El cuidador del bosque 

For the most part, 'Sweet Girl' recycles tired hyper masculine revenge tropes, but a surprise twist in the end turns it into a female-centric revenge film.

In less than 30 minutes, Proudfoot guides the viewer through a narrative that touches on American history, mind-health issues, race, and gender politics

A haunting look at grief, survival, and a mother’s quiet collapse in a world that never gave her room to fall.

This Japanese Anime movie is about Kanna, a young girl who sets on a quest across Japan to discover her true identity.

What seems like such a simple story of survival is so much more than that—it’s a story of family, and of war, and of destruction. It’s painful to watch, but not in a bad way. It makes its audience reflect on their own actions, and in how they are complicit in the sufferings of others as the adults in this film are. Grave of the Fireflies does not hold back from being heartbreaking, and it shouldn’t. It tells a message that needs to be heard decades after the war, and a story that cannot be forgotten by history.

This powerful story shines with poetic animation, an exploration of deeper truths, and the protagonist's complex search for identity.
