City Wide Fever (2025) 90% EDIT “If you get on its wavelength over the course of its very brief 70 minutes (sans credits), you might even start to feel a small twinge of nostalgia. ... Makes more sense as a call-back to grimy indie film and B-movies, or as a satire of them. ” – ScreenAnarchy Apr 14, 2026 Full Review Micro Budget (2024) 85% EDIT “The cutoff's very simple when it comes to comedies: is it funny? And on that count, Micro Budget succeeds, going for cringe humor that's obviously inspired by The Office. ... A pretty hilarious takedown of current moviemaking.” – ScreenAnarchy Mar 2, 2026 Full Review ClearMind (2024) 100% EDIT “At the very least, ClearMind has more on its mind than being disposable, and it remains interesting by virtue of trying to do so much.” – ScreenAnarchy Jan 16, 2024 Full Review A Life on the Farm (2022) 96% EDIT “"Goes from a budding backwoods horror picture to an uplifting story of an unlikely DIY guerrilla filmmaker."” – ScreenAnarchy Apr 18, 2023 Full Review Irreversible: Straight Cut (2020) 90% EDIT “Love it or (most likely) hate it, this is a movie that causes an impact and isn’t easily forgotten.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 17, 2023 Full Review Güeros (2014) 93% EDIT “A stylish and trippy film which at times has a sort of Trainspotting vibe, minus the heavy drug use and thick Scottish accents.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Refugee (2014) EDIT “By avoiding cheap melodrama and over-the-top histrionics, Diego Lerman has made a mature movie that at no point makes the viewer feel as if the movie is preaching to them.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review To Kill a Man (2014) EDIT “For those willing to give it a chance, they'll find that Almendras has given a fresh spin to an often-trod genre.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Good Old Boys (2014) EDIT “Villarán's intentions are sincere, and that goes a long way towards smoothing out the rough edges.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Guard Dog (2014) EDIT “A slow-burn psychological study of a difficult character, making for an interesting premise for a Peruvian film.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review The Fire (2015) EDIT “It has nothing to do with ghosts or monsters, but it's just as hair-raising and uncomfortable, suggesting horrors of a different, everyday sort. ” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review La luz en el cerro (2016) EDIT “Heavily indebted to local folklore and urban legends, La Luz en el Cerro is a solid and well-made genre exercise with a clear Peruvian flavor.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Epitaph (Epitafio) (2015) 78% EDIT “Stripping the film down to the essentials allows Olaizola and Imaz to focus on its most compelling aspect: a raw, almost primal story of man versus nature.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review One Last Afternoon (2016) EDIT “La Última Tarde is a film that gives a more humane and grounded view of Peru’s turbulent past, aided by some excellent acting.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review I.T. (2016) 9% EDIT “I.T. is really nothing original, adding a few high-tech bells and whistles to an age-old tale you’ve seen many times before.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review The Entity (2015) EDIT “Peruvian directors are just starting to try their hand at a genre which has been around for a long while. As more of them attempt to scare audiences, they'll hopefully improve on what came before.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Vanish (2015) EDIT “Thrillers are rare in Peruvian cinema; this one doesn't always succeed at building tension, but it's a respectable effort.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Two Kisses: Troika (2015) EDIT “Despite its generic title, which has little to do with what transpires, Two Kisses throws out enough twists to be worthwhile.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Wexford Plaza (2016) 100% EDIT “There’s some subtle humor to offset what could have been a pretty sad tragedy, and really, just like in real life, sometimes all you can do is laugh.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Neighborhood Food Drive (2017) EDIT “Jerzy Rose fully commits to his absurdist, black comedy tone and it works wonders; he wants you to point and laugh at these morons just as much as he is.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Birds Without Feathers (2018) EDIT “Birds Without Feathers is very perceptive about modern human interaction; there’s a universal truth behind its eccentricities that makes it a compelling watch.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Ruben Blades is Not My Name (2018) 60% EDIT “More than anything, this documentary is a celebration of Blades the Musician. His talent and contribution to the genre of salsa cannot be underestimated.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Temporada de Caza (2017) 100% EDIT “Avoiding even a whiff of schmaltz, Garagiola builds towards a climax that deftly skips the feel-good sentiment your typical Hollywood film would take for granted.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Rey's Education (2017) EDIT “Argentine cinema is particularly effective when it comes to urban-set crime yarns, and this one is no exception.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Invisible Life (2019) 94% EDIT “There’s not a single second wasted in a story which is not just about the strength of family bonds, but also doubles as an indictment of old-fashioned gender stereotypes.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review
