Cooler by the lake ...

Taiwan's Tsai Ming-liang started the millennium brilliantly ("What Time Is It There?," "Goodbye, Dragon Inn," "I Don't Want to Sleep Alone") but slumped with "Stray Dogs." We eagerly anticipate a return to form with his latest, "Days."

A story of two California fires and their impact on the communities, "Bring Your Own Brigade."

A somber coming of (middle) age story, from Italy, "The Macaluso Sisters."

Four other women, dealing with individual crises, are brought together by an incident on the subway in a debut film, "Materna."

A documentary that curates scraps of films from Afghanistan's communist era, "What We Left Unfinished."
