Here's a look at five titles that flew under the radar at TIFF:
As the world slips into a deepening climate crisis, a group of young activists band together to plot the destruction of a West Texas pipeline. Their plan is to disrupt the oil market with a meticulous attack, but they aren't ignorant of the ethical questions that haunt their actions. Director Daniel Goldhaber's provocative thriller pieces together the stories of a disparate team so disillusioned by failed peaceful demonstrations that they're willing to risk everything.
"Riceboy Sleeps" will inevitably be compared to 2020's Korean-American film "Minari" by some, but its heart is more meditative, partly due to Christopher Lew's gentle and mesmerizing cinematography. Lead actress Choi Seung-yoon delivers a vulnerable performance, while Ethan Hwang's understated role as a conflicted teen is a reminder of how few Asian male adolescents get ample screen time in North American films.
