Mikrós Soldier by Nathan Fitch - 50min
Micronesian Pacific Islanders are not US citizens, yet they enroll in the US military - and die - at disproportionately high rates.

The Liberation of Helène Aylon by Kelly Spivey - 25min
This intimate film portrait explores how a woman raised in an Orthodox, working class community became a radical feminist conceptual artist, commandeering a monumental cross-country trip to "rescue" nuclear contaminated earth. Helène Aylon will charm and mystify you with her endlessly hopeful view of humanity, art and her faith.

This personal and political story vibrantly investigates the heritage of command, mythology, gender fluidity and womyn’s power in indigenous Yorùbá spirituality.

La Noche Buena by Alex Mallis - 18min
