Refrain
Liat's life has revolved around music ever since her mother taught her to play piano as a child. Now as a young adult and her mother long gone, she begins the process of auditioning for the famous Julliard school of music in New York. Liat's embittered father has always been against the idea and has repeatedly put obstacles in her way. With his sudden death, Liat feels the last obstacle to her dream has been removed, but she is very mistaken.

Acogida (Foster Care)
NGO volunteer Teresa goes to Mariana's house to determine whether she's eligible to foster one of their refugees, but the interview takes an awkward turn when Mariana's husband, Pedro, arrives. We will discover that nothing is what it looks like in this game of cat and mouse.

In Confidence
In Confidence is a short film about Jade, a young woman working for an app company as a Listener. We spend the day with her, considering the curious inclinations of her clients to open up to a perfect stranger. This story is an exploration of wishful thinking, grief, and regret, where we quickly learn that We are all casualties of the human condition.'

Keep Calm and Tampon
This musical short follows a menstruating teen girl, and her singing uterus, who on their quest for a single tampon must battle teasing boys, tear down gender constructs and even take on the United States Government itself; all while singing, dancing, and shedding a uterine lining.

After being dismissed in the middle of an audition by an ego-maniacal director because of her large nose, Sarah decides she's had enough and goes through drastic measures to force the director and casting director to set aside their preconceived notions of beauty and give Sarah the chance she deserves.

Genderfreak
Rachel, the token straight girl in her groups of friends, is determined to ask popular jock Pete to the dance on Friday. She bumps into new kid Sammy, who identifies as genderqueer, and is put off by Sammys forward remarks. With help from her lesbian best friends Amanda and Michelle and bandmates Zach and Ryan, Rachel overcomes her fear of the unknown to find that Pete isnt her perfect match and that she actually has more in common with Sammy than she thinks as they take Wexler High by punk rock musical storm
