One the most controversial documentaries of all time—and the most honest portrayal of America’s underbelly any audience will ever see. Written by Leonard Schrader (brother of TAXI DRIVER scribe Paul). THE KILLING OF AMERICA is a stylish lost piece of the "mondo" film puzzle, directly and coolly addressing the psyche-shattering nature of everyday gun crime through ultra-rare news file footage of the era. Assassinations, serial killers, race riots, and even more shocking realities are on display. Although the film was originally made for the same Japanese market as FACES OF DEATH, this 100% authentic newsreel assemblage eschews sensationalism and critique to form a wholly original, unforgettable big-screen experience.

MADDIE’S SECRET is comedian, writer, and actor John Early’s critically acclaimed directorial debut starring himself as Maddie, a plucky dishwasher who leaps to viral superstardom at a trendy food content creation company. While her life seems picturesque — complete with an adoring husband (Eric Rahill), ride-or-die best friend (Kate Berlant) and a cupboard full of woman-owned ethically-sourced chili crisp to boot — mounting professional pressures threaten to reawaken a hidden secret from her troubled past. A pitch-perfect blend of satire, melodrama, daring tonal shifts and intimate performances, the film marks a bold new voice in contemporary cinema.
