Film show: 'Rosalie', a rural love story with a twist
Issued on:
"Bearded ladies" were once a regular feature of travelling circuses in the 19th century, a phenomenon that French director Stéphanie Di Giusto has incorporated in her latest film, "Rosalie". Film critic Lisa Nesselson tells us why this rural tale of arranged marriage managed to charm her. We also take a look at Romanian drama "Holy Week", a meditation on the dangers of prejudice and insularity, while Tunisian film "Behind the Mountains" brings a little magical realism to a father-son relationship.
