Best Picks of The Month

A new year, and new Best Picks! Let’s kick it off again. The Best Picks of The Month highlight our Daily Short Picks that resonated the most with us and our audience. These are the best picks for the month of January 2025.

These four short films explore individuality, nostalgia, and the search for meaning in unexpected ways. The Lemon Yellow Tights with Cats by Peter Molnar follows an eccentric woman who struggles with self-acceptance as societal judgment slowly unravels her identity. Evergreen by Zachary Zebrowitz delves into buried secrets and strained friendships when a summer retreat takes a dark turn. The M Word by Shane Crosland offers a sharp and witty glimpse into the life of a jaded bartender navigating his unconventional worldview. Meanwhile, Final First Edition by Wes Sterrs blends documentary with cinematic nostalgia, chronicling one man’s obsessive quest to reprint the first-ever Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic using the original 1984 techniques. Each film presents a unique lens on self-discovery, obsession, and the often-unexpected paths we take in pursuit of fulfillment.
