Why watch this film?
Chico (Fabio Leal) is feeling horny. In the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic, when the details about the virus were still not well known, the protagonist of 'Following All Protocols' begins to devise a real attack plan. It starts with kisses through a plastic placed at the entrance of the house, caresses with a mask, fear of touch - despite the desire. With this, Leal, who also directs, shows this increasing distress, as well as the way to better understand what is happening in the world, in his life and in his routine. With scenes of sex without shame, the feature film focuses on showing the truth, without filters, and making a deep psychological portrait of a time that nobody really understood - and probably nobody will ever understand again.

I Don't Expect Anyone to Believe Me
Mexican filmmaker Fernando Frías de la Parra (of the award-winning "I’m No Longer Here") is back with an adaptation of an autofiction: the novel I Don't Expect Anyone to Believe Me ("No voy a pedirle a nadie que me crea") by Juan Pablo Villalobos. In it, the author (played here by Darío Yazbek Bernal, "New Order") plans to travel to Barcelona with his girlfriend (Natalia Solián, "The Bone Woman") to study literature. However, days before, a criminal group bursts into his life to force him into a major deal in the Spanish city, turning his stay there into a kind of noir novel. With a language closer to fiction than in his previous film (which flirted with documentary), Frías proposes here an entertaining fiction with a playful metatextual awareness. It might not be suitable for those who prefer more conventional narratives, but those looking for the opposite will greatly enjoy it.
Back on the Strip
After losing the woman of his dreams, Merlin moves to Las Vegas to pursue work as a magician, only to get hired as the front man in a revival of the notorious black male stripper crew, The Chocolate Chips. Led by Luther - now broke and broken - the old, domesticated, out-of-shape Chips put aside former conflicts and reunite to save the hotel they used to perform in while helping Merlin win back his girl.
The Blackening
There’s an unfortunate cliché (and it still persists) in many slasher horror films, where racially diverse characters often end up being the first to die in the narrative, serving as cannon fodder. Inspired by the success of Jordan Peele's 'Get Out,' 'The Blackening' is a horror comedy that starts from a simple yet incisive premise: if all the characters are black, who should die first? Thus, we follow a group of friends on a weekend getaway to a remote cabin in the woods, where they are trapped and subjected to a cruel survival game. With wit, the movie raises important questions about race and intersectionality while satirizing the perpetuation of intrinsic racism in American society and popular culture. It's a great choice if you enjoy self-aware horror films like Scream, Cabin in the Woods, to name a few examples.
