A sprawling epic of family, faith, power and oil, movie is set on the incendiary frontier of California's turn-of-the-century petroleum boom. The story chronicles the life and times of one Daniel Plainview (Daniel Day-Lewis), who transforms himself from a down-and-out silver miner raising a son on his own into a self-made oil tycoon. When Plainview gets a mysterious tip-off that there's a little town out West where an ocean of oil is oozing out of the ground, he heads with his son, H.W. (Dillon Freasier), to take their chances in dust-worn Little Boston. In this hardscrabble town, where the main excitement centers around the holy roller church of charismatic preacher Eli Sunday (Paul Dano), Plainview and H.W. make their lucky strike. But even as the well raises all of their fortunes, nothing will remain the same as conflicts escalate and every human value - love, hope, community, belief, ambition and even the bond between father and son - is imperiled by corruption, deception and the flow of oil. Cast: Daniel Day-Lewis, Paul Dano, Ciar?n Hinds, Kevin J. O'Connor, Dillon Freasier. Directed by Paul Thomas Anderson

Babylen Tatarsky has found a place for himself in modern times. He works at an advertising agency that introduces and adapts foreign brands for a ‘Russian mentality’. This clever and sometimes unbelievably funny film, rife with special effects and surprising revelations uses simple language to talk about a complicated situation, in which former Young Pioneers have to start a new life in the advertising industry. The film is an adaptation of Victor Pelevin’s novel Generation ‘П’. Throughout the plot, many hallucinations are used, including Che Guevara’s speech on the degrading influence of television on humans. However, within this deformed reality a carefully reconstructed atmosphere of 90s Moscow (the background of the film’s action) can be clearly felt. Cast: Владимир Епифанцев, Михаил Ефремов, Андрей Фомин, Сергей Шнуров, Владимир Меньшов, Иван Охлобыстин, Рената Литвинова и др. Directed by: Виктор Гинзбург

Based on one of the most talked about books in years and a #1 New York Times best-selling phenomenon, THE HELP stars Emma Stone as Skeeter, Viola Davis as Aibileen and Octavia Spencer as Minny—three very different, extraordinary women in Mississippi during the 1960s, who build an unlikely friendship around a secret writing project that breaks societal rules and puts them all at risk. From their improbable alliance a remarkable sisterhood emerges, instilling all of them with the courage to transcend the lines that define them, and the realization that sometimes those lines are made to be crossed—even if it means bringing everyone in town face-to-face with the changing times. Cast: Jessica Chastain, Viola Davis, Bryce Howard, Allison Janney, Chris Lowell, Sissy Spacek, Octavia Spencer, Emma Stone, Cicely Tyson, Mike Vogel Directed by: Tate Taylor
