Sacramento Film Festival 2006 was a fascinating show.

The Sisters
Arthur Seidelman
www.persistent-ent.com

Based on Anton Chekhov's 'The Three Sisters', this modern telling follows four siblings, living in Manhattan, who struggle with the death of their father and try to reconcile relationships in their own lives. This amazing film is an actor's tour de force, starring Maria Bello (History of Violence), Mary Stuart Masterson (Law and Order), Eric McCormack (Will and Grace), and Chris O'Donnell (Scent of a Woman). If you like witty, intelligent cinema, you will love The Sisters.

 

                                                                                                                                       Binta and The Great Idea   Spanish filmmaker Javier Fesser brings the ACADEMY AWARD NOMINATED story of Binta Binta, a 7 year old girl who lives in a small charming village on the Casamance river in southern Senegal.
