'How Power Looks' — MiamisFF Review
Praising Black representation and condemning the power structures that suppress it, a mother delivers an impassioned speech to her distant son.

Japan is the place that formed Masa Sakano but Scotland is the place that opened his eyes. Rooted in exploring the concept of home, the film takes us from the icy crags of the Scottish mountains to the quiet comfort of Masa's home in the shadow of the Cairngorms and back to his roots in rural Japan. Masa is a climber and translator based in the Scottish Highlands. Originally from Japan, Masa was drawn to Scotland by the winter climbing and the climbing culture. Having climbed around the world, Masa has been part of historic first ascents as well as being passionate about the experience of being out in the landscape.

New horror film "Pretty" is good to look at thanks to 19-year-old director Metecan Duren.
Steven Soderbergh’s Contagion is a fan-favorite, as are some of the more science fiction angled movies like 28 Days Later or World War Z. I recently watched the 1995 Wolfgang Peterson-directed movie, Outbreak for the first time, which is currently available on Netflix.

The plot could’ve really been interesting if the elements of lycanthropy was integrated with perhaps the struggle of identity of being LGBTQ+.

Instead, the horror and transformation elements seem thrown in without contemplation of how this could deepen the narrative.
