Haunting short Chambers Street screens at the 2025 New Jersey International Film Festival on Saturday, May 31!

by Yuri Kim
published 2025-05-30

Some films don’t need a lot of time to leave a mark. Chambers Street, an eight-minute short by director Scott D. Keenan, hit me in a way I didn’t quite expect. It’s experimental, yes, but never in a way that is inaccessible. Instead, it’s haunting, beautiful, and quietly devastating. A reflection of how love, when it ends, doesn’t really leave. It lingers like a shadow.

Powerful documentary Freeing Juanita screens at the 2025 New Jersey International Film Festival on Sunday, June 1!

by Yuri Kim
published 2025-05-28

Freeing Juanita, directed by Sebastián Lasaosa Rogers, is not the kind of documentary you watch and walk away from unchanged. It stays with you long after the credits roll. At its heart, this is a film about one woman, wrongfully imprisoned. But as you watch it unfold, you realize it’s also about so much more: a broken immigration system, the erasure of Indigenous voices, and the extraordinary strength of family and community.





Excellent feature Broken Pieces screens at the 2025 New Jersey International Film Festival

by Mo Foster
published 2025-05-27

Broken Pieces is a great film which looks at the many intertwining lives in a place like New York City. Following multiple storylines which all eventually brush past or converge with each other, the film has the viewer constantly bouncing back and forth between different points in the city, mimicking the fast paced and mildly chaotic feeling of New York.



Must see Elisa in Wonderland opens the 2025 New Jersey International Film Festival on Friday, May 30!

by Evelyn Reese
published 2025-05-26

Striking, compelling, and wickedly, yet beautifully tormented– words cannot describe the deep layers of intrinsic whimsy found in Elisa in Wonderland, another masterful film by Cléa van der Grijn. From set design to exceptional performances by the brilliant actors, not a single shot is lacking importance nor intrigue.

by Al Nigrin
published 2025-05-25

I had planned to do an interview with Freeing Juanita Director Sebastián Lasaosa Rogers in early May, but he tragically died while surfing off Rockaway Beach, Queens, New York on Saturday, April 12. So, I reached out to Sebastian’s dad Paul Rogers and he connected me with Tristan Philip Call, who is one of the producers of Freeing Juanita. Here is the interview I did with him:

One of the things that makes Asbury Park so special is its music scene and one of the guys who helps make that scene so special is Sandy Mack. His story and the weekly jams he organizes are the subject of The Sandy Mack Experience, a documentary film created by his daughter Sarah Ann McCuiston and Henry Donohue Frost.
