SPOTLIGHT SCREENING

Josephine's family in an elevator: mother, daughter, father.

Grand Jury Prize, Sundance Film Festival
Audience Award Winner, Sundance Film Festival

Eight-year-old Josephine (Mason Reeves) witnesses a devastating, life-altering crime while running through Golden Gate Park with her father (Channing Tatum) in this unflinching and long-lingering film from director Beth Araújo (Soft & Quiet).

Drawing from Araújo’s own childhood experience, the film marks an auspicious debut for Reeves, whose performance quickly became one of the most talked-about performances of the 2026 festival season. Tatum delivers one of his most layered performances, opposite Gemma Chen as his wife, as they navigate divergent paths toward the shared goal of finding healing for their daughter and themselves. 

“[An] instant classic…[Nothing] can shake the feeling that you’re watching something brilliant, singular, and astounding” – Katelyn Rosenberg, Rolling Stone
