NARRATIVE SHORTS II: "CH-CH-CH CHANGES"
Bowie said it best, how we go from one place to the next through the interplay with the other.
PAL
A very short romantic comedy about the cyclical nature of rejection. How many times have you been "friend-zoned" this year?
WAVES
A black, deaf teen wants “waves” for prom night, but his haircut falls into the hands of an inattentive, rookie barber.
TRIBES
In this powerful and thought-provoking dark satire, the themes of identity and discrimination unfold during a train ride between two stations as an African American, an Arab-American and a white man try to rob a train. However, no one wants to rob their own race.
THE GIFT
A girl with uncommonly large ears is bullied at school but finds solace in her friendship with a crow. She feeds the bird every day and, in exchange, it presents her with gifts, until a violent encounter at school causes their ritual to take an unsettling turn.
UNDER REVIEW: KATAHDIN
In this fascinating, narrative dance piece, a young boy creates a loving friendship with a tree and her saplings, but as the boy ages, he follows his family lineage and becomes a logger.
PLAY IT SAFE
Coaxed into being typecast in a racist role in a play, drama student Jonathan is faced with a decision: challenge prejudice or play it safe.
