The Childhood of a Leader (2015)
This stunning debut in auteurist filmmaking by actor-turned-director Brady Corbet is a snapshot in the life of a 10-year-old boy whose father is an American diplomat involved in the formation of the Treaty of Versailles, a peace treaty ratified in France in 1919 which ended the state of war

Beasts of No Nation (2015)
Cary Fukunaga’s war drama Beasts of No Nation is an outstanding contribution to cinema. Absorption of the film’s devastating content leaves one emotionally and spiritually ravaged.
