.

Seisyun Kinzuko Batto

dir. Kumakiri Kazuyoshi

Japan, 2006 - 96

Based on the well-known manga of the same title. It’s a baseball film, but not a sport film. It’s about young people who are all victims of their love for baseball. They have ended up going nowhere. Nanba is without money and a girlfriend. At secondary school, the future seemed promising: in those years, he played baseball at the highest level. But in the local supermarket where he has a part-time job, his colleagues think he is hopeless. When he meets the aggressive alcoholic Eiko, the peace and quiet in Nanba's life is over. He also comes into contact with the frustrated policeman Ishioka, an old team mate who had to give up his sporting career because of an elbow injury. Wakamatsu Koji, the legendary maker of pink film classics such as “Sex Jack” (1967) and “Ecstasy of Angels” (1972), plays the spirit of Babe Ruth.

Babel

dir. Alejandro González Inárritu

USA / Colombia, 2006 - 142

Three stories with a common denominator – a single gunshot. A family from Morocco, a couple of American tourists, a nanny from Mexico who takes care of American children, and the deaf daughter of a well-known businessman are sucked into a series of events that has disastrous or life-saving consequences, according to the protagonists involved. “We are under the impression,” explains the director, “that the world has become quite small due to all the communication tools which we have. Despite this, human beings are still incapable of communicating. Language is not the problem, I think that barrier can be very easy to break. For me, I think the problem is the ideas and preconceptions that we have that really keep us apart. They are what separates us and what brings us together. That's what the film's about.”
