Telling Our Stories
A compelling collection exploring intimate perspectives and the power of rising through our own stories.
Karnama (Well of Death)
A short documentary exploring the high-stakes world of the stunt drivers of Well of Death - where passion, risk, and sacrifice collide.
Tamai
A son faces his biggest fear of reuniting with his distant father, who spent 15 years in prison, and now faces a new lifetime sentence deportation.
Divorce Resort
Married in a country where divorce is prohibited, a 72-year-old lovelorn man finds a legal loophole requiring a seven-day stay on the island of Guam. As he wanders through this tropical limbo, he reckons with his loss and newfound freedom.
Daylight
Serving a life sentence for murder, Joe Garcia finds unexpected refuge in Taylor Swift's lyrics - and the memory of a woman he hasn't seen in 21 years. When an essay he writes about love and music goes viral, it cracks open the past and rekindles a connection, opening the door to a life and love he thought were lost forever.
Sulaimani
One evening, Alia and Neena, two young Indian women, each come to dinner at Sulaimani, an Indian restaurant in Paris. The meal brings back sometimes buried emotions for them and "releases" certain memories which little by little reveal to us why they left their country. Alia could no longer stand the culture of traditional India and was in conflict with her family. Neena chose to leave to provide for her husband and children back in India. If their reasons are different, they are prey to the same nostalgia during this dinner which brings them a little closer to home.
