Winner of the 2021 Academy Award for Best International Feature Film. Another Round follows a group of teachers who put the theory, that maintaining a constant level of modest inebriation will solve problems whilst boosting creativity, to the test. Whilst the results are initially positive, generating enough interest for a genuine academic study, some of the participants soon learn that moderation isn’t always a bad thing, and that some consequences are unavoidable. Directed by Thomas Vinterberg and starring Mads Mikklesen, Another Round is a brilliant introduction into the treasure trove that is world cinema.
Widely praised as Luis Banuels most Iconic Film and restored in stunning 4K UHD for its 50th Anniversary, The Discreet Charm of The Bourgeoise has a unique tongue-in-cheek view of the upper-class.
