“Sugarcane”
The documentary’s critical yet empathetic tone gives justice to these painful, shocking stories about a horrifying legacy of Indigenous abuse.
“Kneecap”
There’s a fun, rowdy, and defiant energy to this biopic about the hell-raising Irish rap trio of the same name.
“Girls Will Be Girls”
A different kind of, and highly welcome, cinematic coming-of-age story that doesn’t duck topics like female sexuality and agency.
“Reinas”
Succeeds as a small-scale family drama by not tackling too much thematically.
“Tendaberry”
A thematically diluted character study about an uninteresting person, which is a recipe for disaster.
