Review: Finding Grace In Things We Throw Away
by Robert Encila-Celdran - May 01, 2025

What we throw away says more about us than we realize, and Joelle leans into that idea with restraint and precision.

Review: THE MINUTES Exposes the Complicity of Silence
by Robert Encila-Celdran - April 29, 2025
At the heart of THE MINUTES lies the bitter debate over the town's origin—a controversy surrounding a long-commemorated event that reveals uncomfortable contradictions under closer scrutiny.
