From acclaimed director Steve McQueen comes this Inchdeeply evocative and brilliantly actedInch film (Claudia Puig, USA Today) based on the true story of Solomon Northup. It is 1841, and Northup (Chiwetel Ejiofor), an accomplished, free citizen of New York, is kidnapped and sold into slavery. Stripped of his identity and deprived of all dignity, Northup is ultimately purchased by ruthless plantation owner Edwin Epps (Michael Fassbender) and must find the strength within to survive. Filled with powerful performances by an astonishing cast that includes Benedict Cumberbatch, Brad Pitt and newcomer Lupita Nyongo, 12 YEARS A SLAVE is both an unflinching account of slavery in American history and a celebration of the indomitable power of hope.

Cincinnati cardiologist Steven Murphy (Colin Farrell) lived an ordinary existence with his wife (Nicole Kidman) and kids... but on the quiet, he maintained an odd, paternal relationship with damaged teenager Martin (Barry Keoghan). As Murphy's children began to manifest strange illnesses, Martin takes the opportunity to insinuate himself into the doctor's home life... and as the shocking true nature of their bond is revealed, so too is the boy's twisted endgame. Yorgos Lanthimos' unnerving thriller co-stars Alicia Silverstone, Raffey Cassidy, Sunny Suljic, Bill Camp. 121 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.
