The film's storylines read as allegories for the queer experience and that's a source of solace for LGBTQIA+ fans!

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.

For those that are unaware, the trailer for the new Civil Rights movie Till has been out and it's absolutely amazing for all to see.

'The Lost Daughter' doesn't paint over the choices Leda and Nina make as mothers as right or wrong but examines the messy in-between.

One of the great achievements of this film is its ability to challenge the mind and to force you to try to process information in a different way than you’re used to.
