Join us weekly as Rotten Tomatoes reports on what’s indie features are streaming. From promising releases by new voices to experimental efforts from storied filmmakers – or perhaps the next indie darling to go the distance for end-of-year accolades – we will break it all down for you here each week.
This week in our Indie Fresh List, we have a supersized edition featuring a pair of horror features, a doc about climate activist Great Thunberg, an period LGBTQ romance, and a buddy comedy. In our indie trailers section, we have clips featuring Bella Thorne, Priyanka Chopra-Jonas, and Melissa McCarthy.
