Ek – The power of One is a story on Nandu (Bobby Deol) an orphan turned assassin who gets wrongly accused of a politician’s murder and is on the run. On his escapade on a train he meets Shekhar (Pradeep), who is homebound after fourteen years, they get chatting and Nandu finds all about his joint family and the wedding of Shekhar’s cousin that he is going to attend.
Anywhere but Home is a story on Brad and Kate who until now managed to avoid family Christmases, preferring exotic destinations to confronting their divorced parents. This year, a heavy fog causes all flights to be cancelled. At the airport in beachwear, the couple is interviewed on national television, which both their families watch. Caught red-handed, they cannot escape visiting each of their parents for the holiday.
Watchman is set in an alternate 1985 America in which costumed superheroes are part of the fabric of everyday society, and the "Doomsday Clock" - which charts the USA’s tension with the Soviet Union is permanently set at five minutes to midnight. When one of his former colleagues is murdered, the washed up but no less determined masked vigilante Rorschach sets out to uncover a plot to kill and discredit all past and present superheroes.
The International directed by Tom Tykwer, Interpol Agent Louis Salinger and Manhattan Assistant District Attorney Eleanor Whitman are determined to bring to justice one of the world’s most powerful banks. Uncovering illegal activities including money laundering, arms trading, and the destabilization of governments, Salinger and Whitman’s investigation takes them from Berlin to Milan to New York and to Istanbul. Finding themselves in a high-stakes chase across the globe, their relentless tenacity puts their own lives at risk as the bank will stop at nothing - even murder - to continue financing terror and war.
