 1. Invisible Life – April 3

What is the relationship? What is the family? What are bonds made up of? These are pretty normal questions with what the world believes to have very simple answers. But as Carl Von Clausewitz has said, in life, the simplest of problems are the most difficult. Invisible Life tells the story of two sisters. Once the better half of each other, growing tensions and stress lead them to take different paths. Both end up on the other end of the city, spiteful of each other and never wanting to meet again.

The two sisters are primarily kept apart by their borderline abusive father who does not want them to get back together again. But as fate would have it, destiny has different plans for the sibling duo. The film is set in the bustling and colorful 1950’s era Brazil and will be a dream come true to watch on screen.

 2. Tales From The Loop – April 3

Shows And Movies Coming to Amazon Prime

Tales from the Loop is a brand new science fiction Amazon Original TV Show that had long been kept under wraps.

Amazon has high hopes from Tales from the Loop, which they claim to be their answer to Netflix’s Stranger Things.

The trailer itself is pretty amazing. The Amazon Original tells the story of a small town, that lives atop a miracle machine called the Loop.

 10. Footloose – April 29

Shows And Movies Coming to Amazon Prime

Considered to be Kevin Bacon’s finest work, Footloose stars Bacon as Ren McCormack – a Chicago born and a raised teenager who moves to the small town of Bormont, Utah. The town has one peculiar law. Its conservative-minded administration has banned rock music and dancing – which they think is corrupting the minds of the youngsters. Ren McCormack, who loves both, decides to be the fire that starts a revolution to change this draconian law and make the town dance to his tunes (no pun intended). Footloose is a 1984 cult classic that is still revered by people of all generations to this date. The 2011 remake of the movie is not even close but it still does not disappoint.
