\nWith seven days before the titular final exam and summer vacation, a talented substitute teacher must prove himself worthy of rehiring while trying to financially care for his ailing grandma, deal with his troublemaking brother, and defend a falsely accused student.
\nMy Missing Valentine<\/a>\u00a0(Director\u00a0Yu-Hsun Chen)\u00a0<\/strong>
\nWinner of Best Picture at the Golden Horse Film Festival, this offbeat, time-shifting Taiwanese romantic comedy follows a post office counter clerk whose life moves at an exceptionally fast pace until the unusual day when she meets her match.
\nThe Teacher<\/a>\u00a0(Director\u00a0Chen Ming-lang)\u00a0<\/strong>
\nAfter he announces to his class his approval of same-sex marriage, a rumor circulates that Kevin, a 26-year-old civics teacher, is HIV-positive. Kevin fights for acceptance from his community as he navigates falling in love for the first time.
\nGet The Hell Out<\/a>\u00a0(Director\u00a0I-Fan Wang)<\/strong>
\nPolitics may bring out the worst in us, but nothing compares to the events in this action-packed Grand Guignol comedy about a team of activists, legislators, and civilians going up against a parliament filled with hyperactive zombie mutants infected with \u201cidiot rabies.\u201d<\/p>\n
