"Why are you following me?" "I think I know you from... somewhere." Juno Films has debuted an official trailer for an indie drama titled We Are Living Things, the latest film from Australian filmmaker Antonio Tibaldi who's telling a story about immigrants in America. This first premiered at last year's Deauville Film Festival, and it also played at the 2022 Slamdance Film Festival earlier this yea. Two immigrants living on the fringes of American society hit the road in search of the truth about a shared UFO abduction and to escape the law. The film stars Jorge Antonio Guerrero (also seen in Roma) and Xingchen Lyu as the undocumented immigrants living in New York City who meet by chance and discover a mutual passion for searching for intelligent life in the universe.

One of two films this year about men who take sex workers on road trips in search of aliens, We Are Living Things could not be more different in tone from its counterpart, Unidentified Objects. Sticking very closely to a familiar cinematic path, it aims to distinguish itself by way of style rather than substance, with a series of strong set pieces marking its spiralling path towards a transformative final shot.
Xingchen Lyu plays Chuyao, a Chinese-born woman who has been trafficked to the US, where she works in a salon and decorates the arm of mob boss Tiger (Zao Wang).

The scar on her neck is covered by a cute little tattoo. He flatters her constantly,...

Slippery and surprising, full of odd details and insights, and leaching significant visual and thematic texture from its unusual setting, Liang Ming’s “Wisdom Tooth” must be one of the year’s most remarkable debuts. Set in a depressed Chinese fishing town close to the Korean border during the first snow flurries of winter, the film is partly a crime thriller, partly a distinctly European-flavored relationship drama, but wholly . The result feels like a potent hybrid of the Chinese social realist tradition as exemplified by Jia Zhangke and the Korean independent scene of which the films of Lee Chang-dong are at the forefront.
Guxi (a terrifically ambivalent Xingchen Lyu) has a toothache. She complains about it to her half-brother Guliang (Wu Xiaoliang), with whom she has a relationship close enough for him to sponge down her back during trips to the local bathhouse. But the pain from a new back...
