"The rules in this house are set by me!" Altered Innocence has revealed their official trailer for the film The Mysterious Gaze of the Flamingo, a vibrant Chilean indie film which is the break out feature from the talented young director Diego Céspedes. It won the top prize in the Un Certain Regard section at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival earlier this year, and it has also played at TIFF, AFI Fest &#038; the Chicago Film Festival, among many others. Set in the year 1982 during the early days of the AIDS crisis in Chile. As an "unknown disease" begins to spread in a small mining town in the Chilean desert, gay men are accused of transmitting it through their eyes, only with their gaze. However in this charged environment, things aren't exactly easy for 11-year-old Lidia, who's being raised by a loving queer community led by Boa. She sets out in search of the truth. The Mysterious Gaze of the Flamingo recalls the emotional vibrancy of Almodóvar and continues Chile's proud legacy of queer cinema—marking Céspedes as one of the most exciting new voices in world cinema. Starring Tamara Cortés as Lidia, Matías Catalán, Paula Dinamarca, Claudia Cabezas, and Luis Dubó. This has been getting great reviews at the fests, with critics calling it "a finely crafted, deeply affecting [&#8230;]

"Why do you care if she takes our masks?" Netflix has unveiled a new official trailer for the next season of their animated series called Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft, based on all of the video games. With more episodes debuting in December after the show launched late last year. Picking up after the events of the highly successful Tomb Raider video game Survivor trilogy as told in 2013's Tomb Raider, 2015's Rise of the Tomb Raider, and 2018's Shadow of the Tomb Raider, the animated series follows Lara Croft as she takes on the role of the iconic tomb raider that she is destined to become. In Season 2, Lara races across the globe to uncover ancient African relics before a techno-visionary bent on playing god uses them to unleash worldwide destruction. In addition to Hayley Atwell and Karen Fukuhara returning as Lara Croft and Sam Nishimura, the new voice cast includes O-T Fagbenle as Eshu, Allen Maldonado as Zip, and Earl Baylon as Jonah Maiava. I didn't know this animated series was such a hit already! They're always trying to keep the Lara Croft / Tomb Raider franchise going outside of the games and this seems to click with viewers. Here's the main trailer for Netflix's Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft - Season 2, [&#8230;]

"Do you also live in profound sadness?" "No." 1-2 Special has unveiled their official trailer for the terrific indie film titled Un Poeta, or A Poet in English, a Colombian film from filmmaker Simón Mesa Soto as his second feature. This first premiered at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival earlier this year and it was one of my favorite films at that fest. It's hilarious. A fading poet named Oscar finds purpose mentoring Yurlady, a talented teen, though exposing her to the poetry scene might be unwise. His own years of poetic pursuits led nowhere, leaving him a stereotypical obscure writer. "Aging and erratic, he has succumbed to the cliché of the poet in the shadows." But that changes when he meets her... Starring Ubeimar Rios as Oscar, Rebeca Andrade as Yurlady, and Guillermo Cardona as Efrain. A kooky, funky, dark comedy about how our best intentions might not lead to the best results. And how sometimes pursuing art isn't really the best path for everyone. Highly recommend adding this film to your watchlist - out in US theaters in January 2026 soon. Here's the official US trailer (+ poster) for Simón Mesa Soto's dark comedy A Poet, direct from YouTube: Middle-aged and erratic, Oscar is a failed writer who has given up on life. Unemployed and living with family, [&#8230;]
