The Fits – A slow-building, indie film about a tween girl finding her way socially and emotionally. Uses a supernatural plot device to express the potential horrors of coming-of-age.
Wendy and Lucy – A quiet movie about the everyday hardships one can experience when you are traveling with so little. A great performance by Michelle Williams that helped establish her as a leading lady.
Leave No Trace – A look at how doing the “right thing” and living “normally” may not always be correct for everyone. How our societal expectations can affect those with trauma. At the heart of this though is a story of family in all of its capabilities for heartbreak.
