With his 2021 film Dinner in America, director Adam Carter Rehmeier revived the career of actor Kyle Gallner, who has since caught the eye of cinemagoers with his roles in the Smile series and Strange Darling. Rehmeier and Gallner reunite for Carolina Caroline, and once again the latter plays a charming sociopath who sweeps a restless young woman off her feet. The tone is less comic this time, and Carolina Caroline is a lot more maudlin than the post-Tarantino vibes of its trailer might suggest.
Horror movies centred on demonic possession and exorcisms generally feature a possessed young woman and a male religious figure battling a crisis of faith as they attempt to save the possessed victim. The Voices of Our Mother, actor Mark O'Brien's second feature as writer/director, strays from convention in this regard. Here the possession victim is an elderly woman, while her potential saviour is a young nun.

Based on the life and artwork of three Mexican-American artists, Frank Ayala, Ruben Aguilera Sanchez, and Abel Corchado, Los Tres tells the stories of these three artists who find refuge in friendship and art as they compose their artistic vision in the face of denigration and a space and time that deliberately fails to see them. Director Yehuda Sharim, known for films such as Flora (2024) and Letters2Maybe (2021), is back with a very warm and heartfelt documentary, filled with the beautiful artwork of these three artists, along with creative ‘on the fly’ shots that break the mold of the traditional documentary style.
