“The wind that stirs the barley”
The great Ken Loach travels to Ireland in 1920 to take a heartfelt look at a group of characters who stand as banners of the revolutionary struggle against the English. “The Wind That Shakes the Barley,” a beautiful title from a popular song, depicts the fight for Irish independence, but takes a step forward halfway through its length: the protagonist must face the loss of his dreams in the face of a fratricidal battle , which arises between those who accept independence, albeit under the head of state of the King of England, and those who commit to continuing the armed struggle until total independence. The core of the film explodes with the question to an IRA militiaman: “How does it feel to kill an Irishman?” The film's transparent images, in which the sequences seemingly just flow, reveal the essence of cinema like no other by Ken Loach.

“The Battleship Potemkim”
What, for many, is still the best film ever made must leave film schools once and for all to show all fans the greatness of Eisenstein, a director who revolutionized the grammar of cinema and laid the foundation for the power of Montage put: An image has meaning when those who precede it and those who follow it are added. Eisenstein approaches the sailors on a ship who are working in inhumane conditions; If their officers try to force them to eat tainted meat, a revolution will begin that will spread across Russia. It is the work of a filmmaker eternally at odds with his country's censorship and with Stalin himself, who mutilated his next masterpiece, October.
