Live from New York City

The Moviewallas are back at Tribeca! Join Joe, Rashmi, and Yazdi as they return to one of their favorite festivals — in person! In this episode, they share fresh takes, surprising favorites, and heartfelt reactions to four standout films from Day 1 of the 2025 Tribeca Film Festival:

Videoheaven – A passionate, three-hour documentary love letter to the bygone era of video rental stores, narrated by Maya Hawke and directed by Alex Ross Perry.

What Marielle Knows – A sharp, unsettling drama about a girl who gains the terrifying ability to hear her parents’ private thoughts. For fans of Yorgos Lanthimos and Force Majeure.

Little Trouble Girls – A beautifully crafted Slovenian coming-of-age tale set in a convent, exploring faith, peer pressure, and adolescent desire with emotional honesty.

The Square – A haunting adult animation about a forbidden romance between a Swedish diplomat and a North Korean traffic officer, told with aching melancholy and visual grace.

Whether you’re a film buff or just curious about indie gems, this episode is for you. No video this time—just the raw, sleep-deprived but passionate audio-only coverage straight from NYC.
