Sing Sing 2023
A simple but sensitive story about positive masculinity, brotherhood and the power of art to transform.

The simplicity of the film really works in its favor. Overall, a really tender, feelgood film that I would recommend watching if you're looking for something mellow.

The Boy and the Heron 2023

Yes there's a lot that won't make sense, the film often moves to something even stranger before you get a grasp on whatever it was doing a minute ago. It's probably the darkest and most surreal of his works but there's a clear point to it. It's Miyazaki reflecting on his work, the worlds he has…
