Synopsis
Ida Ramundo is the widowed mother of 15-year-old teenager Nino in Rome during WWII. She has a secret: Ida is of Jewish descent. But when she is assaulted by a German army soldier, things turn from bad to worse. In pain, dismay, and ashamed, Ida discovers she is pregnant, and, nine months later, secretly gives birth to another boy, who will be lovingly nicknamed Useppe. The family is further shaken by the events of the war: Nino decides to leave for the front to fight the Fascists, leaving his mother and little Useppe in an apartment in Rome’s San Lorenzo neighborhood to cope with the Nazi occupation and roundups. In the July 1943 bombing, Ida loses everything and is forced to leave. But the moments of deep humanity Ida will experience along the way serve as a guiding light through the struggle for her own survival and that of her child.

The police officers of Cap-aux-Meules are overwhelmed by the violence of the crime but Surprenant leads his team with tact. He learns that the investigation has been entrusted to Chief Inspector Sébastien Gingras, an arrogant rival dispatched from Quebec City. Tension quickly mounts between the two men as the list of suspects grows longer. Fortunately, Surprenant can count on his colleague Geneviève Savoie to help him solve the murder. In this isolated archipelago where everyone knows everyone, the murder of young Rosalie shakes up the small community of the Madelinots and puts all the inhabitants of the Islands and their secrets under the spotlight.

Synopsis
In an idyllic community nestled on the Kentish coast, the murder of a local young woman sends ripples of shock and gossip through the town. When the respected village doctor, Tom Fairchild, is arrested, all prying eyes turn to his wife, Beth. Beth’s background is very different from the affluent suburbia she married into, and she is determined to protect her family and their reputation above everything. However, when Tom is exonerated due to a lack of evidence, Beth uncovers proof of her husband’s double life and dark sexual proclivities, forcing her to re-examine everything she knew about the man she married. As cold cases reopen and more dead women are linked to Tom, Beth’s own past becomes headline news, leading her to seek help from Adam, her husband’s best friend. As Beth peels away the layers of her supposedly perfect life, she’ll be forced to confront disturbing questions about herself and her marriage: Has she ignored signs of her husband’s violence all along? And does she truly know the man she vowed to spend her life with?

Synopsis
On his wedding day, Paul is shocked by the unexpected return of Joseph, his childhood sweetheart whom he hasn’t seen for twenty years. This shock brings back searing memories of the summer of 1983, when they first met as teenagers. Their relationship, both intense and forbidden, was marked by a dazzling love, but also by violent homophobic harassment that broke them apart. Paul finds himself overwhelmed by doubts about his life choices, particularly his marriage, and the emotions linked to this past love. He relives that period of his youth, when their bond caused tensions in their circle, leading to a tragic night that turned their lives upside down forever. Through Joseph’s return, Paul must confront his past and question what he has lost by choosing to bury this love. The film explores themes of homophobia, regret and the search for identity, blending passion and tragedy in deep introspection.
