Filmrecensies van Ulkar Alakbarova

The informative yet heartbreaking narrative of Generation Utøya reminds us of the importance of youth education, being open-minded and less judgemental towards those we do not consider our own. Recensie

The film is far from being great. But it’s informative, which is what matters the most. Though it’s an influential subject matter, the film leaves little room for imagination, which should have been the other way around. But if you keep an open mind, allow the documentary subjects to tell their side of the story, it becomes a much easier piece to watch. Recensie

The Other Morgan is a clever comedy that provides food for thought. A bit philosophical, it teaches the importance of not underestimating our life because what is seen as a failure for us can be a big success for others. Recensie

Offseason is an atmospheric horror film with an impressive taste. From start to end, it is a fast-paced narrative that, without the talented cast, would be much harder to pull off. Recensie
