This week, we're on coming of age duty with Sean Wang's directorial debut DIDI (06:22) followed by the restoration of Ayoka Chenzira's ALMA's RAINBOW (23:11) and animated saga KENSUKE'S KINGDOM directed by Neil Boyle and Kirk Hendry (40:31).

Plus, in our HOT TAKE (52:23), with Robert Downey Jr. set to earn $80 million for returning to the MCU as the villainous Doctor Doom, we ask if creatives demanding massive, multi-million paychecks is worth the money.
