CLEMENCY (Chinonye Chokwu 2019)
Likely to be the most mainstream-known of this year's series, this one provides a powerhouse performance by Else Woodard as the warden of a prison where she has too often had to oversee executions by lethal injection and the latest one looks like it will finish her. Dramatizes the immense burden the death penalty imposes on everyone.
GENESIS/GENÈSE (Philippe Lesage 2018)
Continuation of the French Canadian director's autobiographical recreation of his youth, moving on to adolescence and first efforts at romance Suffers from too much diffuseness (is it really about anybody?) but has a star in the already experienced and very confident Théodore Pellerin.
BELONGING/AIDIYET (Burak Çevek: 2019)
Conceptual Turksh noir begins with the dry description of the amateurish, half-botched murder of a young woman's parents and morphs into her first romantic evening and nice Turkish morning after breakfast with her future husband and accomplice.
