This gritty, bloody, and brash thriller / love story was one of my favorites to come out of this year’s Sundance Film Festival.
“Ghostlight”
A sad and smart comedy / drama about the healing power of the arts that will make you laugh and cry in equal measure.
“Hunting Daze”
I like being surprised by a film, and this one did so effectively and often, subverting expectations at almost every turn.
“The Uninvited”
A nuanced film that’s filled with subtle metaphors about aging, womanhood, impossible beauty standards, and the entertainment industry.
“Brandy Hellville & the Cult of Fast Fashion”
A damning exposé of the dark, toxic underbelly of the clothing industry, told through the controversial Brandy Melville fashion brand.
“We’re All Gonna Die”
A clever, inventive, low-budget film that defies expectations with its highly creative storytelling, imaginative use of limited resources, and surprisingly heartfelt narrative.
