LITTLE TROUBLE GIRLS is "a film that expertly tackles the inherent risks of its plot to deliver a film as full of irreverence and sensuality as it is of artistic sensitivity." -Sergio Burstein for @latimes.com lat.ms/44T1yTK

#LittleTroubleGirls is a sensuous choir girl drama that gives voice to queer teen desire. An incredible feature debut for everyone involved. The very definition of a hidden gem that I hope more people get to see now it’s out in the US. My review for IndieWire

The Jay Duplass film THE BALTIMORONS is a delightful, feel good, shot-on-film, down and dirty indie that feels like it escaped from the 90s. Two unlikely people (a dentist and an improv comic) spend Christmas Eve together, each with their own bullshit to work through. One of Duplass's best. Loved it
