The following is a synopsis of the award-winning film at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival.
Titane:
Newcomer Agathe Rousselle plays Alexia, who has been in a car accident since childhood, due to her father's carelessness. As a result of the accident, Alexia's head had to be implanted with titanium plates. Alexia works as a dancer. Here she gets abused and makes her retaliate cruelly. As a result of this incident, Alexia fled. She did various extreme ways to change her identity to be like a boy.
Titane will be released at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival on July 14, 2021. Unfortunately, this film has not officially announced when it will be released.
Nitram
Justin Kurzel's selection of "Nitram" for the main competition at the Cannes Film Festival is guaranteed to create a stir in Australia.
Written by Shaun Grant, the film is based on the infamous Port Arthur Massacre of 1996 in Tasmania, in which 35 people were killed and 23 injured. Kurzel's retelling is understood to avoid portraying the murder directly and to avoid using the killer's name. His disguise, however, was deliberately thin. "Nitram" is the reverse spelling of Martin Bryant from the Port Arthur assassins.
On the one hand, "Nitram" will be celebrated as the first Australian film in the prestigious major for six years. On the other hand, placing the film on a pedestal risks reopening the wounds caused by the mass murders it describes but is not fully covered. The film has not officially announced when it will be released globally.
A Hero
The film stars Amir Jadidi as Rahim, a father of one child who is on a two-day leave from prison in the city of Shiraz, where he is serving a sentence for debt.
He has no job, and money to pay a debt to a shopkeeper, Bahram (Mohsen Tanabandeh), the miserly brother of his ex-wife. However, he has the support of his kind sister and her husband, as well as Farkhondeh (Sahar Golddust), as well as the girl he wants to marry. During his brief release from prison, Farkhondeh found a handbag at a bus stop containing 17 gold coins. Rahim considered selling the find but relented when he realized it would not cover the money he had.
Instead, when his conscience nudges him, he tries to find the owner of the bag, a dignified act that made him famous on television and even the local charity that gave him a possible job after his prison sentence is done. Rahim's only child who is quiet and sensitive with speech disorders is pleased with his father's success. The film is slated to be released on December 22, 2021, in France.
