    The Falling World
    The Falling World contains moments of intrigue but a limp script and a cast of unengaging characters make this effort fall flat.

    Shadowplay
    Bebjak’s film is far from bad and its three-tiered narrative is often compelling, buoyed by fine performances. But its treatment of women and shallow exploration of its themes sadly bring down its initial promise.

    Esme, My Love
    The components are all here for a compelling psychological drama, led by two excellent performances, but a conflation between narrative obfuscation with thematic depth undermines Esme, My Love’s final emotional impact.

    8 A.M. Metro is a sweet but ultimately shallow film whose final act ultimately finds depth and dimension too late to redeem its prior narrative shortcomings.

    A Song for Imogene
    American writer-director Erika Arlee’s debut feature showcases strong performances and nice visual flourishes, but A Song for Imogene struggles to find an emotional hook.

    Lie with Me
    In examining the reflexive, redemptive power of fiction, Lie with Me is a moving story of love lost to time.
