The story of One Piece has given rise to multiple theories that try to figure out what One Piece is and how it is connected to Joyboy, a mysterious figure in Eiichiro Oda’s universe. While some believe that One Piece is a weapon, others think that it is a comic book that inspired Joyboy to wage a war on the World Government.

The one thing that One Piece fans know is that the story of the treasure, Joyboy, Imu, the Gorosei, and the Ancient Kingdom is connected in some way, and when it is finally revealed to the world, it will change the dynamic of the One Piece universe.
There is one theory that unravels all of these mysteries together by explaining Joyboy’s real intention during the Void Century. It also reveals what the One Piece treasure could be and why Imu...

Following the October parliamentary election that saw the defeat of the right-wing Law and Justice party and appointment of leader of the opposition party Donald Tusk as prime minister, Polish filmmakers are cautiously readying for change.
“So far, our cinema authorities have not changed. It remains to be seen whether they will change their approach to funding more topical or controversial projects. Recent years have been very difficult in this regard,” says acclaimed director Agnieszka Holland.
Holland’s latest film, refugee drama “Green Border,” had been attacked by the right-wing government last year. Her next film, “Franz,” about Franz Kafka, is a Czech-German-Polish co-production to be sold at EFM by Films Boutique.
“We know everything and nothing about Kafka. There are dozens of detailed biographies and the reasons for his growing importance remain a mystery. I am trying to put this film together like a scattered jigsaw puzzle,” she adds.

Helsinki-based production company It’s Alive Films has boarded upcoming “Copernicus Secrets” as ca o-producer, joining Orka Studio’s Magdalena Zimecka (Poland) and 4film’s Anita Juka (Croatia.)
Recently, Orka co-produced Naomi Watts survival drama “Infinite Storm” by Małgorzata Szumowska and Michał Englert, as well as Marta Minorowicz’s “Illusion.”
“We like to try new things and we have never been involved in this kind of co-production before. Copernicus was an intellectual giant, whose vision had a tremendous effect on modern science. In a way, this story has been relevant since the 15th century,” said Finland’s Jani Pösö.
Running It’s Alive Films alongside director and longtime collaborator Teemu Nikki, Pösö is also behind “Euthanizer,” Finland’s 2018 Oscar submission, Venice-winning “The Blind Man Who Did Not Want to See Titanic” or children’s film “Snot & Splash – The Mystery of Disappearing Holes,” starring Pekka Strang.
Currently, the duo is shopping their new feature “100 Liters of Gold.

It takes nearly 12 minutes before Disney and Pixar show their title cards in Soul. By then, we’ve met a guy named Joe, basked in his dream to be a professional jazz pianist, and watched him fall down a manhole that’s led him to the other side. Now he’s being confronted with a bright multi-hued light called the Great Beyond, which draws souls to it like a bug zapper collects flies, and he’s understandably fleeing in the opposite direction.
To say that Soul is ambitious for a kids’ movie, or even a Pixar film, is an understatement. Here is a film for the whole family that deals with the terror of oblivion and thrusts its protagonist on a journey through a metaphysical cosmos which winkingly evokes the imagery of 2001: A Space Odyssey and Interstellar during its opening credits. Yet all of that is still just prologue...

Around the Sun is many things. Odd. Endearing. Vaguely romantic. Quirky. Studied. An exercise in thoughtful filmmaking and…about as far from your standard Hollywood fare as it is possible to get.
The action centres on a dilapidated manor in Normandy, France. Here, in the late 17th century, the film intimates, took place a series of encounters and conversations between a gallant philosopher – stand-in, perhaps, for author-cum-Scientist Bernard le Bovier de Fontenelle - and a high-born lady, la marquise.
This discourse is set out in Fontenelle’s Entretiens Sur La Pluralité Des Mondes (Conversations On The Plurality Of Worlds ). It is an interesting mix of science and knowing romance. As far as the science goes, it provides a defence of the heliocentric world view set out a century or so previously by Nicolaus Copernicus.
Yet by introducing more than a hint of courtly flirtation in the to and fro between philosopher and.
