[In The Pearl Button] tools associated with fiction are used to tell the truth, and an elegant tone is deployed to disguise a righteous fury.
Here Come the Videofreex delivers an illuminating and moving portrait of these largely unknown, intrepid renegade journalists…
[Drone is a] cool-headed, finely constructed documentary on the newest, most controversial method of warfare.
Mavis! is a cinematic portrait quite capable of converting the uninitiated into acolytes, and elevating casual interest to flood-tide levels of respect and affection.
Rules of the Game makes clear how its subjects are all players on a bigger stage, and it’s the system which is wrong in the first place.
The Wanted 18 is beautiful and important and very strange….Making a space to remain inconveniently and honestly human.

T-Rex…ticks several boxes but it also transcends them, never condescending in its approach to its subject or her surroundings.
