The summer before college, bright-yet-irreverent Elliott comes face-to-face with her older self during a mushroom trip. The encounter spurs a funny and heartfelt journey of self-discovery and first love as Elliott prepares to leave her childhood home.
Writer-director Megan Park’s tender, surprising sophomore feature cleverly uses its high-concept premise of a visit from one’s future self to launch a refreshing, nuanced exploration of the uncertainties of young romance and coming of age. My Old Ass is a sweet teenage love story, a lively contemporary comedy, and a quirky riff on time-travel films all in one.
Maisy Stella and Aubrey Plaza have a terrific unlikely chemistry, as the sass and self-assuredness of the young Elliott, as played by Stella, blends and overlaps with Plaza’s sardonic humor as a more mature Elliott. The care and affection shown in the film’s depiction of Elliott’s rural hometown in her last days before taking off for adulthood visually highlights her emotional journey, evoking a nostalgia for days that haven’t even ended yet.—HZ

Documentary filmmaker Nerijus Milerius (“Exemplary Behaviour”) invited his former student Lina Lūžytė (“Together Forever”, “The Castle”) to direct this Lithuanian psychological thriller while investigating Japanese disappearances. Genius cinematographer Vytautas Katkus (worked on Locarno winner “Toxic”) captures the dark subject matter perfectly, jumping between moving cars and shooting in time-lapse.
Actress Žygimantė Jakštaitė (“Runner”) plays Lina, a Vilnius morgue medic who becomes fascinated by the mysterious disappearance of a sailor named Vilkas (Wolf). Her obsession leads her to eerie places and disturbing encounters. The clock is ticking as Lina searches for the lost man.
In 1960s Quebec, Agathe, an asthmatic child with a vivid inner world, grows up in an isolated suburb, lulled by the haunting sounds of a passing night train that spark her longing for an elusive elsewhere. Her mother Thérèse (the remarkable Larissa Corriveau), a secretary by day and artist by night, creates a tender, offbeat daily life with her flamboyant friend Maurice, a fashion designer. As Agathe grows up, she meets Frank (Lennikim), a young writer whose dreams of a Japanese heroine strike a mysterious chord within her. For her directorial debut, the great Marie Brassard crafts a mystical and mesmerizing, visually exquisite tale, where past and future, dream and reality intertwine. Infused with mythological legends, quantum physics, and magical realism, this coming-of-age journey is also a moving exploration of identity and the mysteries of space and time.
