Lobster fra Diavolo

Comedy • United States • 14:11 Minutes

Nonna (Grandma) is about to prepare her linguine lobster fra diavolo as part of the traditional Christmas Eve Feast of the Seven Fishes. She calls on vegan granddaughter, Angela, to go get the live lobster. While Angela cannot say No to her beloved Nonna, Mr. Lobster has other ideas.

Lockdown

DocumentaryDrama • United States • 5:15 Minutes

In elementary schools nationwide, students and teachers rehearse for the possibility of a violent intruder through lockdown drills.

Tied to the System

DocumentaryDrama • United States • 19:20 Minutes

A poetic protest against police brutality. Last year I began my thesis project to do my part in heightening awareness of police brutality. With that I’ve been waiting for the right to release it which is foolishness, the time is now. Please pass it along.

Zoo (Volkerschau)

Drama • United States • 11:01 Minutes

Zoo (Volkerschau) is about two girls, one African, one German, preparing to see a live show featuring an exotic creature at the World’s Fair in 1958. Same expectations, drastically different outcomes. One thing for sure; we don’t know racism until it’s taught to us.
