Pain and Glory: Great for Spain and Story…

Poor Alex
Left to his own devices, 16-year-old Alex finds himself on the freezing winter streets of Moscow, drowning in debt and facing legal trouble after his parents finally wash their hands of him and refuse to bail him out. Desperate for money and support, he wanders the night city, only to be met with the cold indifference of everyone he knows. His aimless wanderings lead him first to a shady apartment on the outskirts of town, and ultimately to a police station. Left with no protection, no family, and no roof over his head, Alex is forced to realize that his comfortable, secure life is over. Ahead lies nothing but absolute uncertainty and the biting cold of an uncaring city.

Honey Don’t!: A Messy Queer but Mischievous Comedy
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.
