    Julian Glander’s unique style gives his animation an unusual execution. It reminds you of other animation, but it’s also unlike anything else you’ve ever seen. Its chaotic storytelling and outlandishly deadpan cast of characters will make or break your enjoyment of an animated film that feels like the exploration of an independent video game. **Full review:** https://bit.ly/BG2J

Heavy Traffic

A white dropout struggles to become a cartoonist and filmmaker, drawing inspiration from the harsh, gritty world around him. Still sharing his rundown apartment with his middle-aged parents, an oafish slob of an Italian father and a ditzy nutcase of a Jewish mother, he's ridiculed and looked down upon by his friends, hypocrites who run with violent gangs and the Italian Mafia, and a shallow Black girl who makes her living downtown with the pimps and pushers. The cartoonist gets a chance to pitch a film idea to a movie mogul, but the story proves too outrageous: a far-future Earth, depleted by war and pollution, where a mutant antihero challenges and kills God.
