The Yonkers Film Festival 2022 In Review
A summary of the films featured in this annual event taking place in Westchester.

The story is set in an ambiance of a dark utopian future, a city of mentally dead zombies under the firm grip of military dictatorship. Boldly, like a man on a mission, the Tailor will walk the Kafkaesque and macabre streets of a city where terror and gloom roam freely, in his Diogenes’ search for purity and love.
A summary of the films featured in this annual event taking place in Westchester.
“To be universal, you have to get specific”: while the film does not attempt to provoke discussions about queerness or race, those watching closely may find something resonant in Sorrentino’s love letter to the Naples of his youth.
A young girl named Copi and her pet dog Xico travel into the mountain when they hear that something's not right.
Malignant is a roller coaster ride of slow-build scares, moments of wonderfully absurd camp, and explorations of autonomy.
Unknown Origins promises a cool spin on superheroes and serial killers, but ultimately delivers cheap comedy.
Netflix’s Shadow and Bone has a complicated relationship with race. It has a diverse cast, but not without its problems. Based on Leigh Bardugo’s two book series, the show features characters from the Shadow and Bone trilogy, which is very straight and white, and the Six of Crows duology, which is much more diverse. When bringing together a cast and writing about these characters, the team behind the show expanded upon some of the representation missing from the first trilogy, then seemed to take away representation from the duology. Shadow and Bone seems to play a bit of a push and pull game when it comes to portraying diversity onscreen.
