Jane, is a young mother who takes refuge in stories. To escape her past, she realizes that she must get rid of her prince charming and create her own happy ever after. It is a timeless story that uses fairytale to explore modern issues.

Another Happy Ever After

A scrupulous lawyer with a high sense of responsibility is appointed to defend one of the accused of the so-called "ATM's crime", where three young men burned a homeless woman. A pact with the accusation seems the most obvious solution, but when she first meets her client, he strongly refuses to plead guilty.

They Remained Silent

A woman decides to have a child. She and her partner had his sperm frozen when he was diagnosed with leukemia. He passed away a year ago. We meet her after her first insemination, during the dreaded two-week waiting period between ovulation and menstruation, the Luteal phase. She has a beautiful community of friends, including her best friend, Jill. Jill couldn’t be further from “the kid shit,” but it turns out, they’re exactly who each other need as the Luteal phase comes to an end. The script is non-linear. If we’re thinking of how time works, the order would proceed as menstrual, follicular, ovulation, luteal. We hop in and out of Luteal or the “waiting phase,” as the story moves, more in a circular fashion than a line.

Luteal

Treatment has stopped. Martin is slowly dying an excruciating death. But after his wife Emily discovers her own shocking diagnosis, the two are left with an impossible decision.

Mercy
