Franka is a punk—wild and loud—but her star is fading. Her younger sister Maya has retreated to their parents in the countryside and now lives somewhere between rubber boots, coffee on the sofa, and no desire for change. When Franka thinks she has seen their missing sister, Lilly, on the street one day, she feels compelled to at least try to “save” Maya. What follows is a chaotic road trip from Brandenburg to Berlin, a night full of arguments and laughter, old accusations, and new honesty. In the end, there is no solution, but maybe a new beginning. A raw snapshot of two women who are closer than they think.

Honey Don't! is a chaotic queer noir that's part detective story, part midnight movie madness. Margaret Qualley is fantastic as the wise-cracking private eye Honey, with Aubrey Plaza and Chris Evans adding their own dry humor to the mix. The mystery itself is pretty loose, but the film makes up for it with crackling sexual tension, weird side characters, and razor-sharp dialogue. It's messy and uneven, but in the best possible way.
'City of God' depicts the cylindrical cycle of violence that is forced upon the underprivileged.
