If you want to escape from everyday hustle and bustle, switch off your brain and dive into a gripping story — here are three films that are perfect for a light but fulfilling weekend.

There's everything here: intense action, mystery, and the return of an old friend you can laugh and cry with at the same time.

"Flight Risk"

Starring: Michelle Dockery, Mark Wahlberg, Topher Grace

A flight over Alaska turns into a deadly game where every move could be your last.

An air marshal escorts an accountant witness on a private plane, not suspecting the pilot has his own agenda. When an armed conflict unfolds at altitude, our heroine finds herself caught between life, duty, and secrets that were supposed to stay in the sky.

"El llanto"

Starring: Ester Expósito, Mathilde Ollivier, Malena Villa

It all started with video messages to her boyfriend and ended with meeting ancient evil.

Spanish student Andrea misses her boyfriend and sends him videos, until one day a sinister figure appears in the recording that she doesn't notice herself. The frightening silhouette, secrets from the past, and a spirit dwelling on the other side of the screen force our heroine to start her own investigation full of disturbing discoveries.
