DE GAULLE: TILTING IRON
An epic two-part historical saga that plunges audiences into the decisive hours of WWII through the eyes of General Charles de Gaulle, and the men and women who refused to surrender as France was collapsing under Nazi occupation….. June 1940. France collapses and signs the Armistice. In the midst of the chaos, one man, Charles de Gaulle, refuses to give up. Taking the ultimate gamble he flees to London and seeks to convince the world that the battle for France is neither over or lost. What follows next is a triumphant story of faith, audacity and an unshakeable quest for freedom. Antonin Baudry has crafted a powerful and dramatic view of a man at the very centre of a turning point in history, on his path to becoming a 20th century leader and cultural icon. The reality of intense politics, family struggles and the impact of war are deftly drawn in this geopolitical thriller, which has been more than five years in the making. Simon Abkarian commands the screen as the titular General, leading a stand-out ensemble cast including Benoît Magimel, Mathieu Kassovitz, Francois Darlan, Niels Schneider and the César-winner Anamaria Vartolomei (The Count of Monte Cristo). The talented Simon Russell Beale (The Choral) rounds out the cast as Winston Churchill, with the film exploring the complex relationship between De Gaulle and the British Bulldog. ..

SAVAGE HOUSE
Directed by Peter Glanz Starring Richard E. Grant, Jack Farthing, Sebastian Armesto, Claire Foy, Bel Powley, Roger Ashton-Griffiths, Kíla Lord Cassidy, Michael Culkin, Pip Torrens, Dominic Charman, Richard McCabe, Vicki Pepperdine, Robert Bathurst Set against the backdrop of 18th century England, a massive pox outbreak, and Jacobite uprising – this is a timely and darkly satirical story of Sir Chauncey Savage and Lady Savage and their blind pursuit of a better life. It is not without a tinge of irony that their family name is the Savages, for this is a Savage House indeed. Filled with duels, decadence, and bloodshed, this is a madcap play on class and power.
