Another Earth (2011)

Another Earth: A pretty strong drama rather than a science fiction

This startling apparition gives a deeper meaning to everything in the story, especially when it is discovered, that the planet is indeed, as the title promises, another Earth.

Tribeca Review for ‘Little Woods’

Little Woods is a gritty thriller set among women on the losing side of the petroleum-drilling boom that was supposed to make America great again. It’s also a western that’s true to the rugged West of today, where the scramble for resources leaves casualties all around. Nia DaCosta’s heartland tale, rough around some edges, is a promising feature debut.
