Made me miss being a kid deeply. Also a wonderful intro to River Phoenix!!

No Other Land 2024
An essential watch. Hoping that the Oscar buzz carries this to a much wider audience. (I think that’s why it came to my local theater!) I love the way that Basel’s story was juxtaposed with his father’s. It really helped to illustrate just how long Palestinians have been trying to simply live their lives just like anyone else. Left me absolutely shattered and enraged.

Problemista 2023
So singular and so hilarious. I really admire Torres’ ability to take the horrifying process of immigration in the U.S. and render it with such imagination and humor, but without letting the audience lose sight of that horror. May all the people in this country who are treated unfairly be granted the ability to claim the powers of a Karen and use them for good, not evil.

Letter to a Pig 2022
I can appreciate the uniqueness of the animation style, but it was just not for me. The message was pretty thudding and basic. BUT the tiny pig was absolutely adorable and I loved him.
