Rated 5.0/5 Stars 1 2 3 4 5 4.2 \| 4 rating	THE BOY IN THE STRIPED PAJAMAS Mark Herman 2008 \| European Showcase	10/26/2008
Rated 4.0/5 Stars 1 2 3 4 5 0.0 \| 1 rating	HEART OF FIRE Luigi Falomi 2008 \| Human Rights It must be very difficult to describe the effects of war and poverty on the innocents to us pampered westerners. This story is built around two parables -- the older original meaning of "turn the other cheek" and "the sins of the fathers". And our heroine, our voice, our thinker, is this beautiful fiery 10 year old girl. This isn't an easy film to see because it is about very young children sent to war -- but it is amazing nonetheless.	10/26/2008
Rated 5.0/5 Stars 1 2 3 4 5 4.5 \| 6 rating	DEPARTURES Takita Yojiro 2008 \| Spotlight on Japan I laughed. I cried. This is one of those quiet films that pulls you in from the very first scene right up next to this really nice guy. You are right there with him as he finds himself -- of all places -- in a surprisingly beautiful and moving Japanese ritual of transition. And it is all done with an exquisite blend of humor and dignity. Hopefully this one will be available on dvd. It''s a gem.	10/26/2008
