This Year’s Lineup

Three friends meet in a bar to tell a story about love in isolation. Through their story we go on a journey that will help us understand the benefits and pitfalls of hope.
“Come Along for the Ride” written by Rozina Kanchwala, directed by Christof Gleie
Two women grapple with the emotional toll of climate change, while exploring climate-migration, deciding to have children amidst environmental uncertainty, conscientious citizenship, and the significance of community. Come Along for the Ride!
“Unearthed” written & directed by Ross Barnwell
The Great War is over. Before humanity reclaims the old battlefields, two men are faced with the task of exhuming its dead.

An old and lonely man remembers his youth in colonial Africa and his choice to leave at the Independence. He needs to overcome his loss to connect with a young boy and his mother and finally find peace.
“My Tea’s Gone Cold - A Magical Love Story” written & directed by Hazel Alva
Two women, whose mental illnesses have caused them to isolate themselves, happen to meet each other at a bus stop and connect over something far more unusual and fantastical than their minds.
Group Two - Friday & Sunday night
“The Chess Club” written & directed by Ahmet Akkoc
The only thing not discussed in the Chess Club is chess. A secret society trying to figure out human nature, the Chess Club amasses admissions of guilt from its members in the name of psychology.
“A New Set of Wheels” written by Maxine Epstein, directed by Micah Epstein
After driving his car into his neighbor’s living room window, Morris an 86 year old man, has to retake his driving test and prove to the world and his daughter that he is still a vital human being whose life still matters.
“The Lake” written & directed by Laura Holme-Hoske
Cousins gather at their grandma’s house on the lake to have a moment's peace with their memories before the rest of the family arrives in town for her funeral. Peace is hard to hold onto when you need it most, but, as grandma always said, trust the process.
"Pepper Willow Poppy Sage" written & directed by Ellen Paulig
A warm evening full of romance and possibility. Watch a couple try to figure out what happened. If it happened. And how?
