XX/XY. This decade-spanning tale of romance, which competed at Sundance last year, explores the three-way relationship that a trio of collegians enjoyed in the nineties before flashing forward to examine what the three have gone on to achieve—or not achieve—ten years later.  Mark Ruffalo, who has yet to capitalize on his wonderful three-year-old notices for playing Laura Linney’s layabout brother in You Can Count on Me, leads the cast. XX/XY screens at 2:25, 4:50, 7:45 and 10:05 p.m. (BJS)

THE MAN WITHOUT A PAST. By all accounts, this new offering from veteran Finnish filmmaker Aki Kaurismaki is a bizarre, eclectic offering, trafficking heavily in dark humor and kitschy music.  Kaurismaki focuses his story on an injured, amnesia-addled man who falls in love with the woman who nurses him back to health.  The film won three awards at last year’s Cannes Film Festival, including Best Actress and the Grand Jury Prize, and in February became the first film from Finland to ever be nominated for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. The Man Without a Past screens at 2:20, 4:40, 7:15 and 9:35 p.m. (BJS)

DIVINE INTERVENTION. Palestinian director-writer Elia Suleiman addresses the strife between his homeland and Israel in this deliberately composed, frequently absurd comedy.  Suleiman also plays the film’s quiet protagonist, unimaginatively named E.S.  This is not to say that Suleiman does not let his imagination run wild elsewhere in the work; one much-dicussed dream sequence depicts a woman who suddenly rebels against the soldiers using her for target practice, taking the offensive in a blaze of martial arts fury.  The film won two awards at last year’s Cannes Film Festival. Divine Intervention screens at 2:35, 4:55, 7:25 and 9:50 p.m. (BJS)
