Join us in January for Honeyjoon!
The Film Fest Prelude brings favorites from the 2026 festival back to the big screen, alongside new discoveries, on the way to the Highlands–Cashiers Film Festival, September 22–26. Join us on the first Sunday of every month for a year-round series of hand-selected films.
Honeyjoon is the 2026 Best Narrative Winner!
Honeyjoon is a surprisingly sexy, darkly funny emotional rollercoaster.
In this layered dark comedy, June and her Persian-British mom Lela travel to the romantic Azores islands for a grief anniversary, with contrasting ways of coping. A hot philosophical surfer takes them on a tour as we surf the waves of life, loss, flirting... an unforgettable ride.
In her award-winning debut feature, Lilian T. Mehrel brilliantly transforms grief, desire, and human connection into something electric, introducing a visionary new voice.
“A thrill ride” – The Hollywood Reporter “A special balance” — The New York Times “Standout… funny, sexy” – Vogue
