Went Up the Hill

Directed by Samuel Van Grinsven
NR; 100 minutes

Went Up the Hill is indeed a ghost story and possession tale, it’s also a story about the very real, very traumatic things that haunt us.” —Kate Erbland, IndieWire

East of Wall

Directed by Kate Beecroft
R; 97 minutes

“Tapping into universal tensions with a charged specificity, East of Wall is vibrant with its sense of place and, beneath its hard-knocks surface, a poetry of astonishment and yearning.” —Sheri Linden, The Hollywood Reporter

The Place Promised in Our Early Days

Many years before he wowed the anime world with the mega-hit Your Name in 2016, Makoto Shinkai explored the same themes of teenage love, longing, and separation across different realms in The Place Promised in Our Early Days (2004). Set in an alternative world where post-war Japan is divided up between the US and Russia, the story centers on three teenagers: two boys, Hiroki and Takuya, and a girl, Sayuri, living in the northern part of Japan (Honshu).
