“When It Melts”
A cruel portrait of toxic adolescence and trauma that’s thoroughly unsettling, but powerful.
“Iron Butterflies”
A bold, gutsy documentary that presents damning evidence of Russia’s probable war crimes and involvement in the downing of Flight MH17 in 2014.

An artless documentary that feels overwritten and orchestrated to a fault. The topic is important and infuriating, but it’s not a particularly well-made film.
“Polite Society”
A unique and energetic action comedy that’s an original, goofy, and quirky story of female empowerment and sisterhood.
“Theater Camp”
A funny mumblecore style film with a sweet message that has the potential to become a bonafide cult classic among theater kids.
