L'Affaire Maureen Kearney
On December 17, 2012, Maureen Kearney was found at home, tied to a chair with the letter "A" carved into her abdomen and a knife handle forced into her vagina. Was this rape linked to her work as a union representative at Areva? At the time, she was locked in a battle with management to block technology transfers between France and China; she found herself caught in the eye of a political storm involving the French state, set against the backdrop of a rivalry between two French industrial giants: Areva and EDF. This documentary serves as a counter-investigation into the Maureen Kearney affair—a complex political and legal saga that has shaken the nuclear industry from 2012 to the present day.

'Jack and Diane' Review: Wasted Potential
The plot could’ve really been interesting if the elements of lycanthropy was integrated with perhaps the struggle of identity of being LGBTQ+. It's an experience for so many that as they’re starting to realizing their true selves, they feel like a monster, especially if they come from unsupportive homes or communities. Instead, the horror and transformation elements seem thrown in without contemplation of how this could deepen the narrative.
