ABOUT THE EVENT: These films showcase characters as they delve into new worlds unknown to them from the magical and surreal to grounded realizations. ABOUT THE FILMS: Better Life Director: Jessica Liu Producer: Annie Huang Writer: Jessica Liu USA | 11min @jessicajliu @betterlifefilm When a groundbreaking medical procedure promises to turn slackers into overachievers, an aging father sees it as his last chance to achieve the American Dream-through his unemployed adult daughter.

Glitch Baby Director: Celine Sutter Producers: Yael Bermudez, Heather Francis Writer: Celine Sutter USA | 13min @celine__sutter Set in the early 90s, “Glitch Baby” takes a quantum genre twist on the usual queer coming-of-age story when an unexpected show of affection on the soccer field leaves a young tomboy humiliated and questioning her place in the universe. In this self-defining moment, she triggers a quantum phenomenon that brings her face to face with a celestial version of herself, and through this encounter, the possibility of self-acceptance. MY KIND OF PEOPLE Director: Joe Picozzi Producers: Joe Picozzi, Lauren Germani, Alex Berard Writer: Joe Picozzi USA | 14min @joepicozzi @mykindofpeoplefilm After a DNA test uncovers his father’s adoption, a proud paesano from Providence, Rhode Island grapples with the revelation that he’s not actually Italian American, and never has been.
