The 44th Bi-Annual New Jersey Film Festival will be taking place between September 5-October 10, 2025.

Each General Admission Ticket or Festival Pass purchased is good for both the virtual and the in-person shows when both are offered.

26 year old Nadia is the definition of success: good degree, great job, very accomplished in her field, and most importantly, got there without any help from a man. She is fiercely protective of her matriarchal family and friend group. When her best friend’s boyfriend asks her for help with his upcoming proposal, Nadia can’t help but feel conflicted: can she get past her predisposition against men for the sake of her friend’s relationship? Or will she sabotage the proposal in the name of protecting her from more suffering when he eventually leaves?
