- A despondent and sexually confused 16 year-old girl approaches a crossroads in her life and her path is altered when she meets a mysterious stranger in a diner who knows too much about her and takes an interest in her future.
- PACKED IN A TRUNK is the story of artist Edith Lake Wilkinson, committed to an asylum in 1924 and never heard from again. All her worldly possessions were packed into trunks and shipped to a relative in West Virginia where they sat in an attic for 40 years. Edith's great-niece, Emmy Award winning writer and director Jane Anderson, grew up surrounded by Edith's paintings, thanks to her mother who had gone poking through that dusty attic and rescued Edith's work. The film follows Jane in her decades-long journey to find the answers to the mystery of Edith's buried life, return the work to Provincetown and have Edith's contributions recognized by the larger art world.
- A Finished Life: The Goodbye & No Regrets Tour is a feature length documentary about Gregg Gour, a 48-year-old gay man with AIDS, who, when given six months to live, takes the road trip of his life. Gregg had been HIV positive for 24 years and during that time the side effects of the medications made him increasingly sicker than the virus itself. In the last several years he felt that his quality of life had diminished considerably, so he choose to go off his meds and no longer fight death. After giving away all of his belongings, Gregg buys an RV and travels across the United States with his dog, Cody, saying goodbye to family and friends who have to come to terms with Gregg's decision: That rather than suffer a long, painful death, he will end his own life before allowing the progressing illness to take away his independence. A Finished Life: The Goodbye & No Regrets Tour is a loving and powerful portrait of Gregg's journey, which is at turns heartbreaking and surprisingly upbeat. The filmmakers were given access to his most personal moments and the result is an open and unflinching chronicle of a man's decision to live the final chapter of his life his way.
- The Bedwetter is a quirky & off-beat coming of age story set in 1975 and follows Shelly, an almost 11 year old Tomboy who wets the bed, gets bullied at school and whose Mother killed herself a year earlier and now has to deal with her new Stepmother, a glamorous former Stewardess, who wants to throw her a birthday party. To help Shelly along the way, she has her dapper and enthusiastic best friend Dean, and Martha, a local Homeless Woman who takes a special interest in her. Further complicating things is Shelly's slight preoccupation with Abby, the cool girl at school.
- A glimpse into the day-to-day life of the director's 41 year old Brother, who is schizophrenic.
- ShortThe Letter League, founded during the Covid-19 pandemic, is a story about connection. Founder Heather Spooner, a queer artist from Traverse City, Michigan, had a large social media following and when the lock-down hit, Heather was concerned about her community and how she could help them feel connected in a time of such isolation. She wanted to help foster a sense of community when people couldn't physically be together. She created a master plan that involved a carefully constructed questionnaire and the hope that her followers would find solace in being matched with a pen pal and the opportunity to exchange letters with someone unknown to them and their world. Hundreds of people from across the U.S. and several other countries participated and formed meaningful connections during an extremely challenging time for all of us. This documentary shares the origin story of how the adult pen pal program was created and the profound results that followed. The story is told with mixed genres: Heather and her wife Christy's interviews were filmed in person, while the pen pals stories are told using their audio-only from their Zoom interviews, accompanied by ephemeral materials and archival footage mixed with motion graphics and collage animation. This helps give the viewer the same sense of anonymity that the participants experienced when meeting their new friends only through their letters. The film explores the ways we connect and how these pen pals, many of them polar opposites, began to develop profound connections, helping each other navigate major life events and challenging personal journeys; mourning losses and celebrating victories, together.
