Certified Copy (12A)
Starring Juliette Binoche, William Shimell
Binoche (HIDDEN) won the Best Actress award at Cannes for her latest collaboration with Iranian auteur Kiarostami (TEN). Described as a grown-up BEFORE SUNSET, CERTIFIED COPY is an enigmatic work built on intriguing notions around authenticity. Elle (Binoche), a married gallery owner living in a Tuscan village, attends a lecture given by an English author (Shimell) on the subject of authenticity and fakery in art. Afterwards she invites him on a drive, during which he is mistaken for her husband. She doesn't contradict the assumption and the pair continue on their afternoon out, discussing life, love and art, and increasingly behaving like a long-married couple whose love has dwindled. A fascinating ambivalence lies at the heart of the narrative: are they play-acting on a whim, or are they in fact a real couple who had been estranged?

From acclaimed filmmaker Christopher Nolan comes ‘Inception’ - a psychological action thriller starring Leonardo DiCaprio as Dom Cobb, a thief who is able to extract valuable secrets from people’s sub-conscious as they dream. Cobb’s ability has made him a wanted man, but he is given a chance of redemption. All he has to do is plant an idea into someone’s mind. However, nothing can prepare him for the enemy that somehow predicts his every move. In a word where nothing is quite as it seems, the next crime scene really is all in the mind.
