Titles A-Z
P
Northwest
Michael Noer's first solo project as a fiction film director balances on a knife's edge between harsh everyday realism and effectively gripping gangster film. The debut actor Gustav Dyekjær Giese is a discovery in the lead role, making it even harder to see him being swallowed up by the intoxicating life as a criminal.

Painless
The roots of Fascism are explored in a fantastically dark and disturbing allegory in a script by the man behind the Spanish genre hit 'Rec' - and of course with a certain spiritual kinship with new classics such as 'Pan's Labyrinth' and 'The Orphanage'.

Paradise: Hope
13-year-old Melanie is sent to an obesity camp where she cautiously finds new friends and falls secretly in love with the camp's doctor, 40 years her senior. A confrontational, but surprisingly sensitive and nuanced finale of Seidl's 'Paradise' trilogy, fearlessly played with both body and soul.

Paradise: Love
The uncompromising Austrian is back in controversial top form, as he turns his piercing gaze on sex tourism. A chubby, 50-year-old woman travels to Kenya and soon develops a taste for the local men - and they develop a taste for her money. Boundary-pushing in a thought-provoking way.

Paradise: Faith
A Catholic woman embarks on a lone crusade to Vienna's remote suburbs to spread God's word, but when her Muslim husband suddenly turns up, all hell breaks loose. The second part of Ulrich Seidl's trilogy skewers the return of religious fanaticism with a razor-sharp sense of the grotesque.

Pearblossom Hwy
An odd young couple's existential road trip through the desert landscapes of Southern California, in a film where dark tones and a sensitivity towards the vulnerability of youths is more important than a predetermined plot. In other words, Mike Ott is back at CPH PIX.

Penance
A schoolgirl is brutally murdered in front of her four friends, but none of them dare testify.

An epic and top-modern TV-series-based revenge thriller about guilt and punishment.

Pieta
Kim Ki-duk is still one of the most unique voices in Korean cinema. His films are often uncomfortable to watch, as they deal with human and moral decline told with a crass, but also abstract form of realism. With 'Pieta', he has returned in force to the international scene, which was also confirmed when he walked away with the Golden Lion at last year's Venice Film Festival.

Post Tenebras Lux
The latest film by Carlos Reygadas is also one of the most bizarre and controversial works in a long time. A partially autobiographical family film, an almost plot-less experiment and probably the closest you'll ever get to dreaming while awake. An unequalled film for anyone who dares submit to it.

Pretty Butterflies
Cinematic playfulness and self-consciousness mix with a pre-teenage story of the more crazy kind in the Italian director Salvatore Mereus's fascinating and bristling story 'Pretty Butterflies'.
