The August Bank Holiday weekend is finally here.
And after a week where the weather's been... a bit all over the place, to put it mildly, over the last few days, the idea of staying in and catching up with the latest films and TV shows on Netflix is super tempting.
Here are four new additions to Netflix to check out this weekend.

For empty nesters, what's the difference between letting your children grow up and letting them grow distant?
This year, on Mother’s Day, feeling marginalized and forgotten, long time friends Carol (Angela Bassett), Gillian (Patricia Arquette) and Helen (Felicity Huffman) decide to drive to New York to reconnect with their adult sons, and in the process, they realize their sons are not the only ones whose lives need to change.
A journey to relate becomes a journey of rediscovery that forces these women to redefine their relationships with their children, friends, spouses and most importantly, themselves.

When he arrives, Caleb learns that he has been chosen to be the human component in a Turing test to determine the capabilities and consciousness of Ava (Alicia Vikander), a beautiful robot.

Inspired by remarkable true life rescue missions, this is the incredible story of a group of international agents and brave Ethiopians who in the early 80s used a deserted holiday retreat in Sudan as a front to smuggle thousands of refugees to Israel.
