Powerful, somber, and with just the right amount of hope, Black Box Diaries is one of the most stunning uses of documentary filmmaking.

Kneecap is a chronicle of a particular group and a rallying cry all in one bringing Ireland and its language to the front of film.

Kidnapping Inc. is the type of off-color humor, action movie that works perfectly for a Midnight film at a festival.

In The Summers is a painfully perfect film about the anguish loving your family can cause and the way our memories change as we age.

Love Me (2024) is interesting, to say the least. A buoy and a satellite fall in love and find sentience and belonging along the way.

Steven Soderbergh employs visual experimentation for a one-of-a-kind ghost story whose stars shape into a winner.

When In A Violent Nature is firing, it does so on all cylinders and that almost makes up for its staggered pacing.

An unassuming film, A Real Pain will stay with those who carry their family’s trauma buried underneath their own weeping.
