Kicking off 2021: Four films to watch on Mubi

3 February, 2021

We leave behind a ruthless 2020, which all of a sudden messed up all of our plans in terms of cinema (and not only), thus becoming the year of series binging, online festivals and catching up with our long watchlist, which might be the worst nightmare of any moviegoer used to running between theaters in order to catch the next premiere. With the cinemas still closed or shyly opening their doors to the public, this period can only feel like being in hibernation or on standby, so I come up with four auteur films, all available on Mubi, which might make our back and forth in our apartments more optimistic, more adventurous - two of the films roam the streets of New York, one takes place on a psychedelic planet and the other in the '70s Parisian bars and train stations.
