“In This Moment” follows Love, a trans woman navigating the complexities of polyamory and self-discovery in a world that often challenges her right to exist. As she unravels what it means to be truly seen and cherished, she confronts the ways love manifests—fluid, unpredictable, and boundless, much like the ocean itself. This story is a testament to resilience, intimacy, and the ever-shifting tides of identity and belonging.

Raw follows Arturo, as he sneaks out for his first hookup with another man. During the encounter, his shame around sex and intimacy begins to physically manifest as rotting blistering skin. When he returns home to find his mom, Manuela, back from work earlier than expected, he must conceal the spreading rot and confront his sexuality, all while facing his fears of potentially disappointing his hard working immigrant mother.

After his undefeated streak is destroyed, a wrestler submerges into limbo and must find a way out.

A Colombian family is forced to celebrate Thanksgiving, for the first time, after finding out that their eldest son has invited the man he likes to a holiday celebration at their house, creating tension among the family members.

Sunday at Il Posto Accanto is a deeply personal, hybrid film blending documentary techniques with narrative storytelling. Set in a beloved East Village restaurant during the early days of reopening after the pandemic, it stars Victor Rasuk, Danny Hoch, and the real people who made the place a sanctuary for community. At once funny and poignant, the film is a meditation on grief, resilience, and the small rituals—both absurd and sacred—that keep us connected. It’s rich with character, brimming with the kind of imperfect charm only real life can deliver. Il Posto is about a neighborhood, a family—chosen and otherwise—and the quiet beauty of coming together after isolation. Made on a modest budget with a lot of heart, it captures a moment in time when the simple act of gathering felt nothing short of holy.
