Fremont (out May 2) won the John Cassavetes Award (best feature made for under $1 million) at the Independent Spirit Awards and is a heartfelt, darkly funny flick about an Afghan refugee in the United States who gets a job working in a Chinese fortune cookie factory. Loved the emotionless lead performance from Anaita Wali Zada. Great cameo from Jeremy Allen White too! Grade: A-.
