High schoolers struggle with the pressure to be “pure” in this absurd coming-of-age anthology film that was made with a one-of-a-kind visual process, paired with a silent short about a young boy’s mythic love.

Fisting: Never Tear Us Apart (2022)
Dir. Whammy Alcazaren, 83min
Shot entirely on iPhone in a vertical orientation—offering the sensation of a deep dive into social media—this spy thriller about a family driven into madness explores all that lies beneath our public personas. “I wanted to have a film with a dubious villain, cheeky dialogue, and excessive explosions,” said director Whammy Alcazaren. “Spies live double lives and I feel that’s how we live through our phones—a carefully crafted image for the public to consume. We create a secret life for our loved ones and an even more secret life where we are most intimate.”
