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.

Mixtape for Stom Sogo doesn’t feel like a documentary trying to explain its subject. It feels more like someone sitting with unresolved thoughts and letting them unfold. Directed by Adrian Goycoolea, the film is framed around a response to the last email he received from his friend Stom Sogo before he died. This is not a biography or a structured story. It’s a conversation with someone who isn’t there anymore, full of hesitation, memories, and questions that don’t get answered.
Annie, wake up is an experimental film by Laura Ivins, an experimental filmmaker based in Southern Indiana. Ivins has been working on this film for over a decade, beginning to collect footage in 2012. The project developed slowly over time and does not follow a traditional narrative. Instead, the film grew out of years of careful reflection and revisiting the material, and that thoughtful process is a big part of how it feels. The work carries a strong sense of time passing and allows meaning to form gradually rather than being forced.
