Brave the Dark
- Excerpt: There are setbacks and struggles, but that makes the conclusion and the images of the real Stan and Nate at the end especially moving.
Bye Bye Love
- Excerpt: Bye Bye Love stands on its own as one of the most vibrant and energetic films of the Japanese New Wave, a queer road trip saga with a portrayal of gender fluidity that stands out for its sensitivity then and now.
The Colors Within
Jared Mobarak @ JaredMobarak.com
- Excerpt: Totsu, Kimi, and Rui are able to reconcile the two halves of themselves together and see a way forward via compromise for both. Maybe bending the rules will actually get them closer to God than if they blindly followed each to the letter.
Flight Risk
- Excerpt: “Flight Risk” has all of the ingredients for a tight little thriller except one.
Hisaab Barabar
Kathy Gibson @ Access Bollywood
The Performance
- Excerpt: The Pivens, who literally grew up together and made this as a passion project, have a shared vision, and a level of comfort and communication that brings sincerity and authenticity to the performances at every level.
Three Birthdays
Sebastian Zavala @ Loud and Clear Reviews [Spanish]
- Excerpt: The fact of the matter is, and without being necessarily perfect or groundbreaking, Three Birthdays ends up feeling like a mature and well-thought-out drama that has something to say.
