Bang Gang (A Modern Love Story)
There are always a few festival titles which promise to bring the sex on screen. This is certainly this year's entry, from France, naturally. Young people play at dares and mind games with their sexuality set to a pulsing score and likely a busted taboo or two. - Kurt Halfyard

The intimate and gentle Japanese auteur, Kore-eda Hirokazu, returns with his latest film.
