Review | A LITTLE PRAYER - "A deeply kind film, the kind of film that restores one's faith in independent filmmaking, but in humanity."

Now available on Blu-Ray and DVD from @musicboxfilms.com!
A Little Prayer | 2025 β€” From the Front Row
The first word that that popped into my head after watching Angus MacLachlan's altogether wonderful A Little Prayer was "kind." This is a deeply kind film, the kind of film that restores one's faith...

Highly recommended: Secret Mall Apartment on Netflix. It’s a documentary about the group of artists that lived inside the Providence Place Mall for four years. It’s a film about the importance and joy of art and community, about finding your place in a world that’s working against you.

Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne return to the screen with the deeply affecting YOUNG MOTHERS, a portrait of four resilient women who yearn for a more hopeful life away from the harrowing challenges they currently face.
