The White Ribbon -- When strange accidents occur in a German village, they gradually take on the character of a punishment ritual.

The Sea Inside -- Based on the true story of Spaniard Ramo?n Sampedro (Javier Bardem), who fought a 30-year campaign to win the right to end his life with dignity.

In a village in Protestant northern Germany, on the eve of World War I, the children of a church and school run by the village schoolteacher and their families experience a series of bizarre incidents that inexplicably assume the characteristics of a punishment ritual. Who could be responsible for such bizarre transgressions?

Strange events happen in a small village in the north of Germany during the years just before World War I, which seem to be ritual punishment. The abused and suppressed children of the villagers seem to be at the heart of this mystery.
