Vampir-Cuadecuc Welcome to this week's Stay-At-Home Seven - check out last week's here and our Streaming Spotlight on Sundance With Subtitles.
Beautiful Things, We Are One, From June 3 for seven days
This hybrid documentary from Italy - a symphony of consumerism and waste - is one of several great features and shorts available to watch as part of YouTube's We Are One online film festival. Giorgio Ferrero and Federico Biasin's film is built partially on monologues as four men outline their work - descriptions that stretch beyond their own lives to more philosophical considerations of acquisitiveness and connection. The film is screening from June 3 at 10.25pm for seven days. Read our full review here and our interview with Giorgio Ferrero.

Golden Globe-winner Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Emile Hirsch, Paz Vega, and Golden Globe and Emmy-winner Jeremy Piven will star in American Night, a neo-noir thriller helmed by first-time film director Alessio Jim Della Valle.
Written by Della Valle, the plot follows Michael Rubino (Hirsch) who has just become the Don of the New York Mafia, but his greatest dream is to devote his life to painting and become a great artist. John Kaplan (Meyers), an art dealer, may feel like his life is in shambles, but he still has the best eye for spotting fakes in the world. Their paths, apparently distant, cross when Andy Warhol’s Pink Marilyn is stolen, setting off a series of unexpected events that upend their lives.
Vega will play Sarah,...

Other winners at the 15th Cph:dox are Wild Relatives, Laila At The Bridge and False Confessions.
Cph:Dox’s top award, the Dox:award was presented tonight to Marcus Lindeen’s The Raft (Swe-Den-us-Ger).
The film is about a social experiment in 1973, when 11 people were brought together on a raft for three months, sailing the Atlantic Ocean, so their behaviour could be studied by a radical Mexican anthropologist.
As well as using archive footage, Lindeen reconstructed the raft and reunited the participants together again in a film studio to look back on their experiences. The replica raft was also shown as...

Giorgio Ferrero: 'The objects are compressing our lives and I decided to create a dichotomy between our oppressive life with the objects and the silent life around the characters' Giorgio Ferrero's Beautiful Things, which he co-directed with Federico Biasin, is the latest in the current trend of documentary hybrids that defy easy classification. Using the stories of four men from radically different countries and backgrounds - one on a Us oil field, another on a cargo ship, a scientist and an incinerator operator - he gradually builds a connection that explores our relationship with consumerism and waste. The entire enterprise is scored so that it, in turn, builds to form a symphony of music and objects, interrogating our attitude to acquisition in the modern world.
Ferrero spoke to me from Venice Film Festival, where his film is one of this year's three films to benefit from the Biennale College mentoring and development system,...
