7. Night Comes On
Rating: 100%
In this slow-burning, harrowing drama by Jordana Spiro, a woman is released from juvenile detention just as she turns 18. Her mother had been murdered, so she partners with her 10-year-old sister to seek vengeance.
Beloved by the Sundance crowd, it's small but intense with critics praising its impact and how it balances darkness with a strange sense of hope.
Sample Review:
"The quest-plot puts a solid frame around what's essentially a sensitive study of a shattered family, poorly served by the social institutions meant to keep them safe." - LA Times
