This is a bold movie with a very important subject matter. Not many directors would tell the story with such a taboo subjects.
This movie deals with many "taboo" subjects and weaves them throughout the movie very well.
None of the main characters are likable yet interesting to watch. They each have their own issues and how each character deals with their shortcomings are what's interesting to watch.
But at same time, this movie is also a slasher. If you like 80s Slasher movies with characters dealing with deep emotional issues this is the movie for you.
It is a slow burner but be patient because the it all comes together at the end.

This colorful documentary follows the career of Scooter LaForge during a few tumultuous times in the United States.
As a queer teenager he struggled in a small town because he was not afraid to express his individuality. However, his struggles led him to San Francisco at the end of the AIDS crisis. After a few years, Scooter made his way to New York City, where most of the documentary takes place.
Scooter takes inspiration from his own past as well as the history of the world and the struggles of the present such as the COVID and the death of George Floyd.
I was most interested in his many collaborations and how they influenced and changed the way he expresses himself. As he began to collaborate with Patricia Field ( costume designer for Sex in the City) , fashion became one canvas he used to display his art. From paint to fabric he is able to express his unique vision of the world. He was even able to help the unhoused by raising money through the sale of his art on t-shirts.
Scooter LaForge is open and honest about his life, struggles and triumphs. The colorful cast of his friends, and collaborators makes this a very entertaining look at a man and his unique art.

I did not know what to expected out this movie but as I was watching it, I can guess where Director Chris Maes's vision came from. It has a bit of 2001, A Space Odyssey, Alien, mars and more.
It's a story of Sandra Ramirez (Played by Paige Riot) , an astronaut / inspector who was dispatch to space station to find out what happened. At the station, she finds a body, non-working AI Computer and a crew Phoebe played by Julie Kashmanian.
Why is there a dead body? What happened to the other crew? What's new secret mission XD-17?
The Space graphic were pretty cool without being overdone. Actings were spot on. Sometimes some set design can take you out of the moment but I can see how they made work within their limited budget.
Making a Indie movie a big challenge, but making a space Sci-Fi is a huge task.
The producers and director did well with what they got and if you like a crime story. You 'll like this one.
