Pushed to society’s margins, the characters and subjects inhabiting the films of this set confront the difficulties that their situations entail. Some resort to their profession’s violence (Jheff Wick) or through a friendship that makes them believe that the grass might truly be greener on the other side (Her Name is Like a Sigh). Others will come to accept their life’s station for the good of their children (Pipe Dreams). And for some, tragedy and a lack of agency over a situation results in personal devastation (Resurrection and 39). – Eric Nong


[Jheff Wick contains strong stylized violence throughout. 39 contains depictions of human suffocation throughout.]

Jheff, per his name-tag, has found himself in a desperate situation. Bound to a chair and enduring relentless interrogation, his captors demand to know the location of their missing batch of drugs. Not one to suffer an easy defeat, Jheff uses his quick thinking and unwavering determination to break free and fight his way out of the building.

As he makes his escape, Jheff comes across a young woman also gagged and bound. Without a second thought, he rushes to her aid to free her from captivity.

Please join us on Jheff's daring adventure as he embarks on a journey filled with twists, turns and unexpected challenges.
