Capitalism: A Love Story

To be confirmed

Michael Moore | USA | 2009 | Cast | Awards

Never one to shy away from controversy, Michael Moore returns to the issue he’s been examining throughout his career: the disastrous impact of corporate dominance on the everyday lives of Americans (and by default, the rest of the world). Moore takes us into the homes of ordinary people whose lives have been turned upside down by the global financial crisis; and he goes looking for explanations in Washington, DC and elsewhere. What he finds are the all-too-familiar symptoms of a love affair gone astray: lies, abuse, betrayal…and 14,000 jobs being lost every day. With both humour and outrage, this stunning domumentary explores a taboo question: What is the price that America pays for its love of capitalism?

Mae’r dadleuol Michael Moore yn ôl ac unwaith eto mae’n ymchwilio’r pwnc bu’n agos at ei galon trwy gydol ei yrfa: effaith drychinebus goruchafiaeth gorfforedig ar fywydau Americanwyr cyffredin. Ffilm ddogfen sy’n archwilio cwestiwn gwaharddedig: Pa bris mae America’n talu am ei chariad tuag at gyfalafiaeth?

The Road

(15) John Hillcoat | 2009 | 112’ | Cast | Awards

A frighteningly convincing view of a possible future, meticulous in creating its visceral beauty and horror, this brilliantly directed adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel stars Viggo Mortensen as an unnamed man traveling with his young son through a post-apocalyptic landscape. Man and boy head towards the coast, not knowing what, if anything, awaits them there, but trying to keep alive the idea of goodness and civilization in a world where survival is a daily struggle. As the world around them is dying, what endures is the love between father and son, and a final, tender affirmation of hope.

Ffilm sydd wedi ei gosod mewn tirwedd ôl-apocolyptaidd sy’n dangos dyfodol posibl brawychus o argyhoeddiadol. Viggo Mortensen sy’n chwarae rhan dyn sy’n teithio gyda’i fab tuag at yr arfordir, heb wybod beth, os unrhyw beth, sydd yn eu disgwyl yno. Tra bod y byd o’u cwmpas yn marw, yr hyn sy’n parhau yw cariad tad a mab, a chadarnhad terfynol tyner o obaith.
