Tuesday

Director: Daina Oniunas-Pusic, Cast: Arinzé Kene, Lola Petticrew, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, 1h 51m, R

A mother and her teenage daughter must confront Death when it arrives in the form of an astonishing talking bird. From debut filmmaker Daina O. Pusić, Tuesday is a heart-rending fairy tale about the echoes of loss and finding resilience in the unexpected.“The details and humanity of Pusić’s storytelling have an emotional intelligence and vivid imagination that strike at the core of our existence. It’s a wonderfully realized and compassionate film, anchored by Louis-Dreyfus’ astounding performance.” —Deep Focus Review
