'Overcast' - MiamisFF Review
The makings of a great midseason filler episode that would connect in many different directions. This is a police drama filler with a guest director.
Frauenherzen
Five women, five lifestyles that could not be any different: her career at an agency takes top priority for business woman Fe, even over her relationship. Charlie, a single Mom raising a three year-old daughter remains the "permanent" intern and hairdresser Mandy is a chocoholic longing to be skinny and dreaming of a man to settle down with, whereas single lady Frieda meets men daily but stomps out any emotions before they even arise due to her fear of commitment. And then there is Karo, the mother hen, who discovers that her husband is seeing another woman. Or is he? The five stories of these women all tell a tale of life in Berlin. Strange at times, desperate too, and even tragic - yet in the end, they all find a new perspective on life

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.
