"There's nothing harder to find than lost love." Gravitas Ventures has debuted an official trailer for a British comedy called The Man in the Hat, which already opened in the fall in the UK last year. Now arriving in the US this May. The Man in the Hat takes us on a journey through France in a Fiat 500 accompanied by a framed photograph of an unknown woman. He is pursued by five angry men in a Citroën Dyane... Why are they chasing him? And how can he shake them off? Only way to find out is to watch! Ciarán Hinds stars as "The Man In The Hat", joined by Stephen Dillane, Maïwenn, Sasha Hails, Muna Otaru, Brigitte Roüan, Xavier Laurent, & Claire Tran as "The Storyteller". This looks adorable! And gorgeous, all that French countryside. Oh my. I also like that this trailer is dialogue free, selling the story with all the imagery.

Palestine’s Oscar® 2019 Entry for the Best International Feature ‘It Must Be Heaven’Elia Suleiman’s ‘It Must Be Heaven’, sweetly surreal, as whimsical as a Jacques Tati film, and with a hilarious cameo with Gael Garcia Bernal introducing Suleiman to his agent, wryly observes our human race.
Es escapes from Palestine, putting away his parents’ effects, and sets out to seek an alternative homeland only to find that the absolute absurdities of his home in Palestine are equal to those in “the west”. Palestine trails behind him and the promise of a new life turns into a comedy of drole misteps taking him from Paris to New York and back to what must be heaven.
From the award-winning director Elia Suleiman, this comic saga explores identity, nationality and belonging, in which Suleiman asks the fundamental question: where is the place we can truly call home?
