EMA (MOTHER)
Recommended. Seemingly about a mother taking care of her son in a coma due to a gunshot. In such an intimate setting cinematography plays a role and here it's a good one. So is the acting which appears naturally casual, just like the make-up and costumes. This gives the impression of ordinariness. However, each character has a foible and you quickly realise it's a crime drama. The story develops at a good pace up to a shocking finale. In fact the ending is like nothing I have seen at the cinema or even heard of in real life before.
3RD "CZECH DOCUMENTS, PLEASE!"
ZAKON HELENA (HELENA'S LAW)
Watchable. An interesting documentary showing the psychological side of comitting a crime and fighting it. Funny how none of the offenders, including the gang leader, will acknowledge their hideous acts. They all, with no exception, justify their actions and play them down. You have to find it between the lines though as the film lacks a point.
