    Mongrel Media Presents OF GODS AND MEN A Film by Xavier Beauvois (120 min., France, 2010) Distribution Publicity Bonne Smith 1028 Queen Street West Star PR Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M6J 1H6 Tel: 416-488-4436 Tel: 416-516-9775 Fax: 416-516-0651 Fax: 416-488-8438 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] www.mongrelmedia.com High res stills may be downloaded from http://www.mongrelmedia.com/press.html SYNOPSIS Eight French Christian monks live in harmony with their Muslim brothers in a monastery perched in the mountains of North Africa in the 1990s. When a crew of foreign workers is massacred by an Islamic fundamentalist group, fear sweeps though the region. The army offers them protection, but the monks refuse. Should they leave? Despite the growing menace in their midst, they slowly realize that they have no choice but to stay… come what may. This film is loosely based on the life of the Cistercian monks of Tibhirine in Algeria, from 1993 until their kidnapping in 1996. PREAMBLE In 1996 the kidnapping and murder of the seven French monks of Tibhirine was one of the culminating points of the violence and atrocities in Algeria resulting from the confrontation between the government and extremist terrorist groups that wanted to overthrow it. The disappearance of the monks – caught in a vice between both sides- had a great and long-lasting effect on the governments, religious communities and international public opinion. The identity of the murderers and the exact circumstances of the monks‟ deaths remain a mystery to this day.

    LE JURY DES LONGS MÉTRAGES 2019 La 26e édition du FESTIVAL INTERNATIONAL DU FILM FANTASTIQUE DE GÉRARDMER se déroulera du 30 janvier au 3 février 2019. Le Jury des Longs Métrages sera co-présidé par les réalisateurs, scénaristes, producteurs et comédiens français : BENOÎT DELÉPINE & GUSTAVE KERVERN © DR Les cinéastes Gustave Kervern et Benoit Delépine font leurs premières armes à la télévision, l’un pour « Le plein de Super », et l’autre pour « Les Guignols de l’info ». Le duo naît de leur rencontre sur les plateaux de l’émission « Groland », incarnation du vent de liberté qui soufflait alors sur Canal+. Fidèles à l’esprit contestataire de la chaîne, ils irriguent leurs réalisations d’une apparente désinvolture, faite d’improvisation et de surréalisme dès leur premier long-métrage Aaltra (2004). Dans leurs films suivants, Avida (2006), Louise Michel (2008), Mammuth (2010), Le Grand soir (2012), ils poursuivent leur vision du monde et mettent en scène des personnages marginaux, laissés pour compte: Yolande Moreau, Benoît Poelvoorde, Mathieu Kassovitz, Albert Dupontel, Gérard Depardieu, Bouli Lanners ou encore Isabelle Adjani se succèdent ainsi devant leur caméra, aux côtés de comédiens non professionnels. En 2014, ils collaborent avec Michel Houellebecq, écrivain lauréat du Prix Goncourt pour « La carte et le territoire » et personnage central sur lequel se construit leur film Near Death Experience. Ils retrouvent ensuite Gérard Depardieu et Benoît Poelvoorde pour leur road-movie Saint Amour (2016). Leur dernière réalisation I Feel Good,

Dependent on the medical staff and pain relievers, she takes time to look back on the turbulent ten-year relationship she experienced with Georgio (Vincent Cassel). Why did they love each other?

For Tony, a difficult process of healing is in front of her, physical work which may finally set her free. LOGLINE Acclaimed auteur Maïwenn’s magnum opus about the real and metaphysical pain endured by a woman (Emmanuelle Bercot) who struggles to leave a destructive co-dependent relationship with a charming, yet extremely self-centered lothario (Vincent Cassel).

    Westworld Opens on Foxtel

    Media Release: Friday, August 12, 2016 Westworld opens on Visit the ultimate resort from 12pm AEDST Monday, October 3 - same time as the US - only on showcase Westworld, HBO’s highly anticipated reality bending drama, starring Anthony Hopkins, Rachel Evan Wood and James Marsden will arrive on Foxtel on Monday October 3 at 12pm AEDST, same time as the US, with a prime time encore at 8.30pm, only on showcase. Set at the intersection of the near future and the reimagined past, Westworld, based on the 1973 film, is a dark odyssey that looks at the dawn of artificial consciousness and the evolution of sin and explores a world in which every human appetite, no matter how noble or depraved, can be indulged. The 10 episode season of Westworld is an ambitious and highly imaginative drama that elevates the concept of adventure and thrill-seeking to a new, ultimately dangerous level. In the futuristic fantasy park known as Westworld, a group of android “hosts” deviate from their programmers’ carefully planned scripts in a disturbing pattern of aberrant behaviour. Westworld’s cast is led by Anthony Hopkins (Noah, Oscar® winner for The Silence of the Lambs) as Dr. Robert Ford, the founder of Westworld, who has an uncompromising vision for the park and its evolution; Ed Harris (Snowpiercer, Golden Globe winner for HBO’s Game Change; Oscar® nominee for Pollock and Apollo 13) as The Man in Black, the distillation of pure villainy into one man; Evan Rachel Wood (HBO’s Mildred Pierce and True Blood) as Dolores Abernathy, a provincial rancher’s daughter who starts to discover her idyllic existence is an elaborately constructed lie; James Marsden (The D Train, the X-Men films) as Teddy Flood, a new arrival with a close and recurring bond with Dolores; Thandie Newton (Half of a Yellow Sun, Mission: Impossible II) as Maeve Millay, a madam with a knack for survival; and Jeffrey Wright (The Hunger Games films; HBO’s Confirmation and Boardwalk Empire) as Bernard Lowe, the brilliant and quixotic head of Westworld’s programming division.
