“Fjord” is Beautifully Indecipherable
Fjord, like its story, is not a conclusion, but a beginning.
A Quiet Afternoon with Strangers (1977)
“A ‘silent’ interview, QUIET AFTERNOON is the most strange and moving of Turkle’s films, documenting the year-round garage sale of an eccentric, elderly Ohio couple. The omission of sound and the focused, grainy attention of their legacy of bric-a-brac, discarded appliances and collected curiosities adds greatly to the film’s ultimate emotional effect.” – Frank Young, Florida Flambeau.

"She Rides Shotgun" — A Gritty, Heartbreaking Father-Daughter Thriller
Nick Rowland’s She Rides Shotgun is a blistering, blood-soaked road thriller that doubles as a bruised love story between a haunted ex-con (a career-best Taron Egerton) and the daughter he barely knows (astonishing newcomer Ana Sophia Heger). Fueled by white-knuckle chases, razor-tense shootouts, and quiet moments of aching tenderness, the film captures both the terror and fragile beauty of survival.
