Censor (2021)
89%
“Through its protagonist, Censor questions whether art needs to contain moralising directives, without ever reducing Enid to an archetype or symbol.” –

Night Raiders (2021)
83%
“Night Raiders insists that any way forward in a world barrelling toward cataclysmic political and ecological destruction must involve the knowledge, self-determination, and, crucially, the leadership of Indigenous peoples.” –

And Then We Danced (2019)
93%
“Merab's performance is a testament to the things that queer dance and movement can do: a camp revision of national traditions, a defiance of authority, an exorcism of pain, and a leap into a future that is both uncertain and exhilarating.” –

Invisible Life (2019)
94%
“The director proves himself less interested in narrative mechanics and causal logic than in the use of affect as an integral mode of perception, and its translation into expressionistic, emotionally charged, sometimes shocking images...” –

Little Women (2019)
95%
“What's enjoyable about this version of Little Women is its fusion of solitude and warmth -- the pleasures found in the company of others, and the vitality of keeping one's own.” –

Lina From Lima (2019)
87%

In Fabric (2018)
92%
“The film teeters towards experimental: a tough ask for an audience sitting through a two hour feature. Our focus is anchored, however, by strong performances which ground In Fabric's intoxicating weirdness.” –

Booksmart (2019)
96%
“Booksmart delights in the idea that the learning never stops. This may be an overly optimistic note to end on, but for a genre that's always indulged and projected nostalgic fantasy onto young people, it might be the best possible outcome.” –

The Favourite (2018)
93%
“Despite the empathy that actors have for their characters, the hyper ironic and self-aware stylisation gives Lanthimos a smug authoritative 'smartness' over everything depicted on-screen.” –

Vision (2018)
38%
“Kawase's conviction in executing this narrative, combined with Binoche's communicative facial expressivity maintain a hold on their audience, convincing them to remain in cinematic disorientation for a little bit longer.” –

Out of Blue (2018)
37%
“A much needed camp parody of Hitchcockian proportions, told from a female perspective. Morley and her cast know exactly when to ham it up and when to build genuine emotive tension.” –

Where Hands Touch (2018)

“While Amma Asante has assigned herself a weighty responsibility in taking on Where Hands Touch, she certainly understands the weight.” –
