BOMBSHELL
Recommended. I nearly cried at some point. The movie consists of visually appealing, of course, with Hollywood's hottest actresses, dramatised re-enactions of a huge sexual harassment case, hinting at Donald Trump as a sex predator as well. It highlights that you need to speak up, at least for the sake of future victims. Finally a movie about the topic! Still, when you see how it all ended, you leave frustrated that all the (23 at least) victims together received 50 m $ in compensation, while 2 predators got 65 m $ in severance pay from Fox News. Justice still hasn't been done. The image of the revolting perv haunts you later at night.
JAK ZOSTALEM GANGSTEREM. HISTORIA PRAWDZIWA (HOW I BECAME A GANGSTER. TRUE STORY)
I've seen it already and the review's waiting to be posted on 25th December. I'm not allowed to post it earlier.
19TH WATCH DOCS FILM FESTIVAL
EXODUS
Watchable. Good cinematography. Shows how Afghani workers are exploited by Iranians both at work and by authorities. The cultural background isn't explained though, so some cases aren't clear.
THE TRIAL OF RATKO MLADIC
Watchable. The documentary does a good job of showing the locations of the war crimes on the one hand and Ratko Mladić's smirk on the other. He must have been happy hearing the survivors' agonizing testimonies. Yet it feels protracted a bit which renders it less emotional.
