- DescriptionAward-winning filmmaker Aki Kaurismäki (Le Havre, The Other Side of Hope) makes a masterful return with Fallen Leaves, a love story about two lonely souls' path to happiness and the numerous hurdles they encounter along the way. Shot through with Kaurismäki's typically playful, idiosyncratic style and deadpan humor, this tender romantic tragicomedy set in contemporary Helsinki is a timely reminder of the potency of movie-going from one of cinema's living legends. Winner of the Jury Prize at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival.

Toy Story answers that question with a fantastic journey, viewed mostly through the eyes of two rival toys: Woody, the lanky, likable cowboy, and Buzz Lightyear, the fearless space ranger. Led by Woody, Andy's toys live happily in his room, until Andy's birthday brings Buzz Lightyear onto the scene. Afraid of losing his place in Andy's heart, Woody plots against Buzz. Although, when circumstances separate Buzz and Woody from their owner, the comically-mismatched duo eventually learn to put aside their differences, and they find themselves on an adventure-filled mission where the only way they can survive is to form an alliance.
