Punchline

by Alicia Dattner

Take a journey into the quirky world of standup comedians, hungry-funny monsters who live in the belly, Jewish grandmothers, and wacky gurus who all think they know the answers. A dive inside the wild playground of the mind to ask the big questions: What’s life all about? Why am I here? Where are you hiding the chocolate? This poignant and bittersweet comedy speaks to the heart of what really matters.

Tolula

by Kikélomo Adedeji, directed by Craig Landry

When her illegal boyfriend, Rafi, returns home to Mexico, a heartbroken artist searches for solace in Tolula, New Mexico— population 298. Unable to find even a minimum wage job, she crosses the border to visit Rafi and falls in love all over again. Staying in Mexico is not an option for either of them but returning to the U.S. means Rafi will have to again pay a “coyote” to get him across the perilous border—this time in the 120-degree heat of the Sonora desert.
