Mimi Cave's Fresh succeeds mostly due to its confident visual language (and dance numbers), and a very snappy script from Lauryn Kahn. Altogether, it is undeniably delectable.

Writer-director-actor James Sweeney’s Twinless is a beautifully written reflection on companionship, envy, loss, and forgiveness.
