The night begins with shorts program InFocus: Native Cinema, which offers a collection of short films from Native and indigenous filmmakers that explore questions of identity, femininity, cultural preservation and revival, and poetic resonance in the everyday.
The evening continues with Shorts Program #2: The Monsters Inside, a collection of thoughtful, and at moments haunting, examinations of protagonists metaphorically at odds with their bodies.
The conclusion of the program is the World Premiere of Up The 5, an eclectic and character-driven comedy that navigates a range of comedic styles as it follows the path of a lime green VW bus up the 5 Freeway in pursuit of a pair of con artists in a stolen Cadillac. Up The 5 is the first feature by director Gabriel Adams.
