Japan/2009/93 mins

Living in rural Japan in 1955, Shinko is an adventurous nine-year-old with a vivid imagination and a love of history. She spends her time running through the fields and pondering what it would be like to live in her village when it was the centre of imperial rule one thousand years ago. When the shy Kiiko moves into the area from the hustle and bustle of Tokyo, Shinto introduces her to new friends, rural life, and the power of imagination. Writer/director
Katabuchi's apprenticeship with Hayao Miyazaki is clearly visible in this debut feature film, which will delight young and grown-up anime enthusiasts alike.

FROM TIME TO TIME 10+

language English
director Julian Fellowes
United Kingdom/2009/92 mins

Adapted from Lucy Boston's The Chimneys of Green Knowe, this haunting tale of adventure depicts England during both the Napoleonic and Second World wars as 13-year-old Tolly renews his relationship with his grandmother. While awaiting news of his father who is missing in action in Germany, Tolly slips back in time and becomes embroiled in two mysteries surrounding the kind-hearted Susan and the runaway slave Jacob. The somewhat dreary and grey depiction of winter in 1940s Britain is placed against the vivid springtime of the early 1800s in a film that offers a superb British cast, engaging storytelling, and the occasional unexpected fright for all ages.

LITTLE WHITE LIES 10+

language German
director Marcus H Rosenmuller
Germany/2008/103 mins

Innocent lies give rise to serious complications for thirteen-year-old Alexander in this parable set against the backdrop of Nazi Germany in the early 1930s. When older student Langer joins his class, Alexander finds himself compromised and, in a series of events caused by his own dishonesty, his classmates begin to torment a student in the rival class. As Langer begins to organise the students into a gang of brown- scarf-wearing rascals, it becomes clear what Alexander's little white lies have begun. With slap-stick humour and appealing stylistic sensibilities for young audiences, Little White Lies also holds adult attention through its carefully placed historical references and moral significance.

The real danger for the children is the threat of being separated and sent to an orphanage.

director Anna Rodgers
Laos, Ireland/2009/85 mins

A rare view of life for young people in Laos, this quiet observational documentary charts the journey of 11-year-olds, Leh and Bo. Their parents appreciate the need for the two young friends to receive an education and leaving the small rural community for a Buddhist monastery is the only pathway available to the boys. Young audiences will find many moments of identification in Leh and Bo's story even though their lives are very different. Buddhist proverbs and phrases interweave with the boys' rite of passage and provide contemplative anchors to the images of majestic surroundings.

A new school term appears to offer a fresh start for students as Noguchi, a student previously bullied by the class, has transferred schools. His departure occurs at the same time as the appointment of a stuttering substitute teacher, Mr Murachi, who seems intent on frustrating the class and reigniting debate between the students, parents, and school administration by keeping Noguchi's vacant desk and chair in the classroom. Rather than allowing the students to simply write a reflection and forget, Mr Murachi wants the students to accept personal
responsibility for their behaviour.

The path to adulthood is complicated for the street smart yet friendly Stella. She appears more at home in her parents' bar entertaining the customers than at school with children her own age. However, the bohemian lifestyle chosen by her parents may not be all that it is cracked up to be. When Stella meets Gladys, a middle-class girl with a love of the arts and learning, she is offered an alternative and, perhaps, more promising future. Stella is a sensitive, memorable, and semi-autobiographical portrayal of growing up in Paris in the 1970s.

When Kay's boisterous and unstable sister Sweetie decides to move in, Kay's relationship is placed under further stress. As Sweetie desperately hangs on to her dream of working in show business, their parents decide to separate. A dark comedy featuring the hallmarks of a Campion film, Sweetie is an unusual yet strangely familiar observation of Australian family life.
