Ginger Beef
When her best friend ditches her on the first day of high school, shy and awkward Daisy must do everything she can to win her back.
The Sunday Cycle
THE SUNDAY CYCLE follows the seeming monotony of a laundromat and its customers. Told through the eyes of a narrator, who speculates on these people all the time, but never interacts with them. He makes up their lives in his head based on the little fragments that he observes.
There & Then
A love story to the track bike and a community that has formed around it.
33' Lot
Over 300 letters were sent to the residents of Vancouver Specials. 10 people responded. Do they share anything but the frames of their homes?
A-YI
An elderly Chinese woman and a group of millennial roomies make for one unlikely friendship.
No More Parties
Accurately awkward, Rose attends a karaoke party and hears a voice louder than her own in this subtly nuanced take on navigating adulthood and finding independence.
Breaking the Silence
A child of the fifties, Paul Wong grew up surrounded by racism and dominant expectations. Radical, queer, out and proud, Paul's art busts these stereotypes. BREAKING THE SILENCE is a 5-minute documentary exploring the point-of-view of a legendary multimedia artist.
Idols Never Die
When Korean pop idol “N.D.” tragically dies, a dysfunctional group of high school fan girls discover a hidden message in his music, which leads them on a quest to fulfill his final wish -- to spread his ashes over the tallest tree in their hometown forest.
