Looking for something a little different from the usual Hollywood summer movies?
There are a couple of options this weekend and beyond:
The winners were "Wasp," a live-action tale about a single mother and her four children; and "Ryan," an animated documentary about Ryan Larkin, who around 1970 made animated films considered among the best in Canadian history. Others include "7:35 in the Morning," "Little Terrorist," "Two Cars, One Night," "Birthday Boy" and "Gopher Broke."
Film critic Roger Ebert gives the collection four stars.
It's screening at 1, 4 and 7:30 p.m. today and tomorrow; at 7:30 p.m. Monday and at 1 and 7:30 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday at the Doris Duke Theatre, Honolulu Academy of Arts.

In "Schizo," Olzhas Nussuppaev plays a 15-year-old boy who recruits young boxers for illegal fights in Kazakhstan. When one recruit dies, Olzhas' life changes.
