Although extremely precious, social interactions are far too often undervalued. Assuming our parents only have 30 more good years left and we make an effort to visit them twice a year, we realize that the number of cherished visits with our loved ones is equivalent to the amount of seconds in a minute. What if you could count them on your wrist? A countdown that tracks your limited and precious social interactions, we want to tell the story of a girl living her last interactions in life. In this dystopian world, everyone wears a smartwatch that displays the number of interactions you have left in life. Malu is down to her last 4, and she must decide between a love interest at work and spending precious time with her sick mother.

"Him" - All Flash, No Game
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.
