Inferno – Harvard symbolist Robert Langdon (Tom Hanks) wakes up in a hospital room in Florence, Italy, with no memory of what has happened in the past few days. Suddenly, he finds himself the target of a manhunt. With the help of Dr. Sienna Brooks (Felicity Jones) and his knowledge of symbology, he must foil a deadly global genocide scheme. He follows clues in Dante Alighieri’s The Divine Comedy and is taken to Florence and Venice, where he must race across a landscape of classic art, secret passageways, and futuristic science, all while solving the most intricate riddle he’s ever come across. Based on the book by Dan Brown. Click here for showtimes.

Oasis: Supersonic – From the early 1990s to their regrettable departure in 2009, this iconic band sold over 70 million albums worldwide and has a roster of 22 consecutive top 10 singles, claiming a spot in the Guinness Book of Records. The film is an essential look at the meteoric rise of the epochal band, immersing us in the raucous rock stars’ fast-paced world of electrifying music, wild debauchery, and epic fraternal feuding. Playing for one week only in select cities. Click here for showtimes.

Moonlight – Set in Miami during the war on drugs, the film tells the coming-of-age story of a young man named Chiron (Trevante Rhodes). Structured across three defining chapters in his life, we see him struggle as he battles a deteriorating home life and tries to find himself as he comes to terms with his sexuality. In the first chapter, we see him being bullied as a young boy, then as a teenager dealing with more intense bullying and questions about sexuality in the second chapter, and then finally concluding with Chiron’s life as a young adult. Opening in Toronto, then in select cities in coming weeks. Click here for showtimes.

The Handmaiden – In 1930s Korea, a pickpocket named Sookee is hired by a swindler posing as a Japanese Count. He wants her to help him seduce an heiress to elope with him, rob her of her fortune, and lock her up in a madhouse. Sookee agrees, and begins to work as a handmaiden to Japanese heiress Hideko, who lives a secluded life with her domineering uncle Kouzuki. The plan seems to be going well — until Sookee begins to fall for the vulnerable heiress. This is a limited release. Click here for showtimes.

I’m Not Ashamed – I’m Not Ashamed tells the real-life story of high school student Rachel Joy Scott, who put her life into God’s hands when all else seemed lost. This heartwarming film is based on real events and told through the perspective of Rachel’s poignant journal entries, before she became the first student killed in the Columbine High School shooting in 1999. However, this is not a tale of sadness, but rather, of hope and faith. This is a limited release. Click here for showtimes.

Miss Hokusai – As all of Edo flocks to see the work of the revered painter Hokusai, his daughter O-Ei toils diligently inside his studio. Her masterful portraits, dragons and erotic sketches — sold under the name of her father — are coveted by upper crust Lords and journeyman print makers alike. Shy and reserved in public, in the studio O-Ei is as brash and uninhibited as her father, smoking a pipe while sketching drawings that would make contemporary Japanese ladies blush. Despite this fiercely independent spirit, O-Ei struggles under the domineering influence of her father and is ridiculed for lacking the life experience that she is attempting to portray in her art. Opening in Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver. Click here for showtimes.
Trailer: Miss Hokusai
Shivaay – At first glance, Shivaay is just a Himalayan mountaineer with no exceptional skills or talent. However, this everyday mountain man actually has the ability to transform himself into a deadly destroyer. Rather than exploit this extraordinary, Earth-shattering power, Shivaay only uses his abilities to protect his loved ones from evil. Hindi w/ English subtitles. This is a limited release. Click here for showtimes.
