Cinequest: best bets for the final weekend

CLASS ENEMY
CLASS ENEMY

FRIDAY

  • Friended to Death: this sharply funny indie satirizes our obsession with social media. TMI becomes LOL.
  • Heavenly Shift: the hilariously dark (very dark) Hungarian comedy about a rogue ambulance crew with a financial incentive to deliver its patients dead on arrival.

SATURDAY

  • One of Cinequest’s most thought-provoking films, the Slovenian classroom drama Class Enemy.
  • The British crime lark Dom Hemingway with Jude Law – a probable crowd pleaser.

SUNDAY

  • The Encore Day selections have yet to be announced (except for The Farmer and the Chef and Slingshot), but I wouldn’t be surprised if one of Cinequest’s biggest hits so far, the Israeli caper comedy Hunting Elephants, gets another screening.
