Travelling Alone is a movie about men. More precisely, it's about what's absolutely left to be said, on the social and artistic levels, about male sexuality. Travelling Alone is a cinematographic meditation on men and their libidos. This film tells the story of a man who brutally finds himself confronted with the vicissitudes of his own desire. Little boys are not taught that their virility, their capacity for turgescence, may one day go bankrupt. What happens then? What happens when a man, still young, discovers that his best years are behind him? That his life, from then on, will be an endless work of mourning his access to sexual pleasure? Such is the topic of Travelling Alone: a man who searches his past to find the first signs of what was going to be his fate as an adult.

A haunting, deeply moving documentary set among terminally ill cancer patients. The titular island of Steven Eastwood’s feature documentary is the Isle of Wight, where the filmmaker befriended a handful of individuals facing a terminal cancer diagnosis. Following them as they approach the end – through hospital appointments, time with family – this is a stark portrait, acutely attuned to the consoling rituals and stark realities of the dying process. Combining observational footage of his subjects with contemplative shots of the surrounding coastal landscapes through the changing seasons, this deeply felt meditation on the passage from life to death is imbued with an unsensational matter-of-factness and resonant lyricism. A necessarily harrowing film, revealing through scenes of unblinking duration the final stages of the disease’s progress on its sufferers, The Island is also a film of enormous delicacy, made in a spirit of tender respect for every one of the people involved.

In the working-class neighborhoods of France, trust is broken between young people and the police. The slightest identity check carries within it the germs of a possible skid, rebellion or blunder. A case is emblematic of this impasse. For the first time in France, teenagers filed a complaint collectively for intentional violence against a police brigade of the 12th arrondissement of Paris. During this trial, it is the very mission of the police that will be indicted. Citizens, educators, lawyers or police officers, look for a way out and denounce the systematic use of violence that they consider illegitimate. By following their fight, this film lifts the veil on the mechanisms of this violence and the silences that surround it.

Last month, Gzuz released his second solo album, "Wolke 7" (Cloud 7). Just two or three months prior, he was on tour with his entire crew, traveling throughout Germany, Austria, and Switzerland for the entire month of March. The sheer scale of their success becomes even more apparent when you consider the venues where the five Hamburg natives now perform. They couldn't find a single venue that didn't hold at least 1,000 people. In their hometown, even the local sports arena was too small to accommodate all their fans, so the concert was moved to the Barclaycard Arena. But it's not just the size of the venues that has changed: they're also now wowing audiences with an amazing stage design, which recreates a section of their neighborhood (including a tattoo parlor). We followed the guys to their concerts in Berlin, Bremen, Hamburg, and Hanover and found out where the best hiding places are on the tour bus.
