THE GHOST WRITER
Drama/Thriller
An unremarkable ghost-writer has landed a lucrative contract to redact the memoirs of Adam Lang, the former UK Prime Minister. After dominating British politics for years, Lang has retired with his wife to the USA. He lives on an island, in luxurious, isolated premises complete with a security detail and a secretarial staff.
Adam Lang is embroiled in a major scandal with international ramifications that reveals how far he was ready to go in order to nurture UK's "special relationship" with the USA.
Before the ghost writer has even closed the deal with the publisher, he gets unmistakable signs that the turgid draft he is tasked to put into shape inexplicably constitutes highly sensitive material - and very soon, his life is in danger.

PRINCE OF PERSIA – SANDS OF TIME
Adventure/Action
Set in the mystical lands of Persia, a rogue prince and a mysterious princess race against dark forces to safeguard an ancient dagger capable of releasing the Sands of Time - a gift from the gods that can reverse time and allow its possessor to rule the world.
The film starts with a whirling battle, which is soon won by three bothers. But there is treachery afoot. Dastan, the foster brother, is told to give his father a glorious robe. No sooner does the king put it on, that he screams, writhes and dies. The robe was poisoned and the finger of guilt points to Dastan.
Dastan takes flight with his two angry brothers and the slippery, sly uncle in hot pursuit. But things are, as you may expect, not exactly what they seem, especially when the captive Princess Tamina reveals her magical skills and evokes the power of a special dagger.
