ROSE PLAYS JULIE (HIFF28)

Directed by Christine Molloy, Joe Lawlor
(2019, Ireland/United Kingdom, 100 minutes)

“It’s visceral and elegiac, a perfect slow-burner awash in the blood of old wounds reopened.” — Film Inquiry


A GLITCH IN THE MATRIX

Directed by Rodney Ascher
(2021, USA, 109 minutes)
Available through March 5, 2021

“Are we living in ‘reality,’ or do we all spend our days in an elaborate computer simulation? From director Rodney Ascher, who presented us with the many ways to interpret Stanley Kubrick’s THE SHINING in 2013’s ROOM 237, comes his latest film, which also scrambles our minds with the abundant theories about how to interpret the world around us.” — David Nugent, Artistic Director


TWO OF US

Directed by Filippo Meneghetti
Starring Barbara Sukowa & Martine Chevallier
(2020, France, 95 minutes)
Available through March 5, 2021

“An electrifying love story that eschews the sentimental tropes often associated with the genre. Full of complexity and empathy, and anchored by Barbara Sukowa and Martine Chevallier’s powerful performances, Filippo Meneghetti’s striking feature film debut indicates the emergence of a remarkable new talent.” — Megan Costello, Programmer


MY LITTLE SISTER

Directed by Stéphanie Chuat, Véronique Reymond
(2020, Switzerland, 100 minutes)
Available January 29-February 5, 2021

“Featuring another incredible performance by one of Germany’s greatest actors, Nina Hoss, MY LITTLE SISTER tells the story of a brother and sister whose bond is tested by a cancer diagnosis. Observant but not exploitative of its subject matter, this wonderfully crafted film solidifies its filmmakers as major talents in international cinema.” — David Nugent, Artistic Director


MAYOR

Directed by David Osit
(2020, USA/UK, 89 minutes)

“A tonally impressive and deeply affecting take on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Deftly balancing absurdist wit with edge-of-your-seat suspense, David Osit has crafted one of the finest documentaries of the year.” — Megan Costello, HamptonsFilm Programmer


HARRY CHAPIN:
WHEN IN DOUBT, DO SOMETHING

Directed by Rick Korn
(2020, USA
, 93 minutes)
Available January 15-22, 2021

“An uplifting tribute to an impressive human being.” — The Los Angeles Times



THE REASON I JUMP

Directed by Jerry Rothwell
(2020, UK/USA
, 82 minutes)

“Instead of a literal adaptation, Rothwell’s film is a supplement, an echo, a response that enriches the experience of the original work.” — The Hollywood Reporter


ASSASSINS

Directed by Ryan White
(2020, USA
, 104 minutes)

“It’s a Kafka-esque and sometimes darkly comic tale of deception and exploitation that makes for a smartly assembled and eminently topical film that arrives at a crucial juncture in world affairs…” — The Hollywood Reporter


COLLECTIVE

Directed by Alexander Nanau
(2019, Romania/Luxembourg
, 109 minutes)

“Every now and then a documentary doesn’t just open your eyes but tears you apart. An explosive observational documentary about unfathomable corruption. This is truly a documentary for our times.” — Variety


AMMONITE

Directed by Frances Lee
(2020, UK/Australia/USA
, 120 minutes)

“[AMMONITE] is many things, all of them remarkable: a queer romance that finds passion in austerity; a biopic that strips away most details of Anning’s career while honoring its spirit; and a portrait of genius thwarted by gender.” — Wall Street Journal


THE NEST

Directed by Sean Durkin
(2020, UK/Canada, 107 minutes)

“Excellently engineered domestic drama, with characters walking on just the right number of eggshells around each other until they crack wide open.” — Globe and Mail


CODED BIAS

Directed by Shalini Kantayya
(2020, USA, 90 minutes)

“A chilling plunge into Orwellian reality.” — The Hollywood Reporter

Winner: HIF28 New York Women in Film & Television (NYWIFT) Award for Excellence in Documentary Filmmaking


DICK JOHNSON IS DEAD

Directed by Kirsten Johnson
(2020, USA, 89 minutes)

“For all its playfulness, it’s the real, stinging, joyful, inconvenient reality of life that DICK JOHNSON gives us. It’s a committed act of preservation: a looping, reeling, repeatable act of love.” — Rolling Stone


TOTALLY UNDER CONTROL

Directed by Alex Gibney, Ophelia Harutyunyan, Suzanne Hillinger
(2020, USA, 123 minutes)

“Conveys the dizzying sensation of chronicling history while it’s still unfolding.” — Observer


US KIDS

Directed by Kim A. Snyder
(2020, USA, 123 minutes)

Peabody Award-winning director Kim A. Snyder (NEWTOWN) follows teenage activists as they fight for gun control and compel the political system into action. Insightful and rousing, US KIDS chronicles a new generation of youth leaders and their remarkable dedication to enact change.

“Offers a potent testimony to the impact of citizen protest.” — Variety
