“Fascinating, mind-expanding, infuriating and bewildering…” – Screen International

“Engrossing” – Hollywood Reporter

Synopsis:

What if we are living in a simulation, and the world as we know it is not real?

To tackle this mind-bending idea, acclaimed filmmaker Rodney Ascher (ROOM 237, THE NIGHTMARE) uses a noted speech from Philip K. Dick to dive down the rabbit hole of science, philosophy, and conspiracy theory.

“An exemplary historical documentary.” The NY Times 

“[W]hat “MLK/FBI” drives home: The more we see King as a human and not an icon, the greater his accomplishments become.” – Chicago Sun Times

“MLK/FBI is a perceptive reminder that this uphill struggle is ongoing and nothing new.” – A.V. Club

MLK/FBI performs the vital task of examining J. Edgar Hoover’s relentless campaign of surveillance and harassment against Martin Luther King, Jr. Today when King is celebrated across political spectrums as a moral hero, it’s jolting to confront the years when US agents targeted him as a villain.

Inspired by the work of historian David Garrow, the film uses recently declassified files to study the FBI’s motives and methods. In the 1950s and ’60s, when Black people started mobilizing to fight racial discrimination, Hoover saw the movement as a communist plot. Rather than support equality, the FBI sought to undermine King through wiretapping and blackmail, in what former FBI director James Comey calls “the darkest part of the bureau’s history.”

Starring Leslie Odom Jr.

Directorial debut by Regina King.

On the night of Feb. 25, 1964, in Miami, Cassius Clay joins Jim Brown, Sam Cooke, and Malcom X, and they discuss the responsibility of being successful black men during the civil rights movement.

“The fact that everything they discuss is still so relevant-if not more urgent than ever-makes this more than a mere exercise in re-creating history. The language crackles and the performances shine.” – Leonard Maltin

“Regina King makes an assured feature directing debut with “One Night in Miami,” an engrossing adaptation of Kemp Powers’s 2013 stage play.” – Ann Hornaday, Washington Post

“Soaring. An enchanting tale.” – Los Angeles Times

“Thrilling! A movie that expands your sense of what is possible.” – NY Times

” A breathtaking documentary that shows when we encourage our daughters, amazing things happen.” – VICE

The Eagle Huntress follows Aisholpan, a 13-year-old girl, as she trains to become the first female in twelve generations of her Kazakh family to become an eagle hunter, and rises to the pinnacle of a tradition that has been handed down from father to son for centuries.

Set against the breath-taking expanse of the Mongolian steppe, it features some of the most awe-inspiring cinematography ever captured in a documentary, giving this intimate tale of a young girl’s quest the dramatic force of an epic narrative film.

3,644 people came to see Ove in 2016 and now one of Real Art Ways’ most beloved films is back!

“Cinematic comfort food.” – NY Times

“Manages to fuse melodrama with dark comedy and — no small feat — make it work.” – Washington Post

Stepping from the pages of Fredrik Backman’s international best-selling novel, A Man Called Ove is the quintessential angry old man next door. An isolated retiree with strict principles and a short fuse, who spends his days enforcing block association rules that only he cares about, and visiting his wife’s grave, Ove has given up on life.

Enter a boisterous young family next door who accidentally flattens Ove’s mailbox while moving in and earning his special brand of ire. Yet from this inauspicious beginning an unlikely friendship forms and we come to understand Ove’s past happiness and heartbreaks.

What emerges is a heartwarming tale of unreliable first impressions and the gentle reminder that life is sweeter when it’s shared.

“There aren’t enough words to describe just how breathtaking Davis’s performance is as Ma Rainey.” – Washington Post

“transcendent…” – RogerEbert.com

“Viola Davis’ Ma bursts through the screen and confinements of Rainey’s era, standing tall and vibrant in each buttery frame of the film.” – NBC News
