Episode 63 - Last Men In Aleppo - a podcast by One Week Only - Podcast

Episode 62 of One Week Only! Conor is still abroad, speaking this time from a London hostel! Our key film this week is the documentary "Last Men in Aleppo" about the men of The White Helmets, the volunteer force in Syria who help the victims of the horrendous bombings of the ongoing Civil War. Capturing incredible footage of horrible scenes of carnage, the film transports you to a terrifying environment, which only highlights the stunning bravery of the White Helmets, and the sacrifices they make every day for their families and their city. (41:40)

We also review the Danish period drama "The Commune" directed by Thomas Vinterberg (check out Carlos's interview with Vinterberg for MovieMaker Magazine) (3:25); the 2003 teen comedy "Burning Annie" that's getting a HD re-release, directed by Van Flesher (11:05); the Polish period biopic "Afterimage" about the famous avant-garde painter Wladyslaw Strzeminski, directed by Andrzej Wajda (21:55); and the Venice-winning drama "The Woman Who Left" from the Philippines, directed by Lav Dias (31:00).
