Lion (2016)


A true story. A deep touching movie, again without the "american style" idiocy, but still with some violence for the mind, if not the body. Plus, you get to learn about real India, not the Bombay/ND/Bangalore cosmopolitan centers, but what happens around it, the lack of development together with the effort of some to push it into the XXth century. Yes, I know, we're in the XXIth, but huge parts of India are still lagging behind.

The Lunchbox (2013)


A nice indian movie, not to miss. No "american style" happy endings, no "american style" violence, just a pure human movie, about human emotions, that trasverse the entire World.
Not to miss.

4 out of 5.

Emperor (2012)


A movie that's not typical american, historically accurate (kind of), and talking about of part of history that's not much in the highlights. Who wants to know what happens after one side wins ? Well, that's a time-continuum, so yes, it's important to know, how it went. That's what the movie talks about. Furthermore, no fake happy endings, just real ones.
