Drawn from an exciting Locarno Pro lineup, these talents – directors, producers and industry execs – impacted at Locarno, and will often in the future. Nine are women, which says a lot about cutting-edge innovation in Europe and beyond.

Despina Athanassiadis, France

Born in France and with Greek roots, Athanassiadis is currently focusing on her Alliance4Development project “The Young One,” about female truck drivers – “It’s a story of transmission, from older to younger generation” – which was awarded script consultancy residency at DreamAgo. “As a filmmaker, I’m interested in people who struggle. I find it fascinating, watching how they find ways to fix their problems. I want to see them on screen,” she states. In her next film, she will focus on a middle-aged French woman, whose life changes forever when she goes to Greece. “It’s a movie with inner and outer journeys, and with lots of international characters.

Cécile Embleton and Alys Tomlinson’s ’Mother Vera’ and Sarah Lewis’ ’No Ifs Or Buts’ honoured in festival’s works-in-progress section.

Documentary filmmakers scooped the prizes in Locarno Pro’s First Look work-in-progress section, which is dedicated to UK films this year.

Mother Vera, co-directed by Cécile Embleton and Alys Tomlinson, won the new Creativity Media First Look Award covering services towards the completion of films in post-production up to the value of € 50,000.

Mother Vera follows a young Orthodox nun making her way from the thick snow of the Belarusian forest to the heat of the reeds in the French Camargue.

Belarusian-set pic Mother Vera has picked up Locarno’s Creativity Media First Look Award, the biggest prize handed out by the festival’s industry section.

The award comes with a €50,000 cash prize that covers services towards the completion of films in post-production. Filmmakers Cécile Embleton and Alys Tomlinson co-directed the pic with producer Laura Shacham.

Discussing their choice, the Locarno Pro jury — comprised of Ava Cahen, Gaia Furrer, and Eugene Hernandez — said: “From the opening moments of this film, we were immediately drawn to the strikingly photographed stark portrait of a fascinating nun in Belarus who makes a journey to France. We congratulate filmmakers Cécile Embleton and Alys Tomlinson and wish them the best with this new film, Mother Vera.”

Embleton is a London-based filmmaker who has predominantly worked in docs. Her debut film,...

It was a good day for female filmmakers – and documentaries – at Locarno Pro, with “Mother Vera” by Cécile Embleton and Alys Tomlinson winning the Creativity Media First Look Award on Sunday at Locarno’s pix-in-post competition, dedicated this year to the U.K.

Dedicated to a young Orthodox nun, “Mother Vera” shows her turbulent past and fragile future as she faces inner conflict after 20 years as a monastic.

“From the opening moments of this film, we were immediately drawn to the strikingly photographed stark portrait of a fascinating nun in Belarus who makes a journey to France,” said jurors Ava Cahen, Gaia Furrer and Eugene Hernandez.

The award covers post production services up to the value of €50,000. Laura Shacham produces “Mother Vera” for She Makes Productions.

“About six years ago, they were working together on Alice’s photographic project documenting Christian pilgrimage sites in Eastern Europe. They saw this striking woman,...

Alliance 4 Development – a co-development initiative for film projects from Austria, France, Germany, Italy and Switzerland hosted by Locarno Pro – is ready to embrace a “variety of genres, themes and visions,” says project manager Francesca Palleschi.

Among 11 titles selected for its 8th edition, emerging filmmakers will be featured alongside their more established colleagues.

“We are proud to support these projects along the path of their development, including several debuts and more than half helmed by female directors,” she adds.

That said, Alliance 4 Development, part of Locarno Pro, headed by Markus Duffner (pictured) features most of the bigger projects being brought to market at Locarno, some bigger-budgeted by European standards.

Ann Oren will bring her unique point of view to “Objet a,” about a couple that, she states, “falls out of sync,” and starts following a mysterious woman with “unusually wild armpit hair.”

“Prince Aden,” a new drama by Italian directing duo Gianluca and Massimiliano De Serio, known internationally for their immigration-themed “Seven Acts of Mercy,” is among projects selected by Locarno’s Alliance for Development initiative.

The platform, now in its 8th year, is geared towards fostering co-productions between France, Germany, Italy and Switzerland.

Inspired by the book “Partigiani d’Oltremare,” by Italian historian Matteo Petracci, the De Serio twins’ new colonial-era film follows the vicissitudes of a 16-year-old Somali named Aden Sicré who in 1935 becomes a soldier in the Italian army that invaded Ethiopia on Mussolini’s orders. In an unexpected turn, he becomes hailed as a war hero by the Fascist regime. Then a few years later Aden and other African fighters play a pivotal role in the partisan struggle against fascism in Europe.

Margot Robbie plays Tonya Harding in the upcoming biopic “I, Tonya,” but in a recent interview the actress admitted she didn’t know the infamous skater was a real person when she first read the script. “I think I was about 4 years old when the incident took place,” Robbie said in an interview with Vanity Fair ahead of the movie’s premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on Friday. “I was in Australia and totally unaware of the whole incident and the crazy controversy.” Also Read: 'I, Tonya': Margot Robbie Dazzles as 'White Trash' Olympian But Allison Janney Takes the Gold “To.

Greg Garcia is back at it -- this time with The Guest Book, an anthology series centered around a cabin in the woods that different guests visit each week. Though the guest stars (like Jaime Pressly, Jenna Fischer and Michael Rapaport) are consistently hilarious, the story lines only seem to get more outrageous -- a testament to Garcia's incredible imagination and guts to actually write these stories in real guest books in cabins around the country.

Each episode of the 10-part TBS series is based on a real story that Garcia wrote as a way to cure his writer's block while working on My Name Is Earl -- and left to "freak out the next guest." Here, Garcia includes and excerpt from "Entry Eleven," a real story he left behind in a guest book on vacation.

Audiences at the 2016 Locarno Film Festival got used to hearing a familiar statement: “I just saw a Portuguese film.” They were hard to ignore. Fourteen films of some 200 in the lineup were directed or produced by Portuguese people and were distributed across different sections of the festivals. Viewed together, they have a lot to say about the state of a country’s cinema and its ability to wrestle with broad historical concerns.

These included the so-called “blasphemous” biopic of a Lisbon patron saint in João Pedro Rodrigues’ “The Ornithologist” and “Correspondences,” directed by Rita Azevedo Gomes, which focuses on a letter...

“In France, young people get hell from the government who tells them to stop dreaming, to be more grounded.” – Axelle Ropert

During the conference following the press screening of her third feature film, “The Apple of My Eye” — which was competing for the Golden Leopard at the 69th Locarno International Film Festival — Axelle Ropert said that she “absolutely” wanted to depict today’s European youth in her new film. That will come as a surprise to those who have followed Ropert’s work as a screenwriter, director and film critic known for her disinterest in films that deal with modern-day concerns.

Written by Gordon Rennie | Art by Martin Edmond | Published by Titan Comics | Format: Hardback, 128pp

White Trash was originally published way back in 1991 in Blast! Magazine, and you can probably guess the level of cult status it has by the fact that both Tundra and Heavy Metal have had a bash at publishing it also, before Titan Comics have come along and published this new 128 page collection.

White Trash was one of Gordon Rennie’s first ever published scripts, way before his successful time on 2000Ad and Judge Dredd, and was the strip that launched Martin Emond. The art style and anarchic nature almost certainly got him his gigs on the Lobo comics he did at DC.

White Trash is a difficult comic to describe, but ‘anarchic’ is the one phrase that keeps springing to mind. You could either view it as wonderful, over-the-top humour, poking fun at the U.

Despite online rumors to the contrary, Mark McGrath is still alive.

A fake press release circulated online Thursday, claiming that that the 46-year-old Sugar Ray frontman and TV personality had been fatally shot by a masked gunman on the Hollywood set of Adult Swim show Hot Package.

"In honor of Mr. McGrath's legacy, his team is asking in liu [sic] of flowers, fans post a Sugar Ray Selfie, holding a packet of sugar over their heart. #Ripmarkmcgrath," the press release asked.

The singer quickly cleared things up on Twitter, posting a video of the Edgar Winter & White Trash song "Still Alive and Well."

L’Avventura

Written by Michelangelo Antonioni, Elio Bartolini, and Tonino Guerra

Directed by Michelangelo Antonioni

Italy, 1960

Michelangelo Antonioni’s enigmatic and brilliant L’Avventura is one of the benchmarks for international art cinema, a somewhat disputable designation that was, nevertheless, very much in vogue at the time of its release. Take the 1960 Cannes Film Festival for example, where L’Avventura debuted to one of the event’s most divisive responses, with initially more boos than cheers greeting this affront to conventional film narrative and form. Yet, this was also the year of Fellini’s La Dolce Vita (the Palme d’Or winner), Chukhray’s Ballad of a Soldier, Bergman’s The Virgin Spring, Kalatozov’s Letter Never Sent, and Buñuel’s The Young One, to name just a few of the other titles at the festival, where, ultimately, L’Avventura came away with the Jury Prize (shared with Ichikawa’s...

4. Desire Without Language

Weekend 3 - Jan.24-26th

The fourth chapter of the Harvard-Gulbenkian program stages a unique extended dialogue between Manuela Viegas and Lucrecia Martel, two artists who share a similar ambition to dramatically renew the potential of the cinema as an audio-visual and uniquely sensorial medium. Unseating the long-standing hierarchy of the visual in the cinema, the films of Viegas and Martel are intensely tactile and audio-visual, enriched by complex soundscapes that awaken the invisible, immeasurable space beyond the frame, animating and decentering the dynamically abstract mise-en-scene favored by both filmmakers. Despite their relatively small respective oeuvres—to date Martel has completed three features, Viegas just one—their every film is career defining and milestone. Indeed, with each work Viegas and Martel define a new paradigm of narrative cinema, a different means of reaching far beyond mere representation and story to open the all too often untapped phenomenological...

Legendary country singer and actress Dolly Parton is making no apologies for her "redneck" background. "We were really redneck, roughneck, hillbilly people. And I'm proud of it," she says in the October issue of Southern Living, on newsstands Sept. 19. "'White trash!' I am. … But I'm proud of my hillbilly, white trash background. That keeps you humble; that keeps you good." Another thing Parton, 68, has no qualms about owning is the plastic surgery she has had over the years. "Well, I never would have said I did it if I hadn't got caught at it," she says. "But I wasn't gonna lie about it!

Over the past 12 years, there have been hundreds of men and women who have competed inside of a Total Nonstop Action ring. Some of these wrestlers were the type you’d like to forget ever worked there like the massive Cheex, Eric Bischoff’s favorite son, Garett Bischoff or the currently employed Rob Terry. Others who have wrestled in Tna possessed incredible talent with plenty of memorable matches to their name like A.J. Styles, Samoa Joe and Christopher Daniels. And then, there were former and future stars that you just don’t remember ever being there.

Many of these wrestlers joined the company before their days on Spike TV, where they were only seen by a fraction of their current audience. Tna started as a $10 a week two hour pay-per-view (same price as an entire month of the WWE Network as Michael Cole would say), then moved to...

"I mean, look at me - I'm a mandingo!" That seemed to be the tipping point in an appearance on Saturday Night Live's most recent "Weekend Update" by Leslie Jones, a new writer on the show. Her riff, titled "No. 1 Slave Draft Pick," started with her congratulating actress Lupita Nyong'o, People magazine's 2014 choice for World's Most Beautiful, then exploded all over the place as she suggested she'd have more luck landing a man if she were a strong, baby-producing slave in the Old South. The sketch quickly fired up controversy, as media pundits weighed in and public outcry erupted on Twitter and social media.

Having already won over the hearts of TV viewers everywhere, Aaron Paul now has his eyes set on the big screen.

Best known for playing Jesse Pinkman in "Breaking Bad," the actor hits theaters this Friday in the adrenaline-pumping "Need for Speed." Success didn't come easy for the talented actor, however, who had to work his way from humble beginnings to become the Emmy-winning man he is today.

From a legendary encounter with Michael Jackson to his former mascot job, here are 17 things you probably don't know about Aaron Paul.

1. Paul auditioned for the role of Francis on "Malcolm in the Middle" (2000), the hit sitcom that starred his future "Breaking Bad" co-star, Bryan Cranston.

Jenelle is on a rampage today! The ‘Teen Mom 2′ star just tweeted that she’s done with the cameras. Is this end of ‘Teen Mom 2′?!

Feb. 14 has not been Jenelle Evans‘ day so far. Earlier, HollywoodLife.com reported that the Teen Mom 2 star was smoking weed and drinking alcohol during her current pregnancy, and now, after feuding with co-star Kailyn Lowry over the reports, Jenelle has decided to quit the show all together! And according to her tweets, it seems she thinks that Teen Mom 2 will be cancelled if she does quit.

Jenelle Evans to MTV — ‘Teen Mom 2′ Is Over Because I Quit!

Could Teen Mom 2 really be over for good if Jenelle, 22, were to quit the show? That’s what she thinks! The pregnant star has been going off on Twitter all day after reports surfaced that she has been smoking weed and...

This does not look good. Jenelle has reportedly been smoking weed, even though she is pregnant with her second child. Has she also been drinking alcohol with Nathan Griffith during her pregnancy?

Jenelle Evans may be doing two of the most harmful things a woman could do while pregnant — smoking weed and drinking alcohol! A friend of the Teen Mom 2 star tells RadarOnline.com that, while in Los Angeles on Feb. 10 to tape the show’s reunion special, Jenelle reached out to her and asked her if they could get high together. Making matters worse, another source is claiming that her boyfriend, Nathan Griffith, has been encouraging Jenelle to drink alcohol while pregnant with their first child together.

“We can smoke and chill on a huge f***ing blunt lol,” is what Teen Mom 2 star Jenelle, 22, allegedly wrote in a text on Feb.

Farrah Abraham’s second sex tape has been released, but the ‘Couples Therapy’ star is now saying that she always wanted to stay a virgin until marriage. So instead of promoting her second venture into porn, she’s vowing to give up sex until she gets married. Yes, really!

Couples Therapy actress Farrah Abraham, 22, is taking a stand against sex, following the release of her second sex tape, Farrah 2: Backdoor & More.

Even though we already knew there was major trouble in paradise for Jenelle, 21, and her husband Courtland, 27, it’s still surprising to see them constantly taking aim at each other on social media. On the evening of Feb. 11, Courtland sent Jenelle a tweet stating he wanted a divorce. The couple has been legally separated for the better part of the year, and Jenelle is currently living with her new boyfriend, Nathan Griffith.

The Teen Mom‘s are definitely going through some major life changes this season!

While Leah’s ex Corey Simms has their daughters Ali and Aleeah for the weekend, she comes to the realization that selling her first home with husband Jeremy Calvert is necessary if Ali is going to need a wheelchair in the future.

In a sneak peek of the Feb. 11 episode of ‘Teen Mom 2,’ we see Leah Messer dealing with ex Corey Simms’ denial over their daughter Aliannah’s congenital muscular dystrophy diagnosis.

On the Feb. 6 episode of Teen Mom 2 we witnessed Leah Messer, 21, and her ex Corey Simms, 24, receive their three-year-old daughter Aliannah‘s congenital muscular dystrophy diagnosis. The doctor also informed the family that it was likely that Ali would need to use a motorized scooter in the near future, especially if she planned on attending school. During the follow-up Feb. 11 episode, Leah is faced with yet another difficult task — breaking Corey out of his denial of the situation.

Melbourne, January 30: Charlotte Hays has branded Jay Z as "a poor excuse for a husband".

The author of 'When Did White Trash Become the New Normal?' said that he wasn't surprised to see the 44-year-old American rapper looking pleased at his wife's "hypersexualised exhibition on stage" because he objectified his own wife on stage, News.com.au reported.

She added that he didn't want to watch the couple's foreplay and that they have "blurred the line between what goes on in their bedroom and what happens on national TV".

Hays claimed that the reason the husband of Beyonce stood smiling and singing as his scantily.

As all fans of the show know and for those that have just started to catch up on Community via bittorrent or Netflix (that’s okay, you’re forgiven) – Community is the story of a diverse group of community college students that attend probably the worst college in America; Greendale Community College, school motto E Pluribus Anus and their gender non-specific mascot the Human Being. It was initially centered around Jeff Winger aka Joel McHale as a disbarred self-obsessed lawyer who had to return to school to earn a law degree and the study group he formed grow into a show about friends, family and … well, that’s bullsh*t.

Today, we consider the fallout Zombie wrought from remaking a seminal film in the horror genre, John Carpenter's Halloween. Halloween With his 2007 Halloween remake, Zombie further confounded expectations and courted perhaps the most controversy and outrage the horror genre had ever seen. John Carpenter's Halloween is considered by its legion of devotees to be a sacrosanct, inviolable masterpiece. With its focus on Michael Myers' psychology and lifting the veil on the mystery surrounding its iconic boogeyman, Zombie's film was generally...

Richie Sambora is currently on tour with Bon Jovi, but he's also got a pretty surprising side gig: Fashion designer.The rocker recently launched his Autumn/Winter collection for his Nikki Rich line, a line he created with designer Nikki Lund. Featuring leather pants, blazers and dresses, it's an eclectic collection Lund describes as "military androgyny meets school-girl chic.""I've always been into fashion," Sambora says of the new line. "It's another extension and another way to create for me. Nikki and I had great chemistry immediately.

Chicago – William Friedkin’s “Killer Joe” is one of the most underrated films of 2012. Sure, it has its fans, but the movie made almost nothing in theaters (around $3.5 million worldwide) and didn’t make enough year-end lists for my tastes.

If you can handle your noir with a heavy dose of greasy malevolence, it’s a definite rental you’ll want to make.

Rating: 4.0/5.0

Matthew McConaughey rules as the titular hitman hired by a redneck moron involved in one of the most hysterically misguided contracted killings of all time. He’s charismatic and terrifying. The film falters a little bit when it leaves its theatrical roots but those moments are few and far between. If you love dark theater, intimate tales of bad people doing bad things badly, this is one for you.

Ubisoft’s Splinter Cell has been around for an entire decade and has become one of the best selling video game franchises of all time. The series’ strength is in its take on stealth to which it is now unparalleled in this arena having taken the crown from previous reigning champ “Thief” a long time ago.

Now with the franchise’s Seventh game Splinter Cell: Blacklist coming out later this year, it has finally been decided that a film should be made. In truth, this decision is not a new one and was also tried a few years ago with a teaser trailer attached to Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory foretelling of the imminent release, but fell through for a number of reasons. However with Ubisoft signing film deals for some of its major franchises (Assassin’s Creed: The Movie is also gathering up steam) a Splinter Cell film was the obvious next step.
