Best of the Fest: Perfect Strangers
Perfect Strangers USA, 2013, 69 minutes Director: Jan Krawitz
Ellie is determined to donate a kidney, a gift of such ineffable magnitude that few around her, whether family or strangers, can comprehend it. 500 miles away, Kathy endures nightly dialysis and loses hope of receiving a transplant until Ellie reads her profile on an online website. Their paths take unexpected turns as the complicated physical and emotional terrain of organ donation unfolds over the course of four years. Perfect Strangers asks: "Could I do this, and if so, for whom?"

Families are Forever USA, 2013, 21 minutes Director: Vivian Kleiman
Tom and Wendy were devout Mormon parents living in a conservative community: attending church every Sunday, actively serving in their ward, raising five children and knocking on doors to promote support for California's Proposition 8 to prevent same-sex marriage. Then one day, Wendy read 13-year-old Jordon's diary and discovered he was gay. What happened next changed their lives forever. Their story will surprise you, give you hope and move you with the possibility of change.
