Thursday Night: a girl comes to grips with the realities of one Thursday night as past, present, and future coincide. Through artistic cinematography, Thursday Night takes an interesting look at this girls experience (4 min. Directed by Sean Gill.). The Bronze Door: adapted from the cult story by crime novelist Raymond Chandler, The Bronze Door combines period melodrama with mystery, horror, science-fiction, and dark comedy. James Cornish is a nebbish gentleman of leisure locked in a failing marriage to Llewellyn, his domineering hausfrau. Llewellyns disappearance brings Cornish the unexpected attentions of Detective Lloyd, leading to a climactic confrontation of Man vs. Man vs. Door (20 min. Directed by Dan Gallagher.). Cubicle Genius: in this black and white homage to the Twilight Zone, Chris realizes that his co-workers are all zombies, mindlessly repeating the same tasks over and over, as if time has stopped! He tries to escape, but the building is surrounded by wasteland. We realize that Chris, like all his co-workers, is doomed to repeat these same moments forever! (12 min. Directed by Suzanne Sitelman.). Sweetie: driving through a quiet suburban neighborhood, Lilly comes across a little girl playing by herself in her front yard, without any apparent parental supervision. Concerned for the welfare of the child, she stops to examine the situation more closely. Lilly has to get involved, and find out what is going on. Her paternal instincts can't let her just leave the small child by herself. She decides she has to search the house and find out what is going on. And it may be the last mistake she ever makes (22 min. Directed by Andrew Sayre.). Fox in the Mirror is conceived as a concert: in the literal sense as a musical performance and in the figurative sense as actions occurring simultaneously. The protagonists are inanimate objects representing dancers, singers and musicians. There is a convergence of incongruent elements, the familiar and the perplexing, and the tragic and comical (20 min. Directed by Liliana Porter.).
