Breakfast at Tiffany’s

The names Audrey Hepburn and Holly Golightly have been synonymous ever since Truman Capote’s sparklingly fun and romantic comedy was adapted into a film.

Heavy Trip

Turo, a small northern village’s own son, doesn’t care about hockey or fixing cars. In his free time, he is the lead singer of the hardest (and only) metal band in the area. Through a series of unexpected events, Turo and his bandmates get the chance of a lifetime—to leave their hometown behind and take the stage at Norway’s biggest heavy metal festival. The news spreads like wildfire, and the entire village celebrates their success. However, getting there won’t be that easy.

Turo’s heart is thrown into turmoil by the lovely Miia, a florist, who also happens to be admired by the village’s local celebrity—smooth-talking schlager star and Turo’s arch-nemesis, Jouni Tulkku. On their journey to the festival, Turo must overcome his stage fright to prove to himself, his bandmates, and Miia that he is a man of his word. But achieving this goal becomes even more challenging when the band accidentally sparks the first armed conflict in history between Finland and Norway—and takes a detour straight into the Vikings’ hell.

Lee

Lee is a compelling biographical drama in which Kate Winslet delivers a powerful performance as photographer Lee Miller. Directed by Ellen Kuras, the film tells the extraordinary story of Miller’s life—how she transitioned from the fashion world and art circles of the 1920s into a fearless war photographer. Her work on the frontlines of World War II was not just about documentation but also a profound journey toward confronting the horrors of war and her own past.

The film portrays Miller’s relentless pursuit of exposing the brutal reality of war and its impact on people. One of history’s most famous war photographs—Miller in the bathtub of Hitler’s residence—holds special significance in the film. The cast also includes Alexander Skarsgård, Josh O’Connor, and Marion Cotillard. Lee is a powerful story of courage, the search for truth, and the lasting scars of war.

His ultimate destination is the Alaskan wilderness, where he plans to live self-sufficiently, entirely at the mercy of nature. Along the way, he meets many people who influence his worldview.
