Film Festival Movies on TV at Cinema World

 @CignalTV’s CinemaWorld on channel 59 features foreign "indie" films entered in international film festivals

Watching several films in a marathon each day feels like being in the festival itself without paying for festival passes

Literature on synopsis and schedules is available on Cinema World Asia website https://cinemaworld.asia/schedule/

 (all foreign films have English subtitles)

Channel is an exposition of the diversity of culture, values, tradition, language, norms, landscape, situations and emotions across the continents

Conflicts though are universal differing in resolution

-Felt how an Afghan woman is tortured if pregnant and not married in Wajma

-Experienced how the Italian farmers love preparing food, enjoying meals together and how influential the police and the Mafia are in Mafia and Red Tomatoes

-Brought me to Saint-Petersburg in Russia figuring out how a single mother can make a tourist park work to save it in Love in Saint-Petersburg

-Introduced to Dafne, an extraordinary daughter with syndrome managing the grief of the loss of her mother and emotional state of her father through her wisdom, long walk and conversation

-Witnessed how couples in Sweden plan their weddings, work out divorce papers and live on boats in Greta's Wedding

-Brought me to a safari farm in Johannesburg South Africa following the changing behaviors of a grandfather, teenage boys, daughter and their relationships with each other in Nanny on Board in South Africa

-Observed how an introverted only son living with an absentee single mother cope with struggles in school and with his relationship with his mother in Sebbe. Disturbed with the escape choices Sebastian set up: self-destruction or disappearance

-Saw through the psyche of a refugee son in Macando Austria acting as the man of the house for his mother and two young sisters in the absence of a soldier father who died in the war. Witnessed his coming of age as influenced by young friends, older father image neighbor friend from responsible to mischievous, delinquent, hating eventually accepting

-Followed the turnaround in a waiter's life when he took on an identity of a mysterious writer living a life of lie in My Words, My Lie, My Life


At the comfort of your home theatre, watch how the stories are differently said, struggles resolved and how they deepen your understanding of the complexities and mysteries of being human
