Children on Their Birthdays (2002)

I'm bad, and that's good. I will never be good, and that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be than me.

The Noel Diary is about a man who unlocks an old diary containing secrets of the past.

The Invitation takes a creeping look at two simple premises: reuniting with forgotten friends and new-age spiritualism. Though one seems a bit scarier than the other, the film heightens social awkwardness to a macabre level that puts an uncomfortable look on when the social taboo of grief is put on public display.

The film is a powerful narrative encompassing a theme that many people can identify with.
