Breaking and Entering (DVD)

Class-based drama directed by Anthony Minghella and starring Jude Law. Will Francis (Law) is a young London architect living a stable, if dreary existence with his girlfriend Liv (Robin Wright Penn) and her behaviourally challenged daughter Bea. When his posh, arty offices are repeatedly burgled, he plays detective hoping to nab the thief. Spotting a teenager (Rafi Gavron) attempting to break in, Will attempts to follow him. It's hard, not least because the youngster is a practitioner of the art of parkour - a mysterious urban tactic of running and jumping between buildings, over obstacles etc. The pursuit leads Will to the mysterious Amira (Juliette Binoche), a seamstress with whom he becomes involved, causing him to re-evaluate his life. Conflict arises when the police close in on the burglars, and Will must make a crucial choice which will affect the lives of everyone around him.
