Netflix release date: 2 SeptemberThe best thing since Breaking Bad, and 2015 Netflix Original series that had everyone buzzing returns. Narcos is back with more of drug lord Pablo Escobar’s exploits in Colombia. Series two picks up after Escobar’s escape from La Catedral prison (hardly surprising given that Escobar dictated the terms of his own imprisonment). Given that he died only a year later, expect high, high drama.Netflix release date: 23 SeptemberAnything but easy viewing, this Sundance Festival documentary highlights, among other things, the prevalence of rape culture and its tragic consequences.

Tangerine was filmed using just three iPhone cameras.
