Liberté et patrie (2002) ****
Without Me (2002) ****
Undercover (2002) **
A spectator in a movie theater goes crazy when, on screen, he sees his girlfriend naked in bed with another man. A rather unique mix of cinema and performing arts.
An Erotic Tale (2002) **
Niko pens his Berlin tales on the counter of a funky bar behind the shark tank. What better place for a writer to pick up a girl? Along comes Sonja, who wants to know how the horny tale he’s now working on will end. So she invites Niko to finish his erotic tale over a drink at her apartment. There’s only one catch: Martin, her ex-husband, still hasn’t moved out of the place. Directed by Dito Tsintsadze.

Elbow Room: Distances (2002) **
Workplace conflicts are the theme of this unimpressive Canadian cartoon directed by Diane Obomsawin.

Amen (2002) *
Historical drama about Vatican's silence about the Holocaust during World War II. Politically straightforward, but narratively confusing.
The Quiet American (2002) *
Set in Vietnam in the late 1950's, it's a confusing film that tries to say something about American imperialism, but it's not entirely clear what exactly. Like "The Tailor Of Panama", it's a political thesis trying to squeeze inside a fictional film and failing miserably.
