Open The Earth 

Considering the runtime, I expected each scene to hit harder as opposed to a series of montages and vignettes. 

‘A Good Person’ makes it clear that forgiveness is hard.

Neon Gravity is an assassin who realizes that her target, as well as her current reality, are not what they seem. This short film is a futuristic story that takes place in Downtown Miami.

Chickenhare and the Hamster of Darkness explores true identity through exploration. 

Izzy and Prince Thomas learn that taking control of their own destiny requires following their hearts and making their own decisions.

Him is visually stunning—all concrete cathedrals and bone-rattling impact shots that look like a nightmare highlight reel. Marlon Wayans is magnetic as this legendary quarterback who's basically selling salvation with a smile that never quite reaches his eyes. But the story keeps running in circles: more tests, more cryptic pep talks, more ritualistic drills. The sports-as-religion metaphor beats you over the head when subtlety would've been more effective. The middle drags, and that finale chooses spectacle over substance. It's undeniably stylish, but left me cold. Also worth noting: despite the Monkeypaw connection, this isn't actually a Jordan Peele film—he didn't write or direct.
