Liam Cunningham and Sasha Luss have signed on for “The Last Front,” a Belgian-produced World War I movie.
Cunningham is best-known to legions of “Game of Thrones” fans as Davos Seaworth, but the Irish actor will swap the blood-stained battle for the Iron Throne for wartime Belgium. Luss, who took the titular role in Luc Besson’s latest thriller, “Anna,” will also star in the movie.
Julien Kerknawi will helm the picture, his feature directorial debut. It is adapted from his short “A Broken Man.” The short was shot in Flemish, but the movie will be in English. Harald House is producing, and its Kristian Van der Heyden will produce alongside Virginie Hayet.
“The Last Front” will follow a widower farmer-cum-war hero, Leonard (Cunningham) and his family as they are thrown into the midst of a war they do not understand. It is set during the first days of the...

“Lamunan Oi! A Punk Daydream” is a scattershot documentary that delves into the Indonesian Punk Scene. The high octane Indonesian punk scene is also inspired by indigenous Dayak tattooing and spirituality, blended with their own form of liberty loving Islamic spirituality. It is a strange brew of possibilities, with the punks bejewelled with tattoos as a badge of honour, with dreams of equality. Unfortunately for the punks, Indonesia is in a twilight zone of post-autocratic autocracy, where tattoos are forcibly tabooed. Any talk of liberty and equality, in a post-autocratic autocracy, is also going to cause some problems. The dark days of the dictatorship are at an end, even though democracy is functioning in some kind of fashion, much of the old guard are entrenched and still in cahoots with Western corporate interests.

They return to the city and are joined by others as they color the filthy streets red with their mohawks. In reality, the true story is much different. Street punks open up and talk about their fight against stigmatization, their desire for equality…...
