#BTSD (Black Traumatic Stress Disorder) examines the psychological effects that violent acts against Black Americans, as continuously displayed in the news media, have on the average person of color.

#BTSD

BTSD deals with the psychological effect police shootings of unarmed Black Americans has on the psyche of the average, everyday person.

Héctor, a man in his fifties with a good job and a family, is in the middle of a midlife crisis. His twin brother Rafael is his total opposite: a relaxed and eccentric life long partier who refuses to settle down. What if Héctor could be Rafael without anyone knowing? What would it do to him and those around him?

El Rey de la Fiesta [King of the Party]

You are a middle aged man with a good job and a family. But your life is predictable and boring.  What would you do if you could pretend to be someone else, someone more fun and no one would know?

Post-film discussion with director Salomón Askenazi and star Giancarlo Ruiz, hosted by Indy Film Fest staff Wayne Indyk and Chris Overpeck.
