In 1978 Aldo Moro, the Italian Prime Minister, was abducted by a faction of the Red Brigade to be held culpable for his crimes against humanity. This tense dramatisation of events follows one of the kidnappers, Chiara, as she moves from blind conviction to confused questioning of the Brigade's actions, and indeed her own motivation. Good Morning, Night is a powerful, haunting drama, disturbing, but also strangely redemptive in its depiction of the fallibility of fanaticism. find out more...

A masterful adaptation of David Peace's Ellroy-esque noir trilogy. In '1974', the first chapter, a rookie journalist looks to solve the increasingly vexing case of a serial killer on the loose.

Andrew Garfield gives a captivating performance as the idealistic journalist in way over his head. Highly recommended. find out more...
