Awards and Palme d'Or
The Palme d'Or went to Ken Loach's The Wind That Shakes The Barley. Check out all the winners.



Babel Babel
The champion of chorale structure cinema returns here with Babel, an ambitious political fable based on lack of communication.

Bug Bug
Bug marks the great return of William Friedkin, one of the masters of American cinema.

The Da Vinci Code The Da Vinci Code
Deprived of stakes, The Da Vinci Code posters a linearity which, under the cover of legitimacy for a simple spectator, is transformed into a smoky endeavor which falls flat

Fast Food Nation Fast Food Nation
This adaptation of Eric Schlosser's best seller is an unclassifiable filmic object, where breaks in style prevail.

Flandres Flandres
Bruno Dumont's film mirrors two spaces with climates that are worlds apart: the cinegenic region of Flanders and an Eastern country suffocating from the heat.

Marie-Antoinette Marie-Antoinette
Sofia Coppola takes us on a remarkable and fleeting tour of Queen Marie-Antoinette's Versailles.

Poison Friends Poison Friends
The story of a micro-society formed by Parisian literature students and dominated by the most brilliant and charismatic of them all.

Princess Princess
Though the project of treating this dark story of revenge is ambitious, the result, unfortunately, does not go the distance.

A Scanner Darkly A Scanner Darkly
An animated satire dipped in a thick layer of anti-establishment.


The Sea Inside Shortbus
All states of sex and sex in all its states: such is the proposal of Shortbus, a hedonistic tragi-comedy.

Southland Tales Southland Tales
The apocalypse according to Richard Kelly resembles a sophisticated Z series, that's excessive and confused, where the disincarnated figures of a decadent world become agitated.

Taxidermia Taxidermia
There are films which from the start announce themselves like UFOS making no secret of their ambition to divide the audience.

Volver Volver
Eternally in love with women, Pedro Almodovar takes up his favorite topic again in Volver, a minor work, on the edge of the fantastic.

The wind that shakes the Barleys The wind that shakes the Barley
Director Ken Loach would like to cause a storm, but he's caught in the wind with a film which revisits themes from Hidden Agenda.
