Sommarnattens leende (1955)
In Sweden at the turn of the century, members of the upper class and their servants find themselves in a romantic tangle that they try to work out amidst jealousy and heartbreak.
Lively,
witty and civilized comedy of manners is perfectly staged and cast in
the sure hands of director Ingmar Bergman; sophisticated entertainment,
but maybe a bit dated for a contemporary audience.
Halliwell***: "Comedy of high period manners with an admirable detached viewpoint and elegant trappings."
Maltin***: "One of the finest romantic comedies ever made, a witty treatise on manners, mores, and sex..."

El caso Wanninkhof-Carabantes (2021)
In 1999, teen Rocío Wanninkhof is murdered. Her mother's ex-partner, Dolores Vázquez, is suspected. Did she do it? A second victim reveals the truth.
More than just a true crime documentary this film presents the case of an outrageous injustice and analyzes the prejudices and media hysteria that caused it.
