In which Dr. Maria reviews critically acclaimed Australian feature Jasper Jones, a tale of sleepytown murder set against a background of 1960s institutionalised racism. Although, to be honest, the team get quite distracted by weeds. ...Great film though.

Special-Occasion-Clayton tells Mikey all about the award winning, future-minded doco from Cyril Dion and Mélanie Laurent, Tomorrow (or Demain, in its native French). 'Anti-Leo' in approach, Tomorrow features real-world solutions for very small pieces of the planet's sustainability problem. ...But what would happen if these pieces all came together?

Special-Occasion-Clayton gives the rundown on the latest Studio Ghibli offering, The Red Turtle, a French/Japanese hand drawn co-production that features zero dialogue across themes of life, death and the natural world. But possibly the most important question with regards to a feature by the prestigious animation studio: just how many feels were felt?

Dr. Maria reviews new documentary David Lynch: The Art Life, a detailed look into the life of the celebrated cinematic auteur that includes footage from over 20 interviews that took place in Lynch's own home. Mike strays down a very Lynchian path, while Rob, Maria and Sarah stay happily in the gutter.

Dr. Maria reviews German comedy/drama Toni Erdmann, a hefty three hour depiction of an aging father's attempts to embarrass his fusty corporate daughter out of her straight-laced ways. And into, erm, 'nunches'. (You'll have to listen.) Due for a Jack Nicholson led remake in the near future, does Erdmann surpass the sad stereotypes surrounding the German sense of humour? Or add fuel to the trope-y fire?
