a little sad it wasn t eight hours long and never get enough rock opera never did it no but seriously the four four hours was was quite enough but a strong movie all right i m excited to see what a rock opera looks like and four hours but there s a big brazilian director there that s also at the film festival tell us more about that. the director of the netflix series. there s a lot of buzz around him he s pretty up and coming he s here with his new movie this movie is called seven days in entebbe and it is a film that is somewhat of a fictionalization based on the true advance of the hijacking of an air france flight in the seventy s that had several dozen israeli passengers on board and it was hijacked by some left wing revolutionaries and palestinian activists now i walked away from this movie it was sort of a mixed feelings i have to say because this film was supposed to be telling the story from the point of view of the hijackers and again it s a film about the israeli palestinian

berlin international film festival we have. david leavitt standing by for us again how you two so there s all sorts of stars great films give us an idea of what s been going on today. well happening right behind us at the moment is that for me are of a new film from last d.s. called an english season of the devil and it s a filipino film about a small town in the philippines struggling to survive under the marcos military dictatorship yeah and we should also mention this premiere started three hours ago this is a four hour long film and that s actually nothing new for a lot of diaz as one of the founding members of the slow cinema movement he was at the belly two years ago with an eight hour film so this is actually pretty short for him and it s pretty hard subject matter it s a very slow film but it s actually also a musical he s called it a rock opera so i have to say i was
