More: Our film this month, Secret Mall Apartment, has earned rave reviews worldwide (98% RT approval rate); here are just two:
“Thanks to its thoughtful protagonists and filmmaker Jeremy Workman, what starts out as a quirky human-interest story becomes a profoundly humane portrait of creativity and community.” – Ann Hornaday, Washington Post
“At its core, the film offers unique insights into gentrification, consumerism, and the impermanence of art.” – Naina Srivastava, Austin Chronicle
