A one-shot film that follows brothers on and off screen, Ari and Ethan, on the hunt for their dying poet father through the streets of San Francisco. Shot in one day, the script uses deep improvisation, relying heavily on the natural bond and sibling bickering of the siblings, blurring fiction and reality. (dir. Ari Gold, U.S., 2025, 91 min.)

This is the story of the Butthole Surfers, a band that defied every rule and redefined what rock could be. Emerging from Texas in the early 1980s, Gibby Haynes and Paul Leary forged an anarchic path across America’s underground, creating chaotic live shows filled with nudity, fake blood, and blistering psychedelic noise. Their name alone was a challenge to Reagan-era conformity, yet their influence rippled through alternative music, shaping acts like Nirvana and securing them a cult legacy. Featuring candid interviews, wild archival footage, trippy reenactments, and commentary from icons like Flea, Dave Grohl, and Richard Linklater, this long-anticipated documentary is as provocative, funny, and fearless as the band itself
PGfor cartoon violence and some language.
After decades of being blown to bits by bombs, demolished by dynamite, mangled by magnets, battered by boulders, trampled by trains, tricked by tunnels, sprung by springs, steamrolled by steamrollers, maligned by misfires, bedeviled by bungees, rattled by rockets, backstabbed by bat suits, rocked by rocket skates, upended by unicycles, quaked by quake pills, rubberized by rogue bands, and hurled headlong off every cliff in the Southwest, Wile E. Coyote (Genius) finally fights back. Teaming up with billboard accident lawyer Kevin Avery (Will Forte), he takes on slick corporate counsel Buddy Crane (John Cena) and ACME, Inc., the profit-obsessed conglomerate behind every one of the Coyote’s chaotic catastrophes.

Widely known for her tranquil poems about the natural world, and as a solitary recluse, poet Mary Oliver's life was anything but peaceful. Raised in abuse and turmoil, the stability she sought through her writings shifted her reality. And she changed others. With star-studded personal interviews with the likes of Oprah Winfrey, Stephen Colbert, John Waters, Lucy Dacus, and more, we see how the ripples of words can inspire generations. This close look at this national treasure, the award-winning and beloved writer, begs us to ask ourselves, "What is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?" (dir.

Mark Lewis, works as a focus puller in a British film studio. On his off hours, he supplies a local porno shop with cheesecake photos and also dabbles in filmmaking. A lonely, unfriendly, sexually repressed fellow, Mark is obsessed with the effects of fear and how they are registered on the face and behavior of the frightened. This obsession dates from the time when, as a child, he served as the subject of some cold-blooded experiments in terror conducted by his own scientist father. As a grown man, Mark becomes a compulsive murderer who kills women and records their contorted features and dying gasps on film. His ongoing project is a documentary on fear. With 16mm camera in hand, he accompanies a prostitute to her room and stabs her with a blade concealed in his tripod, all the while photographing her contorted face in the throes of terror and death. Alone in his room, he surrounds himself with the sights and sounds of terror: taped screams, black-and-white "home movies" of convulsed

Based on the Herman Melville novel of the same name as the protagonist, Pierre, the film surprised its audiences in a similar manner that Melville shocked his readers with the first book post Moby Dick. It follows a wealthy male author living with his mother, waiting to be married to his cousin, when a long-lost vagrant, claiming to be his half-sister, appears. (dir. Leos Carax, France/Switzerland/Germany/Japan, 1999, 134 min.) “[A film that] breaks free of the dismal bonds of formula to cartwheel into overwrought passionate excess.” —Roger Ebert

William Holden leads a band of aging robbers through the hard world of the Old West as they try to outrun the bounty hunter (the legendary Robert Ryan) who is hot on their trail. The balletic violence and weary fatalism that Peckinpah brings to his vision of the American West is underscored by some of sweatiest, dirtiest, bloodiest performances from some of the the toughest, ugliest actors of all time. Ernest Borgnine, Ben Johnson and Warren Oates shoot, screw, drink, and ride horses all while imbuing the film's harsh, empty world with a sense of real poetry. This is a film about the mantle of violence passing from old professionals, who live by a code, to even more chaotic and deadly future generations. And what is the code these old men live by? Stand by your friends and against the world, take what you can get, and don't kill civilians...unless they get in the way.

This documentary pulls apart the legendary 1972 Toronto’s highly-improvisational production of the musical Godspell that was a comedic launchpad for a generation of North American icons: Martin Short, Eugene Levy, Gilda Radner, Andrea Martin, Dave Thomas, Victor Garber, and Paul Shaffer. What began as an off-off-off-and more off Broadway show, planted the seed which would become the sensibility for generations of Saturday Night Live and everything the came from that. (dir. Nick Davis, US, 2025, 98 min.) “It’s about something bigger than Godspell — a pop movement that didn’t have a name yet, a cultural spirit that found its way into existence almost like (laughing) gas gathering in the air.” —Variety
