Precious is a vibrant, honest and resoundingly hopeful film about the human capacity to grow and overcome. Set in Harlem in 1987, it is the story of “Precious” Jones (Gabourey Sidibe), an African-American girl born into a life no one would want. She’s pregnant for the second time by her absent father; at home, she must wait hand and foot on her mother (Mo’Nique), a poisonously angry woman. School is a place of chaos, but she is invited to enrol in an alternative school in hopes that her life can head in a new direction. Winner of Audience Award and Grand Jury Prize for Best Drama at this year’s Sundance Film Fest.

A Prophet (MA15+)

commences February 11
155m

Condemned to six years in prison, Malik El Djebena (Tahar Rahim), part Arab, part Corsican, cannot read or write. Arriving at the jail entirely alone, he appears younger and more fragile than the other convicts. He is 19 years old. Cornered by the leader of the Corsican gang currently ruling the prison, he is given a number of "missions" to carry out, toughening him up and gaining the gang leader's confidence in the process. Malik is a fast learner and rises up the prison ranks, all the while secretly devising his own plans… Winner of the Jury Prize at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival. French/Arabic/Corsican with English subtitles.

Three generations of electric guitar virtuosos - The Edge (U2), Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin), and Jack White (The White Stripes) - reveal how each musician developed his unique sound and style of playing favourite instruments; guitars both found and invented.
