It's a story about art -- what is art, and who gets to say?

Though at times dipping into Hallmark territory, the story of Israel 'Reefa' Hernandez is one that should be told, and lead Tyler Dean Flores is an actor who deserves to be seen.

Rated: 3/5

Celluloid Dreams

A solid social drama based on a true story about the problem with policing reminiscent of "Fruitvale Station'.

The film was moving and its conventions suitable to the premise. I cant imagine portraying an atrocious iniquity in a better way. Writer/Director Jessica Kavana did an excellent job in making this tragedy speak for itself.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars
