Reviews
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
