FRANCES HA
Directed by Noah Baumbach
R, 86 min
Visit the official site
A valentine to New York City, "Frances Ha" is "a deft, uproarious comedy" (Scott Tobias, The AV Club) from acclaimed director Noah Baumbach ("The Squid and the Whale", "Greenberg") with a wildly inventive comic performance from Greta Gerwig, who also co-wrote the script. Todd McCarthy of The Hollywood Reporter called it, "Exhilarating, smart and delightful. A terrific new film that's incredibly rich to watch. Greta Gerwig is embraceable, unpredictable and possessed of gifts for physical comedy. This is unquestionably her defining performance to date.
"Frances Ha" has charmed audiences at Telluride, Toronto International Film Festival and the New York Film Festival, and IFC Films is proud to be releasing the film in May in New York and Los Angeles before a nationwide rollout. (c) IFC Films

STORIES WE TELL
Directed by Sarah Polley
PG-13, 108 min
Visit the official site
In this inspired, genre-twisting new film, Oscar®-nominated writer/director Sarah Polley discovers that the truth depends on who’s telling it. Polley is both filmmaker and detective as she investigates the secrets kept by a family of storytellers. She playfully interviews and interrogates a cast of characters of varying reliability, eliciting refreshingly candid, yet mostly contradictory, answers to the same questions. As each relates their version of the family mythology, present-day recollections shift into nostalgia-tinged glimpses of their mother, who departed too soon, leaving a trail of unanswered questions. Polley unravels the paradoxes to reveal the essence of family: always complicated, warmly messy and fiercely loving. Stories We Tell explores the elusive nature of truth and memory, but at its core is a deeply personal film about how our narratives shape and define us as individuals and families, all interconnecting to paint a profound, funny and poignant picture of the larger human story.
