Review Vivre, Mourir, Renaître (French) [To Live, To Die, To Live Again]
It is rare to find a film that manages to transport an audience so effectively, yet this 2024 Cannes premiere achieves exactly that by immersing viewers in the 1990s and the HIV/AIDS reality faced by gay and bisexual men during those years.

The Gaze (Chinese Series)
The series started with a lot of momentum, and those early episodes hooked me with the promise of something thrilling, but the quality gradually disintegrated.

Because the AIDS crisis has been depicted on screen so frequently, complete with all its inherent dramatic weight, a film must offer a fresh perspective to truly distinguish itself. While I recognize this is an older production, it fails to provide much in the way...
Padres (Spanish)
Between the direction, the acting, and the overall presentation, watching this movie felt like sitting through a Spanish soap opera.

Finlandia (Spanish)
In Oaxaca, southern Mexico, the Zapotec people recognize muxes as a third gender, living out their identities in a non-binary way.
