ABOUT THE EVENT:

It’s the last block of PROOF, and we have three final films for you! The films in this block reexamine things you thought you already understood: birds, a courtroom and even a house. The characters are then cornered and have to unlearn to grow their understanding of the world around them. We hope you enjoy the final films of PROOF 2025!
