It's true, everyone’s going to die. Some of us could also become excellent garden soil. This November 1st, in honor of the Day of the Dead, we’re excited to present the Chicago premiere of the moving and hopeful doc THE LIFE WE LEAVE as a Speak Truth screening on 11/1 at 7pm at the @DavisTheater with a panel Q&A following the film: davistheater.com/movies/the-…

In 1986, master documentarian Ross McElwee released SHERMAN'S MARCH, a landmark of first-person filmmaking that presaged everything from Michael Moore to reality TV. Now he's back with the 4K Restoration of SHERMAN'S MARCH and his latest release, REMAKE, where Ross reflects on a lifetime behind the camera. SHERMAN'S MARCH and REMAKE are both now available to rent/buy on digital platforms.

Closure is so good. One of those docs you can't believe isn't a feature film. So raw and vulnerable and heartbreaking but also hopeful. So cinematic. Really dug this one.

"Nahmias maintains her delicate observational style throughout, painting both a melancholic portrait of childhood and several different corners of Americana through young perspectives." @TomiLaffly reviews COOKIE QUEENS: rogerebert.com/reviews/cooki…

Cookie Queens: Delightful doc has more than sweets on its mind

It’s all in there, in the direct aftertaste of this irresistibly sweet package.
