The MIFF team ended up selecting eight titles that will captivate all film aficionados next month. Included in the list is FIPRESCI Prize Winner Blue Ruin by Jeremy Saulnier, a film that brings a new, more sinister voice to independent American cinema. French Director Claire Denis (35 Shots of Rum) will return with her mystery/thriller Bastards, while veteran director Alejandro Jodorowsky will show he’s still got it with The Dance of Reality.
