HART (Vanessa Williams, Seattle, 2009, 10.5min.) Amber is a young girl trying to find herself, but with a pair of antlers on her head she isn't sure whether to impress her fellow classmates or the animals at the local nature reserve.
Between Night (Scott Ballard, Portland, 2008, 17.5min.) A chance encounter frees a humble man from his routine as a street sweeper. A jazz infused homage to the spirit of longing and change.

Unexpected (Paul Maupoux, Seattle, 2008, 18min.) Against their better judgment, a couple allows a stranger into their house, only to realize he does not plan to leave.
