Reviews

Dorathen Better Late Then Never
SeeQuant Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
