Life's Red Light (or 'Doomers')
Two teenage boys drive through the night in silence until they reach a deserted intersection with a red light.

The light’s still red, eventually Shu gets out of the car to press the crosswalk button and noticing that the usually busy road is deserted, he stops to take in the peace and quiet. T gets out the car as well and increasingly surreal events begin to occur under the gaze of the buzzing red light. The boys are able to come to communion by agreeing that there is still a possible future worth fighting for. The light turns green, but the two boys stay in the intersection and play.

It's Theater VS Cancer in "Don't Say Good Luck"
Netflix’s new comedy drama, Don’t Say Good Luck, is a heartwarming tearjerker as well as a love letter to the transformative power of being a theater kid. Directed by Julia Hart, Don’t Say Good Luck follows Sophie (Sunny Sandler), a theater kid who finally gets the lead role in her school’s production of Waitress - just as she finds out her mom Elizabeth (Melanie Lynskey) is dying of cancer.
