There’s a vast amount of information about a group of beings that existed before humans. The question is why are they hidden from humans?

Betrayal; Release date: December 5
Presented with the task of choosing between his country and honour, a German-Dutch Ludwig Mengelberg (played by Peter Nillesen), an officer in the German army who is nicknamed “Der Fliegende Holländer” made a tough call.

Mengelberg got transferred to the Netherlands where he decides to help a Dutch farm family covering up people in hiding. However, his choice backfired as he commits high treason against his own men. When suspicion arises and the resistance advances, Mengelberg risks his life and those of the people he desires to help. Betrayal stars Peter Nillesen, Dirk Gunther Mohr, Kai Kolderand, Ingrid Bisschop, Berit van de Wouw and Andreas Lessig. Directed by Dennis Bots and Thomas Nauw, with production by Epic Pictures. So what would the betrayal end in for Der Fliegende Holländer?
The Abyss; Release date: December 6
A crew of an underwater oil rig in the middle of the ocean are enlisted by the U.S. government to assist in the rescue of an American nuclear submarine during the height of the Cold War. In the course of their mission, they discover a strange and mysterious force living in the deep and the discovery turned their rescue mission to an adventure into the wondrous and the unknown. A rework of the 1989 sci-fi epic, the Abyss is directed by James Cameron and stars Ed Harris, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, James Cameron, Michael Biehn, Todd Graff, Kimberly Scott, J.C. Quinn, John Bedford Lloyd and Leo Burmester. Would they rescue the submarine or what would be the end of their discovery?
Into The Weeds; Release date: December 8
Another epic documentary movie takes a trip into the search for justice by a groundkeeper, Lee Johnson against the manufacturer of Roundup, a weed killer. Monsanto is the agrichemical giant that manufactures the weed killer. Roundup has glyphosate as the active ingredient, a chemical that was found in 2015 by the WHO as a probable human carcinogen. A landmark San Fransisco Superior Court ruling in 2018 awarded $289 million in damages to Johnson. Monsanto is now part of Bayer which was ordered in 2018 to pay $10.9 billion to settle lawsuits. But the story of Monsanto and Roundup goes beyond that, however, the entire episode with Johnson set up a precedent. The trailer to this epic may as well just tell you more.
