Hugh Laurie is the voice behind the skittish furry animal, while Emilia Clarke portrays the voice of Malicia. The animated feel-good Sundance film was directed by Toby Genkel and stars a witty cat named Maurice.

Reid had received critical acclaim for the “The Handmaid’s Tale” episode she directed titled “Holly.”

“Run Rabbit Run”Įmmy-nominated film director Daina Reid brings up the way trauma can present itself in strange ways with her psychological thriller “Run Rabbit Run.” Starring “Succession” actress Sarah Snook, who plays the mother of a seven-year-old girl whose behavior has taken a turn to the dark side - with events that seem rather familiar to the mother’s past. Texting sets off their love language, romantic feelings evolve, and “vivid daydreams” are later fueled by questionable scenarios between the two in Fogel’s adaptation of Kristen Roupenian’s short story “Cat Person,” published by The New Yorker.

“Cat Person”ĭirector Susanna Fogel depicts dating in the modern day with what starts off as an innocent flirtation between Margot, played by Emilia Jones, and Robert, portrayed by Nicholas Braun. The film meshes feelings of pain, strength, mourning and, as Sánchez describes it, “the claiming of freedom” into its cinematic release. The land serves as Noelia’s guide to healing although its grounds have been inundated with natural disasters and industrial contaminations. “La Pecera”Ĭrowds were enamored by Puerto Rican filmmaker, screenwriter, producer and interdisciplinary artist Glorimar Marrero Sánchez’s first feature film directorial debut, “La Pecera.” Led by Isel Rodríguez, her character Noelia finds refuge in Puerto Rico after she becomes aware her cancer has returned. Jonathan Majors takes on the role of Killian Maddox in Elijah Bynum’s “Magazine Dreams.” Maddox is presented with the conflicts that arise between pursuing a career as a bodybuilder (despite the physical and emotional aftermath that may come with it), working on self-improving his temper and learning to assimilate to emotional human connection. Reflections on their clientele, the culture of their work and the authentic experiences they’ve endured as Black transgender women in the sex field are explored throughout the film - both from their perspective as well with insight from the men who acknowledge the struggles of fitting into society’s definition of masculinity twined in between.

Smith, “Kokomo City” brings the nostalgia of black-and-white film to a real-life documentary following the uncensored lives of four transgender sex workers based in New York and Georgia.
