On Becoming a Guinea Fowl (2024) 100% “On Becoming a Guinea Fowl is a complex film whose layers are so dense that they’d be impenetrable if not for Nyoni’s knack for dark humor, fantastic imagery, and her seething rage at a patriarchy that has co-opted women to be its foot soldiers. ” – Reverse Shot Mar 11, 2025 Full Review Bhoga Khirikee (2018) “There's seething, justified anger that underscores the plot of Bhoga Khirikee; an anger that could be used to create extremely radical female characters who pull plot forward instead of becoming cardboard stand-ins for the filmmaker’s radical politics.” – Vague Visages Sep 26, 2023 Full Review The Last Color (2020) 33% “Gupta, with her immense treasure of emotions and movements, brings to life the dichotomies of extreme pain and extreme joy, and makes it all seem so relatable that it’s difficult to hold back tears.” – Vague Visages Aug 7, 2023 Full Review Flamin' Hot (2023) 67% “Though Montañez's claims have since been contested, the controversy does not diminish the joy of Longoria's film. It's a story of an immigrant's triumph in a society where the odds are always systemically stacked against him.” – Bust Magazine Jul 14, 2023 Full Review Love Life (2022) 87% “The characters all seem to live in the glow of this ephemeral light, and they continue chasing it when it gets too dark. ” – Reverse Shot Mar 23, 2023 Full Review Beba (2021) 83% “This documentary could have been a collective cleansing experience, but instead it is, as she asserts from the outset, only Huntt’s story.” – Hyperallergic Jun 28, 2022 Full Review Day After... (2021) “While the absence of a clear demarcation between what is real and what isn’t raises some documentary ethics questions of authenticity and portraying “reality,” the larger narrative remains true to its goal of telling the story of a 150-mile journey.” – Reverse Shot Mar 24, 2022 Full Review Isabella (2020) 85% “The latest in a string of offbeat films about the nature of performance and creativity.” – Hyperallergic Oct 18, 2021 Full Review Night of the Kings (2020) 96% “Night of the Kings is a film made of fleeting moments of beauty packed within a world defined by violence and surrounded by death.” – Firstpost Apr 30, 2021 Full Review Her Socialist Smile (2020) 92% “Reconstructs Keller from an icon of vague, feel-good platitudes to the fiercely political woman she truly was.” – Hyperallergic Nov 17, 2020 Full Review Belly of the Beast (2020) 100% “Demonstrates how exclusionary our social myths around motherhood and giving birth are.” – Hyperallergic Nov 16, 2020 Full Review MLK/FBI (2020) 98% “MLK/FBI doesn't leave the audience with answers but compels them to ask harder questions.” – Reverse Shot Oct 2, 2020 Full Review The Wise Kids (2011) 100% “Cone is a master of restraint as his storytelling always manages to portray extremely emotional moments without falling onto the crutches of overt melodrama...” – Screen Slate Sep 18, 2020 Full Review Epicentro (2020) 89% “As waves crash against the Malecón esplanade, Epicentro reminds us of the myths that we build our lives upon; some of us believe in the myth of building walls and some of us cry at the death of our mythical leaders.” – Screen Slate Sep 18, 2020 Full Review Be Water (2020) 93% “Be Water brings together a wide range of people to build a memorial to a man whose legacy is not limited to his tragically short screen career.” – Hyperallergic Jun 11, 2020 Full Review Promising Young Woman (2020) 90% “Ultimately, Fennell's debut is a noble effort weakened by a short-sighted adherence to old ideas of crime and punishment.” – Bitch Media Apr 23, 2020 Full Review Crip Camp (2020) 100% “It visibilizes the history of one of the most invisibilized communities in this country.” – Bitch Media Apr 23, 2020 Full Review A Thousand Cuts (2020) 100% “A Thousand Cuts tells familiar stories of how governments overrun or deceive their to serve racist, misogynist, and imperialist ideals. But the story never ends there.” – Hyperallergic Mar 6, 2020 Full Review The Fight (2020) 99% “The Fight does the work of uncovering the human faces and the immense emotional and intellectual labor that make up the organization.” – Hyperallergic Mar 6, 2020 Full Review Shirley (2020) 88% “Josephine Decker echoes Cixous's call for écriture féminine, a kind of feminist authorship that instates the power women have historically been denied, wherein they use their bodies to write themselves into the social fabric.” – Hyperallergic Mar 6, 2020 Full Review Miss Juneteenth (2020) 99% “Miss Juneteenth is a rare film that unpacks a lot about being a Black woman in America today. It manages to both find pride in the legacy it examines while also pointing out where reinvention is needed.” – Hyperallergic Mar 6, 2020 Full Review I Was at Home, But (2019) 88% “I Was at Home, But tests its audience and never tells them if they're right, and therein lies the challenge. The point is not to "get" the film but to have thought about it and come up with a whole array of personal truths.” – Vague Visages Mar 6, 2020 Full Review Downtown 81 (2000) 79% “It's perhaps not a magical portal but an always-open, inviting one that promises a journey to a lost city of artists and roadside fairies where Basquiat sits on a chair, drawing on Man Ray portraits with a Sharpie.” – Hyperallergic Mar 2, 2020 Full Review “The film brings us stories of resistance and revolution from Black America, thereby filling up the huge gaping holes that exist in Hollywood narratives of Victor Green's radical travel guide.” – Hyperallergic Feb 24, 2020 Full Review The Last Resort (2018) 92% “The Last Resort resurrects Miami as an artistic muse, bringing together authors, artists, and filmmakers who grew up in Miami of the 1970s, and listens to them as they recount their childhoods and the art it has inspired.” – Hyperallergic Feb 21, 2020 Full Review
