This diverse, explicit, raucous, sex-positive movie is going to make a lot of people very, very uncomfortable, and audiences should be there for every delicious second of it.

“The Gullspång Miracle”
While it’s a fascinating story for a documentary, this complicated, twisty, turny, and frustrating film leaves the viewer with very few answers.
“All You Hear is Noise”
This documentary about three intellectually disabled athletes training for the Special Olympics loses focus with personal stories that just aren’t engaging enough.
“The Blackening”
Packed with timely social commentary about stereotypes and “blackness,” this sophisticated horror satire is uncomfortable, whip-smart, and a whole lot of fun.
“The Other Laurens (L’autre Laurens)”
There’s something very Lynchian in this artsy, deadpan, genre-blending film that makes it a worthy homage that also feels wildly original.
“The Herricanes”
With its timely conversations about the state of women’s sports and a boost of feel-good nostalgia, this unknown story about the first women’s full tackle football league in the 70s not only deserves to be told, but is a truly outstanding documentary.
