So come on and discover with me. Full review. They want so badly to make a difference in our shitty world and yet even their compromise cause has failed. Deol plays a podcaster navigating a zombie apocalypse alongside her brothers, her sister-in-law, her ex, and a baby. The film is heavy with feelings of Covid, this zombie uprising an easy stand-in for the virus and our forced isolation.
But the film is at its best when it leaves behind these easy connections for a deeper heaviness about living in our world amid so much death and cruelty. Co-written by, co-directed by, and starring Miss Dylan, this short comically portrays the predictable script recited by three different guys in their attempt to hook up with a trans woman. A portrait of Black lesbian domesticity, this documentary short focuses as much on the living space of its central couple as it does on the people.

Wide shots and close ups are static as the soundtrack is filled with Corinne and Tiana discussing everything from when they met, to their familial relationships, to gender identity, to their plans to have a baby.
The audio recorded privately according to the press notes is intimate while the beautiful visuals create a certain distance. Corinne and Tiana are in their own world together. The first half of this documentary about anti-Zionist Israeli comedian Noam Shuster-Eliassi is a by-the-numbers inspiring story about how a woman went from working at the UN to spreading the message of peace through performance.
Schuster-Eliassi was raised in an internationally celebrated community where Jewish Israelis and Palestinians live side-by-side, her best friend is Palestinian, and her life and perspective seem readymade for liberal praise. But halfway through the documentary, the timeline arrives at when the Israeli government once again escalated their violence against the Palestinian people.
