Film-Forward

Foreign

Silent Friend

Ildikó Enyedi places a ginkgo tree at the center of her new film, as a silent witness to the passing of time.

The Last One for the Road

A woozy road movie, a wistful sketch of an Italy fallen from grace, and a wry comedy.

I Swear

The occasionally stirring biopic of Tourette syndrome activist John Davidson.

Amrum

Actor Jasper Billerbeck plays one of the most memorably multidimensional young wartime protagonists since The Tin Drum and Empire of the Sun.

Exit 8

A compelling psychological horror story that doesn’t require preexisting gaming knowledge.

The Christophers

There’s a verbose richness to Ed Solomon’s text and Steven Soderbergh’s cool visual flair that works wonderfully together here.

Living the Land

Living the Land makes its points about the loss of a certain way of life in the face of inevitable modernism gently and memorably.

The Stranger

François Ozon’s adaptation of Albert Camus’s novel is filled with details that enrich and contextualize the status of colonial France in Algeria through a critical lens.

Kontinental ’25

Kontinental ’25 shows a gentler side of Radu Jude’s cynical worldview and tackles issues of existential morality in an almost level-headed manner.
