Review Griffin in Summer Review: A Funny and Sensitive Coming-of-Age Story About First Desire

Griffin in Summer is a warm, funny coming-of-age film about artistic ambition, adolescent awkwardness, and the first flicker of same-sex desire. Modest in scale but sharp in observation, it captures a fragile turning point in queer self-awareness with real charm.

While the series has primarily focused on Nick and Charlie navigating the timing of saying I...

Finlandia (Spanish)

In Oaxaca, southern Mexico, the Zapotec people recognize muxes as a third gender, living out their identities in a non-binary way. Because Mexican culture is largely machista, muxes frequently take on caregiver roles, earning significant respect for both their contributions and their very existence.
