Description

Emergency is a suspenseful thought-experiment involving a group of black and Latino teens who stumble onto a crime scene and weigh the pros and cons of calling the police. In Échappé, a soviet ballerina on tour in New York City learns of her brother’s plan to defect. The Velvet Underground Played at My High School is an enchanting animated short about the Velvet Underground's first gig in front of a crowd of dumbstruck students at a New Jersey High School. Saul's 108th Story is the charming story of how a young Saul Moroz got roped into a perilous new job: cleaning the windows of skyscrapers. Everything is Stories questions the ethics of who deserves a burial and who doesn’t, as funeral director Peter Stefan oversees the burial of Tamerlan Tszrnaev, the dead suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings. The Terrorist Hunter follows controversial spy Rita Katz on her quest to stop internet terrorism. And finally, in the beautifully shot Sundance Film Festivalwinner Fauve, two boys play in a surface mine, which ends in an unexpected and heartbreaking finale. IN PERSON: Director Allison Mattox (Échappé).
